Andrew's Bio

To the left is a picture of me near the top of Mt. Lemmon -- the only location of snow in Tucson, Arizona.

Currently in high school, I run cross-country and track (one-mile and two-mile). I have a deep love for all Minnesota sports, but I have a deeper love for my Creator, Jesus Christ. I believe that I am saved by grace, through faith in Christ alone. I hope to bring you entertaining and relevant articles while I rant on whichever Minnesota sport happens to be struggling.

I recently came closer to Mexico when I moved to Tucson, Arizona, but moved farther away from my Minnesota sports.

No, I don't limit my interests to Minnesota sports. I love all sports, but I tend to gravitate towards the NFL. I will try to find peace with Arizona fans and maybe pick up a team or three.

I may have to see someone about this, but I almost enjoy the NFL off-season better than the regular season...

...maybe it's something in the 100-degree-at-8-am-air...(but don't worry, it's a dry heat)...

I love to come home on Sunday to three football games, then another on Monday. A birthday suggestion of mine would be MLB.TV.

I was also asked to blog the Twins at TwinsFix.com. I really enjoy doing that daily, so drop by and tell me what you think!

I am one of the Minnesota Twins Community Leaders here on Bleacher Report, in addition to being one of the NFL Community Leaders. Feel free to drop me a line if you want!

On a side note, I was the feature story on SI's Campus Clicks for July 22nd, 2008. Here's the link:

I also write a blog called Primary Focus.

  1. Adrian Peterson is arguably the best running back in the NFL. Even as an Eagles fan, I love to watch him play.

    But the Vikings better be sure not to overwork him in the upcoming years...

  2. Here's my profile of O's minor leaguer Mike Flacco. Yes, he is Joe Flacco's brother.

    http://bleacherreport.com/articles/211283-mike-flacco-thirty-first-round-pick-following-in-brothers-footsteps?just_published=1

  3. There are some athletes you're not allowed to criticize.

    Michael Jordan. Tiger Woods. Lance Armstrong.

    Sandy Koufax is one of those guys.

    I've always felt he was overrated. I hear people talk about him as the greatest left-handed pitcher of all-time, and I've never agreed.

    I did a little bit of research and this is what I came up with. I would love if you could take a look. I spent more time on this than any article I have ever written in my entire life, and as a result, it is LONG.

    I actually had to trim it a little - evidently articles can't be over 5,000 words - but I like what I came up with. You don't have to read it all, but I would love if you would.

    Thanks.

  11. For my 400th article, I decided to tackle a subject that is near and dear to my heart.

    I would greatly appreciate it if you could take the time to read it and comment. I think it's something very important for us to recognize, particularly in light of today's Civil Rights game.

    Thanks, Bob
