About Casey »

I'm a 23-year-old from Cincinnati, Ohio. Although not from Northeast Ohio, I was raised by a native Clevelander, and therefore support all Cleveland franchises. This of course makes me 90% scar tissue, 7% natural doubt, and 3% unmeritted hope. The very first athelete I ever remember rooting for was Bernie Kosar, and the rest is history

I recently graduated from the University of Dayton with a degree in Communications and Electronic Media. I'm currently looking for a job in radio or other media sources.

To put it bluntly, I bleed orange and brown, I just want someone to stop the bleeding.

The Shortlist »

Favorite Athletes

Bernie Kosar, Delonte West, Grady Sizemore, Tyler Hansbrough, Rick Nash, anyone who can finally bring Cleveland a title

I was just asked to run a blog on another site. The best thng is that they encourage me to still post on Bleacher Report. I would be honored if you could post some of your aritcles on my blog. All you have to do is sign up at the site or just let me post them for you. The best part is all you have to do is post an article here and then copy and paste it. If you are interested, here is the link to my blog.

Casey,

From the 1940's Chicago Bears to the 2000's Patriots, every dynasty has its rise and fall.

I thought I'd give the Cards some respect. You must be heart broken with the Steelers/Ravens playing to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl. If you want to root for the Eagles, I would just love that!

I really like the slide show. Thanks for doing it. I have been in Memphis with my dying grandfather and really haven't cared about much for a while. Good job. Hope we can work together more. You got a good style.

Tired of reading the same articles about Mangini? Here's my take on the Browns roster and how they could attack free agency. It's a fresh look at the organization and could be refreshing after sifting through thousands of Mangini articles.

Hey everyone,

Below are the people and their assignments:

Cody Swartz- Special Teams or Offensive Lineman ( let me know which you prefer)
http://bleacherreport.com/users/56893-Cody-Swartz

Jason Braverman – Quarterbacks
http://bleacherreport.com/users/70053-Jason-Braverman

Issac – Linebackers
http://bleacherreport.com/users/32043-Isaac

Dan Parzych – Tight End’s
http://bleacherreport.com/users/47578-Dan-Parzych

Andrew Nuschler – Defensive Backs
http://bleacherreport.com/users/47738-Andrew-Nuschler

James Williamson – Defensive Line
http://bleacherreport.com/users/50061-James-Williamson

I hope we will all work together and each of us create there on great piece. I have thought about making a style guide, but figured I would ask what the rest of you thought about that. Lets begin working after Sunday’s game. Thanks to everyone.
