    Barrett do you read the articles on the pages of the teams you write for or even the titles of them? I can answer that both ways for you;

    if yes. then you are successfully trolling other authors on this site.

    if no. then a simple browse down the page of the teams you write for will reveal that you are about to write an article about something that is already on that teams page aka you don't need to write it again because someone already did. Different words and/ or titles don't mean the articles are different.

    2nd time in 2013 that I have noticed this just trying to help

    Barrett here is something you need to read as for your denial of not being rewarded for getting reads and posts on your articles.

    Denial is bliss aye? Considering I see many of these "rewards" as bleacher report calls them on this page that is a profile page of 1 Barrett Sallee.

    Ripken's accomplishment was in poor taste. All he did was surpass a man so ill he could not clap his hands together. If Cal had class, he would have tied the record, sat out a game out of tribute, gotten the asterisk, and played his next nearly 200 games. He would still be recognized as the player with the most endurance, but also a man worthy of respect in all aspects of life. Never being injured in all those seasons could be atributed to luck (not being hit with a wild shot during practice, etc.), but DiMaggio's streak was pure skill (unless he luckily got the bat on the ball?).
    Go Gators! SEC SEC SEC!!!

    Barrett I comment a lot and it would be a dream to write an article for B/R but I'm not sure I have the skills yet so I'll keep practicing in my Comments but what I was writing you about was hoping you could do an Article on Scott Cochran The Strength and Conditioning Coach at Alabama! HE turns these kids into beasts ! He has to be the 3rd best/MVCoach on Bama's Team! He keeps Them Strong and in Shape and gets the most out of his players! What do you think Barrett? Roll Tide Roll!

    I see you've started calling Saban.....Bear Saban. (poking the bear in your recent article). You should try and hide your "tide" leanings a bit more.

    Well, let me first say I really enjoy everything you write but I do have an opinion about this subject with Brad Wing. First, he's a great player. He did a stupid thing just like half or more than half all college teams do, including the number 2. Can't reveal my sources. You know how that is. One thing I think is that there is a double standard involved. Tyrann Mathieu is my favorite and will always be my favorite guy. He messed up and suffered the consequences. Jefferson was suspended from 4 games and he didn't fail a drug test. Well, they gave Tyrann 3 chances and the third one got him suspended. Brad Wing fails it twice and is suspended. That is double standard. You shouldn't treat one player and his situation one way and another player with his situation another way. It is just not right. All of the non LSU people are blaming coach Les. The coach doesn't shove these drugs into these boys systems. It really ticks me off to hear people but down this young guy and poke fun of him being caught doing drugs. I was a Social Worker for almost 25 years. I can't tell you how many of my patients died from an overdose and they ALL started off smoking pot or whatever and then turned to the harder stuff. That is why people have a hard time with drug treatments. Too many people laugh and it's not a funny subject at all. So, that is all I have to say except GEAUX TIGERS and GEAUX IRISH. I have family on both sides. Thanks so much.

    I've enjoyed your articles. Came here to your profile to see where you attended college, I think that is something readers should know to put what their reading in prospective, can't find it here! A Google search of your name has your Wikipedia page pushed way down. Why is that?

    I try to avoid any video on Bleacherreport because of the LOUD@SS CAR ADS which precede. Why do you have to make the ad louder than the video? Wakes up the kids. It may seem smart forcing people to hear but it makes me angry and determined not to reward obnoxious interference in my life with my dollar.

    Even when there isn't a video there is some audio imposed on you in one of the side ads.
