Ryan 's Bio

I'm a 22-year old journalism grad from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. I still reside in Milwaukee and follow the Brewers and Packers heavily, though I'm just a big sports fan in general. I'm also a big UFC fan and think that it's going to be the next major thing in sports.

I interned for B/R over the winter and really enjoy the outlet it provides sports fans. I also do some freelance political and news reporting, and hope to get some kind of news or sports reporting job that can pay my rent in the future. In the meantime I'm enjoying the B/R community and look forward to reading some good stuff.

Decided to write a piece on a topic that hasn't really been talked about: the coin flip to determine the 3rd,4th,and 5th overall picks in the 2008 NFL Draft. This one flip not only has turned one of these franchises around, but also bring one into major rebuild mode. Appreciate any feedback you can give on this piece.
