About Steve »

I am a life-long sports fan who always tries to find a way to stay close to the games I love. After my playing days came to an end, I continued to cover sports for my school's newspaper in college. I no longer cover sports professionally, but I love to write and share my opinions, analysis and thoughts with others. Thanks for checking out my profile.

hey man, where have you been writing-wise? I haven't commented on your stuff yet, but I've read it and liked what I saw. You should hop back on that horse and make some bad decisions with your typing fingers.

and while you're at it, check out my article on NFL free agent quarterbacks:

Thanks for the link on that article about ESPN coverage! ESPN really do look like a bunch of tools after deciding to go with the story after barely acknowledging it at first. I still don't think Fox and Glazer did a great job initially breaking the story though. Too many holes that could have been plugged early and easily. As noted toward the end of Stew's article as well, ESPN had coverage on the Tom Brady-Patriot story which is just as bad as the Favre story. Sloppy coverage is becoming the norm for a lot of media outlets today, which is why I question EVERYTHING. That tidbit about myself even annoys me sometimes. But news without facts is just rumor.

Yes, tough times for the Badgers. I feel for them... have a bunch of family that went to school there are a big time Badger fans.
But hey, look on the bright side, the Packers got back on the track.... and the Central is a very winnable division this year.

So you're a Cubs fan living in Wisconsin? Must be tough. What about football - are you a Bears fan or Packers? It's one thing to be a Cubs fan there, but I would imagine it would be considered blasphemous to not be a fan of the Pack there...

Thanks for the pick and welcome to BR Steve. Your writing looks promising, keep it up. As Cubs community leader, if you need any help let me know. In addition to writing, you can help our community by reading & commenting & helping to raise debate. Keep up the good work and thanks again.
