Jim has yet to fill out a bio.
Hey,
I just came up with the list of the best current Major Leaguers wearing the numbers One thru Ten. I hope you can take a look and voice your opinion on my list. Thanks in advance,

Apologies for the blast promotion, but this is less about getting my article out as it is about getting this kid's story to the masses.
He's been facing long odds since HS and continues to prove he belongs—having just been drafted by the SF Giants in the 36th round. Now, he's got another improbable climb to the Show, but he sounds like the kind of guy we should be rooting for:

Hey Jim,
People of my generation look at them fondly as the players they watched as little kids, people of other generations may just look at them as great players. I created a slide show highlighting the best players of the 1990's. If you get a chance, take a look, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

Hey Jim,
There was a touching moment in the Mariners game last night, made possible by the best pitcher I've ever gotten to watch - Randy Johnson. Watching history unfold inspired to me take a look at his incredible career and count down his five best moments, in my eyes. If you get a chance, take a look at it, I'd appreciate it. Thanks a lot.

Hey "Chef Dawg"
I liked your articles in the past, wondered if you could help me with something. Do you think there is any chance that these Buccos have a shot this year? By shot I mean at the very least preventing a 17th straight losing season. I've been banging my head against a wall since the Three Rivers Stadium days, being a Pittsburgh sports fan isn't all smiles and sunshine.
Its cool you immersed yourself with (some) Pittsburgh teams. As a college student in Ohio I've gained enormous respect for Browns fans, how you all put up with those owners is beyond me, but Bob Nutting is just as bad. I've been to a couple college i.d. night at the Jake and root for the Cavs so I know the feeling. btw I'm ready to send the Flyers home tonight.

Did you get a chance to check out my mock draft. Please note this was written prior to the Jags signing of Torry Holt. And Now I do not see them selecting a WR on draft day. Please let me know what you think about the Browns pick. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/158571-2009-nfl-mock-draft-os-round-one-selections

ughh...
What I dislike really, is the attitude of SOME of the teams fans. There are many of them that dont know anything about the teams history, other than the one fact they can spew out...6 super bowl wins.
i actually own a Steelers throwback jersey, its seal brown with yellow (not gold!!!) letters. exactly one of nearly 1200 people that work in my office building knew anything about the jersey..and it was a female.
Oh and let me say that as a whole, Ladies who are Steelers fans, and I'm talking passionate fans, know thier football, and I respect that.

Jim,
Sorry, I just got your email now, it went to my spam folder for whatever reason. But I'd be happy to contribute to any one of those Buccos sites if you'd like. I'm surprised you looked at that blog, I barely use it. I just do my writing here. Thanks for the offer!
