About

I am currently a Communication student at Kent State University. I love sports and enjoy a good sports debate any time. I am convinced I will see a Cleveland Browns Super Bowl victory before I die and you can't convince me otherwise. I also am a big fan of TCU football and MMA. Follow me on twitter @Ballentine_Alex

    I was upset about the McClellin pick at first, but only because I really wanted Chandler Jones or Whitney Mercilus. But, McClellin fits the Bears scheme well because of his versatility. He is a great player. So, I am now happy after further research.-

    I wanted Trent Richardson, but not Brandon Weeden. I was hoping they would grab Courtney Upshaw since he fell so far down in the draft.

    Who are you hoping the Browns take with the 4th and 22nd pick?

    You are very welcome...I kinda figured you combined the names, but was hoping you'd catch that after I made my comment.

    Hey Alex. No problem for the props. It is great to see someone give an opinion and try to exert themselves to their potential regardless of the attacks you receive from those who lack knowledge or think they know it all. Keep up the good work. I will let you know when I post an article and I will hope to hear some feedback from you as well. I am a Browns fan and I have been since I was little because my Grandma was such a die hard Browns fan. I like the Bears more, but the Browns will always be in my blood. Along with every other Cleveland team. Good luck to your future!

    Hey Alex... The em-dash is created by typing SHIFT-OPTION-(dash) on a Mac keyboard and ALT-0151 on a PC (hold down ALT while typing 0151 on the numeric keypad).

    (If you're working on a PC without a numeric keypad, you'll have to copy and paste em-dashes as necessary. Here's one to get you started: —)

    No prob man - now that I think about it, you got a pretty good chance...

    4 stoppages (KO or Sub) would put anyone in 1st place right now (plus this runs till the end of the year)

    Good luck

    All set... nice picks. Although you've got a bunch of no-names, it's still very possible to win this thing (hope you're good at picking undercards)

    Quick rule-rundown

    - You're allowed ONE add per month (obviously, you need to drop someone). It happens the last day of every month (just Private Message me your move whenever & I'll process it on the last day of the month)

    - 5 points for a Championship STOPPAGE / 4 points for a Non-Championship STOPPAGE / 3 points for a Championship Decision Victory / 2 points for a Non-Championship Decision Victory / 1 point for any draw.

    - Trading is UNLIMITED. You are allowed to make as many trades with other league members as you wish. They do not have to be on a specific date either (EXAMPLE -you can trade someone the day of their fight ------ ANY DAY OF THE MONTH)

    Any questions just click on my logo and ask - good luck,
