About Michael »

Sports and writing have always been on Michael's shortlist of favorite activities, and when he finally realized that the two could be meshed into one, his world has never been the same.

Since joining Bleacher Report in September of 2008, Michael has become an active member of several communities, contributing in both writing and editing.

Four of his articles were chosen as "Pick of the Day", one of which won on two consecutive days.

Apart from writing, Michael also enjoys reading real articles from real fans. He enjoys seeing every side of every story and engaging both readers in writers on article message boards.
