About

My life highlights include singing the Super Bowl Shuffle in front of my 7th grade class and catching a foul ball off the bat of Kenny Lofton.

Other tidbits about me: current graduate student in Chicago, 2010 graduate of Cedarville University, aspiring sports writer who hopes to one day meet Scottie Pippen, former college hoops player who had a whopping 2.1 points per game career average.

I had a book published in December 2012 through SlimBooks. It is entitled "Sports Under the Microscope" and examines the ways social media has transformed the sporting world. Check it out here:

    No problem, Haddon. I'm sure it was tough leaving him out, but you defended your selection very well so it's not like it was a total outrage or anything, haha. I've been really liking your Bulls articles, keep it up!

    Please write article on the refs behavior against the bulls. The refs are just ridiculous. They need to be fined.

    In your article about Gibson I've never seen a professional writer lack the literay IQ that you clearly don't have. You changed your argument of your paper midway through, it started as a comparative analysis between Gibson and Asik and turned into Asik is better. your basically blaming the Bull's woes right now on Gibson. HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN WE DON'T HAVE DROSE? your trash bro
