About

Once upon a time, a man's man had his first child, who turned out to be a girl. This didn't deter him from teaching her things like the swim move, how to properly throw a Rugby ball, and that the Raiders are the greatest football team on the planet. The result is this writer.

I attended the University of Maryland's Phillip Merrill College of Journalism, studied in Spain and eventually graduated from UC Riverside with a B.A. in Media and Cultural Studies.

    Good article about Barnes vs MWP. Personally, I feel that MWP has a certain clutch factor that's huge in games like Boston or Miami. Plus, Barnes off the bench will keep the momentum going.

    Barnes has been ridiculous with Sessions in the lineup!! Averaging 11.4 ppg with Ramon compared to just 6 when he wasn't on the team! That's amazing! His rebound, assist, block, FG%, 3pt% totals are all up too!

    Anyway, keep up the good work!
