Justin 's Bio

Birthdate: The same as Quentin Tarantino, Mariah Carey, and Fergie.
Tailgating krewe: The Tower Drive Tigerfanz (TDT)
Fantasy Football Team: The Deep Snappers
Most points in a bball game: 35 ( and I took two charges in that game from a 5'4" point guard, give it up!!!)

I discovered this site while writing for my own site www.tigerreport.com someone asked me to post a link here. After already running an LSU site and authoring more than 200+ columns since 2000, I would love to share my work here. College football is my one true love (ahem..sports-wise that is), but I also like College basketball and baseball, NFL, NBA, and sometimes MLB.

Aside from B/R and tigerreport.com, I also contribute columns to www.geauxshow.com, home of the original LSU podcast.

My Bleacher Report articles have appeared on foxsports.com, msn.com, collegefootballnews.com, cbssportsline.com, SIoncampus.com, and other great sites full of college football fandom.

I would love nothing more than to do this for a living.

I am the LSU Football Community Leader, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

I reached "Senior Writer" status on the B/R in 21 articles. Now I'm just going to mail it in.

When I'm not writing or reading about sports, I spend much of my time at my new addiction www.whatifsports.com where I'm one of many in a "league of dorks." You can also catch me at www.tigerforums.com (they know me up in there) which is a great place to talk intelligently about LSU sports free of trolls.

With the exception of this sentence, Justin Goar refuses to talk about himself in the third person.

Yup, I was lucky enough to get to Tiger Tangents before anyone else this time. I'll keep an eye out for your CvC.

Daddy life is good. The kid just did a big spit-up, and we just got him some booties for the winter—but you wouldn't know much about that, would you?

So Justin, are the Tigers ready to avenge last year's 51-21 humiliation?

My prediction is that you'll be telling your teenage daughter one day, "I was there at that game when the mighty Gators were humbled and brought down at Death Valley."

All the best to LSU. Geaux Tigers!

Thanks for your comment, Justin. I started a profile for myself a couple of months ago but have just now gotten around to writing my thoughts down on this site.

Although I'm still learning about the site, I think I've got the hang of it for the most part. I'll be writing some more articles about LSU football after this weekend.

I like confidence points too, but you can't design your own jersey on yahoo, now can you?

I can't actually say, as I'm a Seattle sports fan who doesn't live in Seattle. Too bad you couldn't make the trip; it's a really cool city.

On another note, it's nice the Athlon pick'em league filled out a bit. Should be fun!

Sure, I'd join both. It's always nice to compete against someone you (sort of) know rather than complete Internet strangers—although I'll probably have to endure a whole season of ribbing from you Tiger fans after the LSU-UW game.

Revenge, eh? Bring it on!

Hey Justin, do you know of any B/R CFB pick'ems like we had on Yahoo last year?
