Shari's Bio

I am lucky enough to have been born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA. An avid (NOT bandwagon) Pittsburgh-teams fan, I am still able to appreciate a good game- as long as it doesn't entail a Patriots or Islanders victory.

Favorite Athletes

Jerome Bettis, Aaron Smith, Joe Montana, Gary Anderson, Mario Lemieux, Wayne Gretzky, Cal Ripken,Jr, Sidney Crosby, Jeff Bagwell
Favorite Sports Teams

THE PITTSBURGH STEELERS, Penguins, Pirates...Chicago Bears, Houston Texans, Navy Midshipmen, Houston Astros, Penn State Nittany Lions

Ben Roethlisberger's tackle of Harper after the Bettis fumble in the AFC divisional game 2005 against the Colts (and the subsequent missed field goal).
Most Memorable Game Attended

Cleveland/ Pittsburgh divisional playoff game-1995 at Three Rivers Stadium. It was FREEZING (not Lambeau freezing, but cold enough), but the house was rocking and the Steelers won.
Most Unbreakable Sports Record

321 Consecutive games for Jeff Feagles in the NFL is pretty safe as is 2632 consecutive for Cal Ripken, Jr in MLB.
Ruth or Mays?

Babe Ruth- the Sultan of Swing

Oh Joe! Montana is the clear choice
Pele or Maradona?

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

Hey Shari—Dave Mo here, a Bleacher Report Community Coordinator.

I've been spending time on our NFL page and read a couple of your old articles. Really on-point analysis...you do good work.

Given that you haven't written in a while, I thought I'd check in and see if you're interested in picking up your coverage again. What do you say?

If not, it would be great if you could give me some feedback on why you decided to stop writing and what we could have done to better serve you. If you wouldn't mind, please shoot me a line at dmorrison@bleacherreport.com with any thoughts.

Thanks so much,

Dave Mo

Did you see what the Bungals fan wrote about the Browns and Steelers? I think he is mentally challenged. Then again he IS from Cincinnati...

My goodness, I have enough trouble with a 4 and 7 year old! :)

The bowling thing went well. My wife lost, but she was able to bring the kids on TV for the interview afterwards. I was able to keep them under control for the most part...Emma (my 4 year old) was off camera for most of the time. But you'll probably hear her!

I think the show is going to be on TV in April. Hopefully I'll be able to post some clips.

Thanks for the kind words!

Hey! I am planning on doing an NFL Roundtable, and I would like you opinions. Do you have an email where I can send you the questions?

Thanks!

There's nothing wrong with more than one take on the same topic! By all mean, leave it up.

Hey Shari,

I just wanted to let you know that Bleacher Report has launched out of beta with an updated look and feel and some great new features. Check out the "Game On" link in the header to find out more.

Next week we'll be launching the site to the world with some public announcements—and it'd be great to get a contribution from you between now and Tuesday to make Bleacher Report's launch a success.

Let me know if you need any help with ideas or have questions. Have a great weekend Shari!

Did anyone ever find out if they were in cahoots? Did Neil tell Larry he'd throw him two of the worst passes in NFL history before the game? I bet Neil got a piece of Larry's Raider signing bonus.
