AI won't retire after this year anyway.
I'm back on Bleacher Report after a long hiatus and ready to write some great articles. Right now, I'm in graduate school at Georgetown studying Sports Industry Management, and I hope to provide some unique perspectives.
Some of the regular features I hope to provide are:
Through the Telescope: focusing on big issues in sports, both past and present
Locally Grown: focusing on issues local to me, both in DC and Philly
Check My Watch: focusing on current news and events
Got a Light?: focusing on the humorous side of sports

Letting of steam feels good. But watching your team fall apart doesn't.
If you could read my opinion on the latest nonsense the Eagles are up to, it would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, February 28, 2009 is a day I won't be forgetting for a long time. Hopefully, you never have to experience the pain of your all-time favorite athlete leaving your team...and if you have experienced it, I hope you never have to go through it again.

Hey,
Below is my preview for the Phillies 2009 Season. The only difference is I included the Phillies community into this one. It is quite long, but it is complete, I'll tell you that much. Spent a bunch of time on this, would appreciate it if you checked it out.

Ross,
Right now we all need to take time out of our day, and pray for Jim Johnson. The Philadelphia Eagle's defensive coordinator who was diagnosed with skin cancer. Let me know what you think. Thanks
