About Ross »

My name is Ross Jones, a recent graduate of UNLV. Throughout my college years, I developed a passion for not only sports, but the drama inside sports. I find it fascinating. I am an avid fan of most, if not all southern California sports teams. Chargers, Angels, Lakers, Ducks, and yes, USC football. Sports fans on the east coast think that they are the only region with a passion for their teams, but I have witnessed first handed that west coast fans care as much—if not more. We just have lives, hah.
