About

I try to write articles that express a fair, honest opinion. I try to write something different and interesting, but always honest.

Sometimes I am being funny, and sometimes I am just writing a conversation starter. (NOT a controversy starter. Boring, even if effective.) Sort of like, "Here's a thought:..." I don't care about off-the-field incidents or the players personal lives or who is squabbling with who in the locker room. Yawn. I'm a man. I don't care for soap operas.

I will not say something simply because some a-hole on the radio/TV said it. It's always my idea or need for expression about sports.

I'll be honest, I write mostly about Cleveland sports. I don't think I have anything interesting to say on a national level. If I do, I will. But I usually don't.

I hope you enjoy what I write. Agree or don't, in the big scheme of things it doesn't matter; none of us know what the **** we're talking about anyway. It's just fodder to think about for entertainment.

    Rich,
    
Welcome to the Cleveland Indians Community. As the Community Leader around these parts, I want to thank you for sharing your work with us.

    

I enjoyed your piece "The Cleveland Indians: What's The Point?". I was particularly impressed by it because I don't agree with your argument at all, yet still thought the article was excellent.

    

Going forward, I hope we can expect to see more of the same quality work from you. More importantly, I hope you’ll continue to make the most of Bleacher Report as a resource for aspiring sportswriters.

    

I also encourage you to contact me if there’s ever anything I can do for you. It’s the role of Community Leaders to help newcomers to our community find their groove, so please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you ever have questions or concerns. Feel free to message me here on B/R or on facebook.



    Thank you again for sharing your work, and please keep it coming when you can. I’ll look forward to reading your next piece.



    Best,
Samantha
