About

I love most sports, and the art & passion of sports in general. NBA basketball is by far my favorite, but I love the NFL, Tennis and European Soccer, and I have good knowledge of the MLB, College Football, and College Basketball. I'm building my expertise in MMA, Boxing and MLS as we speak.

I graduated from Columbia in 2011. I currently work for Bleacher Report in New York as a Front Page Editor and occasional NBA Video Analyst.

Everyone has opinions. You're welcome to share yours with me. All are encouraged to get excited, angry, heated, philosophical, hypothetical, impassioned and analytical. My page and my pieces are meant to start and continue spirited dialogue.

For more of my thoughts on sports, as well as whatever random thoughts are going through my mind, check out my blog, thebasketballmecca.tumblr.com, and follow me on Twitter:

    Sorry, the 49's are going down to the Ravens by a score of 24 to 17.

    No problem Aliko. However, 21 of the 23 comments on the article are from Arsenal fans and the vast majority of tweets are the same group also.

    So, having seen the interest I added the tag to drive hits.
