About Justin »

I'm a HUGE fan of ACC Basketball. I follow it closely, and I'm consistently amazed at the talent and level of play that has made it the standard conference in college basketball.

I'll be the first to admit that Duke is the team I root for. It's been that way since I was a 7th grader trying to become a Steve Wojciechowski clone (he's the player I identified with most as a kid), and that will never change.

I'm not saying that I don't approach things objectively...I try to be as objective as possible...but I think it's a good thing for a sports writer to come right out and admit which team he or she favors, instead of pretending like he or she doesn't care who wins (everyone is a fan of someone).

Writing for Bleacher Report has been an absolute pleasure. I have been able to cover the team I love and engage in some fantastic discussions with great writers and fans, and I've been given some incredible assignments from cbssports.com and foxsports.com

If you're a passionate fan who loves to write, and if you're willing to back up what you write when the comment floodgates open, Bleacher Report is a great place to invest time.

    I enjoy your posts and analysis, but I have to ask. What is the deal with Peter Reuben? He obviously is a UNC fan and a mean spirited one at that. He degrades the whole site when he gets on. What's your take on him?

    Hey Justin,
    I'd really appreciate if you could check this out.
    http://bleacherreport.com/articles/288823-ball-overseas-a-new-life-for-manhattans-devon-austin
    It's a unique article about Manhattan's Devon Austin who is adjusting to his first year of pro ball in Europe and I think it speaks a lot about what these guys need to go through in order to achieve their goal of playing for a living.
    Take care,
    Ari

    Hey Justin, I'm taking a break from Duke for the time being. Here's my latest if you get a chance:

    I haven't really had a lot of time to write an article lately, but this is the first of a three part series I have decided to take part. I discuss Pressure and sports and what it means for the athletes.

    If you would please check it out and let me know what you think about it, I would really appreciate any feedback given. Thanks!
