About Josh »

I was born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA and have grown up a die-hard Steelers fan. I've also grown up with two Virginia Tech graduates and so I developed a loyalty to the Hokies. My other major loyalty lies with Coach Krzyzewski and the Duke Blue Devils. My Grandfather played basketball for Duke and it is his influence that has made me one of the Duke faithful. I am currently a Newpaper Journalism Major at Syracuse University with aspirations to become a profesional sports writer. My weak point as a writer is most certianly my lack of skills in the area of spelling and grammar. So if you find mistakes in that catagory please point them so I can improve in this area.

I liked your "Game Notes" article, but suggest you correctly spell Cincinnati in the title. ;)

What up everyone? I wrote an article about the changes here on B/R over the last couple of months, and about some of the things that we used to have, that we don't anymore. If you could, check it out.

As I have said in the past, many times, I am not on here for AOTD votes, but I believe that if enough of you give me your AOTD vote, then maybe the higher ups will bring back some of the things that are gone.

Thanks a bunch, I really appreciate it.

This is probably not your favorite sport, but it's something that I have just found a passion for writing about: tennis. As crazy as it sounds, I wrote an article about the sport and really enjoyed writing it. Please check it out if you get the chance. Thanks!

P.S. Who was your grandfather that played at Duke? Pretty cool stuff.
