Chris's Bio

Hey there, I'm just a sports fan that wants his thoughts out there for you, the masses. Heh. I haven't been able to post stories as often as I'd like, but such is life. I'll try to get articles up here for your enjoyment on a slightly more regular basis.

The Short List What Chris thinks about sport's most pressing questions

Favorite Athletes

Ray Lewis, Cal Ripken
Favorite Sports Teams

Baltimore Ravens, Baltimore Orioles, Golden State Warriors, San Jose Sharks
All Time Sports Moment

It's gotta be "The Catch" from Super Bowl XLII. That's not even my team and that is easily the greatest, and most epic play I've ever seen in a clutch situation.
Most Unbreakable Sports Record

Favre... all of them, from the TD's to the interceptions to the consecutive starts.
Ruth or Mays?

Mays was better, but i like Ruth, what a legend
Unitas or Montana?

Montana
Jordan or Russell?

Jordan
Gretzky or Orr?

Pele or Maradona?

Federer or Sampras?

Tiger or Nicklaus?

Petty or Earnhardt?

Earnhardt
Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

I love how physical the Big 10 is... I love how fast the Pac 10 is.. but the SEC combines both and makes for the hardest division in the NCAA, at least as far as football is concerned

Yeah, the Orioles are in first place right now. But are they a contender or a pretender? Check out my Division Leader Contenders/Pretenders piece and see what you think.

Hey Chris,

I have recently been chosen as a contestant in AM 1570 WNST’s King of Baltimore Sportstalk Competition to see if I can fulfill a dream of blogging and doing radio for a living. Since you were kind enough to become a fan of my work here on Bleacher Report, I wanted to personally invite you to take a look at my new blog at WNST.net. The link can be found here:

http://wnst.net/wordpress/lukejones/

Please read and comment (as always, agree or disagree as much as you want!) on my work. The competition will also include a voting element that will begin in the near future. My goal is to bring you the same analysis and focus on sports (with a Baltimore-based focus) that I have tried to do since joining Bleacher Report in August 2008.

Thank you so much for your support!

Let's admit it--the position of quarterback is maybe the most fascinating position in all of sports. It's definitely the most carefully analyzed position. Here is a list of the best of the best...of the best--the 10 greatest seasons by a quarterback in the history of the NFL.

Willie Mays, Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Cy Young, Nolan Ryan. Yes, we think we know who the best ever are. Please comment. This is one I did more research than usual on.
