About Ezra »

I've been in California all my life, and I love it here. I've been an Oakland Raiders fan since I was 4. A Lakers fan since I was born, even though I don't write about them on here. I'm just more passionate when it comes to the NFL and the Raiders. I love to write, but mainly just about sports. I guess that's why I'm here. =). I enjoy debates as long as the other guy knows what he's talking about haha. I'm a die hard Raiders fan and I can name the whole offensive /defensive lineup without really thinkng LOL. I take pride in my articles and I hope to one day rank among the top NFL writers for Bleacher Report. I'm not afraid to speak my mind but I'll apologize if I say something stupid. Alright so read my articles and beome a fan....!!!
