Neel's Bio

I am from New Jersey, love all sports, write for my blog at cover3.com, and love reading and writing about sports as well as watching and playing.

I will post select articles on bleacher report, if you want to read all my articles you can visit cover3.com. It is new though, so I don't have that many articles.

I am creative and have an opinion about everything haha. I'm also open to feedback. Enjoy.

Hey Neel,

I recently wrote an article as a tribute to the voice of the Yankees Bob Sheppard. To some he is better know as "The Voice of God," but unfortunately his sickness continues. He deserved recognition for his 58 years of service to the Yankees, and I tried my best to give it to him. Would love to hear your thoughts. Talk to you soon!
