About Mark »

I'm a 25-year old living in Bloomington, Indiana, and finishing school the slow way. Started in 2002, and still here! I love sports, especially the NFL, college basketball, and college football. I grew up rooting for the Bulls, White Sox, and Bears, as well as the Northwestern Wildcats, and have since added the Indiana Hoosiers and North Carolina Tar Heels to my list of favorite teams.

My friend and I run Armchair Superstar over at blogspot.com. We post some of our articles here on Bleacher Report, and keep the fun stuff (Top Sports Memories, Top Chef, etc.) over at the Superstar.

Featured Columnist for Indiana University Basketball.

On the subject of Pat Fitzgerald being the next Ara Parseghian (man, I hope I spelled that right), here's what the Chicago Tribune had to say about it... Not my article but definitely a good one.

    SEC media policy makes it hard on fans, freelance journalists (of which many B/R writers are both). Thoughts?

    As I continue my series of Who Is The Elite Quarterback, today were talking about Tony Romo. Many are saying Romo has proved to be an elite quarterback. For me, not just yet.
