About

League-Wide NFL Featured Columnist for Bleacher Report (also cover the Kansas City Chiefs and Royals); co-founder of Podcast to Be Named Later; founder of Sports Blog RT and Post Pivot; co-founder and Dir. of Ops of Pop Fly Boys.

Born and raised in Kansas City, I once held on to the dream of becoming a professional baseball player. When that dream faded away, I finally decided to embark on a potential career in journalism back in August of 2011 when I co-founded Pop Fly Boys.

While learning that gaining readers was relatively difficult, I decided to start a Twitter account that would help other independent sports writer in a similar position. @SportsBlogRT was born.

Other interests include craft beer and poker.

    Hey man, nice article on the biggest draft busts. You're one of the few guys I see who actually tries to reply to all the comments on his articles.

    After looking at your 4 Ideal candidates to replace Romeo in KC, got me thinking. Do you think Pioli and Romeo will go? Or will it just be Romeo? Cause appartently Pioli is out scouting college guys right now, so it makes me a little nervous that just Romeo will be gone

    Glad you commented on my list. I like Fangio too, even after Sunday night. I see a common theme... any great ones are unlikely, any likely ones are only ehh. Haha Let's hope we both find a different answer before we get stuck with another bad one.

    Vince Young,... He can still play at a HIGH level, (31 wins say so).... Here are a few facts and facts do not lie..... His NFL won/loss record right now is 31-19 as a starting quarterback... He has playoff experience ... He's a 2 time Pro-Bowler... He was voted 2006 NFL Rookie of the Year..... In 2010, Vince Young had a quarterback rating of 98.6 .. ...........................
    The NFL is all about "WINS and LOSSES".... and Vince can WIN............ ANY quarterback in the NFL with that kind of record would easily be given, chance after chance to play on an N.F.L team ...... Vince Young has earned that right....... Give it to him....
    If you bring in Vince Young NOW... sign him to a 1 year contract and evaluate him... Next year at the very least, you will have a GOOD backup quarterback..

    Not going to get vulgar. I learned my lesson. I'll keep it clean but I sure as hell am going to push the dagger in to the hilt and give it a good twist.

    Jeremy did u realize that the Chiefs are #1 in the NFL in terms of Offensive yardage? I couldn't believe that when I seen it, if this defense can get it's SH*T together they can be as dangerous as we thought

    Hey Jeremy. There are four tags: Opinion, NFL, Kansas City Chiefs and AFC West

    Jeremy, so I got clarification on your question and go ahead and continue tagging your articles with just ONE team, not two as I suggested. Sorry about the confusion but glad it got cleared up. Thanks!

    Hey, Jeremy. My internal messaging is messed up, so here is my thought about your question: I don't think it will affect placement. More likely, it will go to both team pages. But, it's worth experimenting and checking because I know that they want tags for each team if both are discussed equally.
