Paul's Bio

I live in South Carolina and enjoy writing about football, basketball and whatever else.

My favorite teams are the Miami Dolphins and Miami Heat and I follow both extremely closely. I am a Community Leader of the Dolphins, so if you have any questions feel free to send me a message.

And thank you to anyone who's edited, commented, or rated any of my articles. You guys are the best.
