Tyler's Bio

I'm a journalism student at the University of Georgia (a senior I guess now, which is terrifying), and a sports writer/former sports editor at The Red & Black, where I've covered pretty much every sport at Georgia (sports writer used to be one word according to AP, but they changed it, which really annoys me, even though it probably shouldn't have been one word to begin with).

Just finished covering gymnastics (four-time defending national champs) and baseball (NCAA runners up) last semester, to cover football in the fall. Omen?

I'm the shaggy brother in the back.

Currently filling the oh-so-prestigious and self-explanatory title of "Bleacher Report Sports Editing Intern."

Tyler Writes About

The Short List facts and information about Tyler Estep

Favorite Athletes

Greg Maddux, Juan Pierre, Yunel Escobar. This changes a lot, except for Maddux.

Favorite Sports Teams

Atlanta Braves, Georgia's pretty cool too.

All Time Sports Moment

The 1995 World Series. Glavine's eight shutout innings, David Justice's solo shot and Marquis Grissom streaking into left-center field to make the final out still gives me chills. Even if I was only like eight when it happened

Most Memorable Game Attended

John Smoltz-Greg Maddux, Braves-Padres last year. Maddux gets huge standing ovation when gets up to the plate, rips a single on the first pitch from Smoltzie, and gets good-naturedly booed. Priceless.

Most Unbreakable Sports Record

Nolan Ryan's no-hitters. Nobody ever talks about this...

Ruth or Mays?

Ruth. Duh. What's not to love about a fat, hot-dog eating, beer-drinking, womanizing wonder of a man.

Unitas or Montana?

Montana. Showmanship is for weenies

Jordan or Russell?

Jordan. Hands down.

Gretzky or Orr?

Gretzky...isn't his nickname "The Great One" for Christ's sake?

Pele or Maradona?

Pele. I hate soccer. I don't even know who Maradona is.

Federer or Sampras?

um...Federer?

Tiger or Nicklaus?

Eldrick

Petty or Earnhardt?

don't particularly care, but I'd have to say Earnhardt.

Schumacher or Senna?

well, I don't know who Senna is, so Schumacher (this is racing right?)

Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

Hahaha. SEC. Best at everything.

    Hey big guy, wondering if you could take a look at this for me. Made the mistake of posting it on the weekend when a lot of people aren't on here editing.

    Thanks a lot.

    Thanks for the edit and feedback. I tried to break the paragraphs up as much as I could, but it always helps to get a little outside help.
