Saif 's Bio

Well, as I've been on B/R for over a month now, I decided I should update my profile, which was a mere one-liner to something more about myself... So... here goes... retaining my old one-liner... Saif Syed Omar is an avid Manchester United fan who is currently pursuing his studies in the United States of America, New Jersey to be more precise...

Apart from the love for Manchester United, Saif enjoys reading about football (well I'll leave soccer to my American friends), watching football and ofcourse, more than anything, playing the beautiful game. Saif played as a center-back in school (not a pro), but because of reasons not very obvious to you guys, he had to switch positions and play at right back... Saif currently plays as a holding midfielder and you definitely wouldnt want to mess with him ;)

On a more serious note, well apparently, apart from writing on B/R in his free time, Saif loves to hang around with friends doing nothing, surfing the net and chatting away to glory. At B/R Saif hopes to preach his mantra of the Premier League and anything to do with Manchester United... And yes, do rate his work without fail, he loves those stars and POTDs...

To be updated again shortly...

Hey Saif, in what I hope to be a new feature to the site, I've written a comprehensive biography of France Legend Michel Platini, it's long so I can understand if you don't have the time to look at it but otherwise I'd really appreciate your opinion on it.

Hey,

Usain Bolt has left the world speechless again, but how does his Berlin performance compare to that of Jesse Owens 73 years earlier? Have a look, comment, and rate if you have the time!

So sorry for the shameless, impersonal self-promotion, but first, let me tell you all something. Seeing my country, Iran, fall in front of my eyes, with all the violence going on, has been very hard. I have family who are right in the thick of the action, and their security I'm told is not assured. These are dark times for Iranians, but there has been some shining light through an historic act of defiance shown by the footballing superstars of Iran. I have written an article on it, please can you read it if time permits:

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/201141-defying-the-regime-iranian-footballers-take-stand-against-government

Excuse me for the soppy story, but a read would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Many thanks,
Yoosof
