About Andrew »

After a month-long hiatus from BR due to school, work, and other distractions that required my undivided attention, I'm back! I'll look to write articles mainly dealing with MLB, but every now and then I may go extend my boundaries to the NFL, NCAA, and even the NBA. In addition to writing on the Bleacher Report, I am also a writer for Dom DiFucci's Mets Blog along with Dom DiFucci, Phil Hoops, Rich Marsh, and others. Check it out at http://www.ddmetsfanblog.com

Was Brian Bruney right? Is K-Rod's postgame celebration too much?

Get in on the debate.

Hey,

The biggest week of games to date this season begins for the Mets with Six games against the Phillies and the Yankees, its a real test for a team that has dealt with quite a bit during this early part of the season. With this I'm presenting another version of my Top Five with the subject centering around how the Mets can be successful this week against the Phils and Yanks. I hope you enjoy and thanks in advance.

Its time to finally come clean, Im not a Yankee fan, I only play one on TV and in reality Im a Die Hard Mets fan who is very frustrated with everything surrounding this franchise right now. Then again, its ok cause they're BATTLING every night, right? Wrong and below is my article on the reasons why. Thanks in advance.
