Svea Keegan's Sportswriter Profile

Svea Keegan

Generating profile stats...

I am a 23-year-old female sports fan brought up by a die hard Oakland Raiders & Montreal Canadiens fan in my father. Born and raised in Peterborough, Ontario, my favourite pastimes include reading about, listening to, and watching sports. My first interest when visiting the Bleacher Report was to soak up the opinions of fans everywhere and comment until my little heart's content -- as you may notice, I haven't written a single article yet, and hopefully one day I will get around to it.

Having gone to college for two years to study print journalism (deciding it wasn't the calling I had in mind), I still have a genuine love for the written word. I must say I have a soft spot for well-written opinion & editorial. I look forward to a future of good reading material!

I actually met my current boyfriend (Matt Gard) on this website in January 2009 & I have never been happier. The Bleacher Report is mainly responsible for our meeting -- we are incredibly thankful that we stumbled upon each other here, as unlikely as it may seem. We have been dating for over two & a half years now in a long-distance relationship, him in Indiana & myself still in Ontario.

Thanks for the support Svea! Kind words and you always have great questions. Your B/R bio is priceless. I'm going to point that out to someone.

That one is a Jason Campbell. I don't have a Lechler, but I do have a Sea-bass! Always nice to hear from another Raider fan!

Haha, it's not a silly question. Whenever there are cars on the track for either practice, qualifying or racing, you can bet that I'm watching it.

That's was an exciting race (well, the last 10 laps were). The first 90 I was ready to write about how much I hated the new car!
