I’m probably a bit of a rarity. A Brit, who is obsessed with pro football, and various other American sports.

I make a few trips to the States every year, to watch the Redskins. I should state, I’m not a Redskins fan, I just get free flights to our Washington office, for my job, so I check out Washington sports when I’m there! That and the now yearly NFL games in London.

I’m generally an Eagles man, but also have a soft spot for the Chiefs. I like to see both do well.

Basketball, I follow the Celtics, being half Irish. Red Sox for Baseball. Again, the Boston thing. Mayflower, Boston Tea Party and all that. It’s about as close a link us Brits have to a US city. I should really follow the Patriots as well, but hey, that would be too predictable.

I also of course follow most English sports as well. Football, I support Newcastle Utd. I also like Cricket.

Work wise, I actually work in the writing/ publishing already, for a newspaper in the UK. I just enjoy the occasional blog every now and then. Less editorial constraint.

Favorite Athletes

Michael Jordan, Peyton Manning, Manny Ramirez, Donovan McNabb, Larry Bird, Bill Russell, Alan Shearer, Thierry Henry, Lionel Messi, Kaka, Michael Johnson, Barry Sanders,
