J.C.'s Bio

Greetings stalkers!

I'm J.C. I used to write articles for the site when it was only a red-and-silver thing with four or five "top writers" on the left hand of the site. See that "93" before my name in the link up top? That means I'm a hardcore old-timer. I even had one of the first articles from here to be featured on deadspin (I think). I like to pull these facts out at the swank B/R cocktail parties.

Of course I've taken liberal amounts of time off. This is probably my third go-around with the site - if there's a B/R "comeback player of the year" award, I want it, and I'm building an army of homicidal robots to get it. While this makes me seem unreliable and mercurial, often times life gets in the way of fun. Sometimes other forms of fun get in the way of fun, and sometimes the other forms of fun get in the way of life. Then, before you know it, you're trying to find a lawyer in the middle of Toronto at four in the morning.

Yet I'm here because I think the crew has built a solid community for sports commentary that beats the trite garbage on large-scale professional sites. As far as my personal interests go, my usual topics are editorials on sports & society, college football, college basketball, and occasionally baseball, soccer, and professional basketball. Recently, I've started doing some editing for the site.

As for the gritty personal details, I'm in my 20s, have a B.A. in two of the barely-employable social sciences, and am a fully-blown snob in the areas of film, pre-1980 rock music, and ethnic cuisine. I used to work out a lot. Now I'm forty pounds above my playing weight and I sit at a desk all day.

Such as life. Enjoy my articles.
