About Alan »

I'm going to school at Western Carolina. Kevin Martin of the Kings also went to WCU.My favorite sports NFL, NBA and College Basketball. I write about sports because I love to be around them. Some people don't think they are important when you consider other aspects of the world. That is true but I'm addicted and I love sports. Sometimes we are to obsessed with T.O, Tom Brady and Micheal Jordan, but its hard for me not to be in awe of what they do in there respective sports. In short my message is: Love sports, keep your head on, only bet sometimes and play them yourselves.

Hi , did you see the NY sports page on BR? it is not doing to well. it only has 4 fans, i think we should make it better and take the page under are wing, its time to for us to represent NY and show the world what this great place is all about. I asked Angel Navedo to be the community leader, we will see what he says. A few have already joined, Are you in ?

We always read articles about the best players, best teams, who's overrated and who's not. I thought I would take a different approach with this one - The Official Bleacher Report Guide for How to Debate Properly, and I would love your opinion.

I've got the running backs article put together, just a quick question about putting it together. Are we doing slideshow articles or does it matter? I was planning on doing 5 stars and 5 bust running backs if thats cool
