Dustin's Bio

Utah born and raised and yet my sports fanship runs from Miami to Chicago thru Denver and back to Salt Lake and Provo. I played baseball in high school and college and am partial to that sport, however, I love pretty much all sports and games. I live for competition. Nothing is more exciting than proving yourself better than the other guy. I am a father of four little ones and husband to what I consider the most beautiful girl in the world. GO JAZZ, COUGARS, DOLPHINS, BEARS, CUBS, and ROCKIES.

  2. Dustin:

    Just posted my latest. Breaking down my expectations for the Cowboys' 2009 season. If you have a second, I would love your feedback, but if you cannot get around to it, no worries! Thansk!

  3. I wrote an article about Deron Williams I thought you'd enjoy

  4. Dustin:

    We have seen a ton of lists, rankings, etc. all over B/R. I finally tried one of my own, but I tried to tackle this particular list from a different angle than the norm. My list is of the 10 Most Valuable Offensive Players in the NFL.

    These players aren't necessarily the best in the league, or even the best at their positions, but rather the 10 players that mean the most to their particular team's SB chances.

    Would love your input if you have a chance. If not, no worries. Thanks!

  5. Dustin:NFL runningback Ryan Moats was pulled over last week on the way to the hospital to say goodbye to his dieing mother-in-law. He was detained and harassed by the officer for almost 15 minutes, and in that time his mother-in-law passed away. He was not able to get to her in time to say goodbye.

    I was heartbroken when I heard this story, but enraged when I actually saw a 17 minute video of the entire incident. I have never seen such an abuse of power in my life.

    Because of the nature of this subject, this article was pretty important to me. I would love if you could check it out when you get a chance. If not, no problem. Thanks!

  6. Dustin:

    I'm not so sure that there is enough sports content to truly classify this as a sports article, but here is my latest work. It was fun to write so I hope its fun to read.

    I am doing some "Spring Cleaning" by airing a few gripes I have about my Dallas Cowboys.

    If you have a chance and want to, check it out. If not, absolutely no worries. Thanks!

    This is my first stab at college hoops... My Baylor Bears had a HUGE win over Kansas today in the Big XII tourney, and I just had to celebrate! Check it out if you have a chance. If it's not your cup of tea, no worries! Thanks!

  9. Dustin:

    Myself, James Williamson, and Andrew Nuschler have put together a Dallas Cowboys' roundtable. Our second installment is focusing on—you guessed it—the news of the Terrell Owens release.

    It's a lengthy read, but there is some pretty good stuff in there. Check it out if you have a chance. If you can't get around to it, no worries. Thanks!

  10. Dustin:

    Despite the fact that I knew little about Corey Smith and Marquis Cooper before this weekend, their tragic boating accident has really hit me kind of hard. I think it is a pretty heartbreaking story, and I think that we as fans can learn a lot from it.

    Check it out if you have a chance. If not, no worries! Hope you enjoy!

  11. Hey Dustin,

    If you get the chance, I'd love for you to check out my recent analysis on Derrek Lee's batting woes. I take an interesting perspective on the issue and offer some possible solutions, and I'd appreciate your comments and feedback very much!

    Thanks!

  12. Dustin:

    Ever since the Super Bowl, there has been a lot of chatter about whether or not Ben Roethlisberger is an elite quarterback. In my best effort to remain unbiased and objective, here is my reasoning for why he is NOT yet an elite quarterback.

    Check it out if you have a minute. If you don't get around to it, no worries!

  14. Dustin:

  15. Dustin:

    I have debated whether or not I wanted to get in the middle of the Kurt Warner fumble drama, and I finally decided that yes, I do.
