Shan's Bio

I am seriously the craziest Jazz fan in the world. No one I know knows as much about them as I do. Its a little borderline obsession but thats ok, its all love. Ive never been to a game they lost and I guarantee if I was able to get season tix, and travel with the team they would go 82-0...haha....but anyway, Im going to nursing school and Im a philosophy major so I love to write, and argue, so..this seems to work!! maybe I should make a career out of it? nah, its just my side thing...go Jazz you beezy!!

hey I saw all your comments to that Pivot Article about the Jazz being the same.
Way to defend the Jazz! The write obviously knows nothing about the Jazz if he thinks last year they played to their potential. Its such a joke what some people think of us. They really have no clue.
If anyone thought the Jazz were all healthy at any point last season they're just kidding themselves. I get tired of hearing other teams deal with injuries. If anyone in the West had the injuries we had they wouldn't' have made the playoffs except LA.
Can't wait for the season to begin!

Hey Shan

The Raptors have made another move however, I don’t agree with this one!
Here’s my take on the player they should have acquired Jodie Meeks.
Comments and critiques are always welcomed

Hi Shan
Hope your summer is starting off well. I was wondering if you got Rory's 'assignment' regarding the Jazz off-season moves and draft/trade speculation? I'd REALLY like to read your take on same. Seems like a lot of potential for activity...

Hope you do it!

Hey,

Today I look back at one of the modern comeback stories that has touched fans of all kinds. This story is about a modern day marvel who had a bright future, only to be setback by abuse of his body. This comeback story of Josh Hamilton himself describes why, nobody is perferct.

Enjoy
