About

What is there to say? I am an aspiring Sports Journalist currently studying at the University of the West of Scotland in Hamilton, Scotland. I have a passion for basketball which all began with James Johnson's game-winning buzzer-beater in a Bulls vs Jazz pre-season friendly in London in 2009. Go youtube the shot, it's fantastic. I started out as a pretty big Chicago Bulls fan, but since I started writing about the sport I've ended up watching games every night of the week (the joys of league pass and no morning classes!). I also follow European football very closely, I watch more much football as my little brain can stand.

After finishing my degree at University, I hope to move to the US to cover NBA Basketball for a major news outlet.

    I read some of your other articles to be fair, and they are pretty solid. I was a little harsh, but it honestly seemed like they made someone who has never watched a Miami Heat game, write an analytical article about there center/PF situation. It was still a horrible article, but you yourself don't seem inept.

    I am stunned anyone let's you write about sports. I may have just read one of the worst articles about the NBA of all time, and it was written by you. Honestly, it was horrendously researched, with fallacious claims throughout. I would reccomend actually knowing something about the subject you are writing about, before coercing BandR to publish your article.

    Yeah I had no idea how big this site actually is, it's unreal!

    I never knew they covered more than just NBA, NFL, MLB etc. If I did I would have been on here months ago!

    Just need to think of something to write about for my application. What did you do? and is it to be more than one piece?
