I live in Australia and no, we don't all ride kangaroos around.

Every sport gets my blood pumping and I love to play or write on any sport you give me. Just not golf. I gave up golf after losing four balls on the first hole one day. After that I said I'd never go back to it.

Manchester United, the Boston Celtics and the Green Bay Packers are my teams. I'm learning that they're quite an unusual combination but I guess that's what you get for just picking teams out of the air at a young age. Note that I don't hate you for your sporting teams, so please don't hate me for mine.

I finished the B/R Internship class in the summer of 2012 and graduated to World Football Featured Columnist from that. When I first started out writing on B/R as a Contributor, I was constantly amazed at the reads and comments that these Featured Columnists were getting. Through hard work and dedication to the sports that I love, I guess that's me too now.

It's all about consistency. Write well enough for long enough and you'll get there. I'm nowhere near "there" yet, but I've got full confidence that I can make it.

So thanks for all the reads, comments, abuse, hypocritical judgments, support, twitter mentions, angry emails, direct messages and hate mail. I keep it all in a box under my bed because it all matters so much to me. Or maybe not.
