About Steve »

I am Steve Popowski. I am a senior at Marquette University, studying Mechanical Engineering and Business Administration. I am a Chicago sports fan, living and dying Cubbie Blue, Navy and Orange, Red,White, and Black, and of course, Blue and Gold. Writing is something I do in my spare time, and enjoy any feedback from articles I write. I am hoping that I someday get an article published on a well known sports site

New Article: Big East Looking Strong In Early Season Play

published by Steve Popowski

Hey Steve,

Decided to have some fun with this. It's a humor piece about Survivor for athletes. I had a blast writing it, and I hope you get a good laugh out of it :)

If you get the time, I'd love to hear what you think. If not, no worries.

Hey Steve,

I think the best part of sports is the passion involved, so I wrote an opinionated piece on why I think a perfect athlete is capable of crying, both win or lose. I’d love for you to check it out and let me know what you think. If you’re too busy, no worries.

Thanks, as always, for the support! It’s much appreciated ☺

Hey Steve,

I had an awful day today, so I took it out on MLB. Here's my first humor piece on "the worst case scenarios for all 30 teams." If you get the chance, I'd love for you to check it out and let me know what you think.
