About statboy »

I was born in Brooklyn, but live in VA now. I am an all New York sports kind of guy. (Sorry for my bias, if you can detect it.) I am interested in feedback, and would really like to improve my writing skills. I'm currently a sophomore in high school.

I don't usually link my articles, but I feel this one is important. It's about the blatant favoritism surrounding David Ortiz. Please take a look if you're interested.

Hi , did you see the NY sports page on BR? it is not doing to well. it only has 4 fans, i think we should make it better and take the page under are wing, its time to for us to represent NY and show the world what this great place is all about. I asked Angel Navedo to be the community leader, we will see what he says. Are you in ?

Thanks, appreciate it. Yeah my Skins got embarrassed, we're just not a good team. I think the 6-2 start was more because of Zorn's never seen before play calling, and because our aging O-line was fresher. Since the start of the 2nd half of the season they've been terrible. But maybe our Yank's can bring home a championship in the coming seasons.
