About Jason »

I've lived in the Sacramento area for about 30 years. I grew up going to A's and Kings games with my Dad. I can remember when the Kings moved to town. I grew up rooting for the Kings, A's and 49ers and still do, as hometown blood runs deep. I watch and live sports for the great memories and incredible feats I've witnessed. I am a bit bitter at Jose Canseco for tainting my childhood memories with his cheating. When it comes to writing about sports I try to be as objective as possible, while still telling it like I see it and having insight of my own.

Hey Jason,

Two new articles I wrote this week which haven't been getting much coverage.

Check this one out from yesterday on Roy Hibbert & Greg Oden, two rising centers in the NBA:

Also from last week my key predictions for the Miami Heat and their new

season:http://bleacherreport.com/articles/273242-predictions-miami-heat-0910-season

Hey Jason, how are you?
I'm hoping to see some of your input on my new article: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/273629-stepping-back-from-sports-happy-birthday-to-eminem

It's different from your everyday Bleacher Report article, but I hope you enjoy.

Just be optimistic when reviewing it: my writing might be rusty for my time off of writing articles, plus...you'll find yourself stepping back from sports for a moment!

Hey Jason,

I just wanted to take a minute and ask you to check out my latest article comparing the losses of Troy Polamalu and Brian Urlacher and their ramifications each will have on their respective teams.

Let me know what you think!
