About

I currently live in Lawrence, Kansas, and I'm hopelessly addicted to football, basketball and MMA.

If you try to call/text me during a Kansas Jayhawks or Kansas City Chiefs game and expect a response, there are 2:1 odds you'll wear a straitjacket at one point throughout your lifetime.

I've never witnessed the Royals make the postseason; I'm confident that Kauffman Stadium will be purchased and sponsored by Zoloft before 2015.

I'm convinced that Blake Griffin is actually Teen Wolf post-shave.

If you retweet my articles, I'll be forever indebted to you (until tomorrow).

    Hey Brett,

    Coming from a lifelong Eagles fan here, what was the feeling of the general KC fanbase with the hiring of Andy Reid? I think you guys got a tremendous head coach who just wore out his welcome in Philly. I'm interested to know if you guys are excited or disgusted with the hire.

    Hey Brett, I have read some of your articles and was wondering if you could give me some tips on how to be accepted into the writing program on B/R. I have submitted my application four times but was rejected. I thought I had a real chance at it my last couple of attempts because I felt my articles were relevant and well written. Do you think you could read an article and give me some tips?
