About

I'm a sports journalist and an avid FC Barcelona and Football fan.
I don't shy away from polemic topics or from debating new ideas.
But I don't like to reply to people who insult and attack me personally.
If you like how I write, remember to be my fan on b/r :D

Milestones here at b/r:

I've worked and written in TV sports shows and newspapers in Mexico.
