About John »

Hey, everyone. I've been busy writing for my blog with a friend: thesteelersnat.blogspot.com - check it out!

One could probably say I live and breathe sports (watching and participating). It's just what I do. I live approximately 25 minutes outside of Pittsburgh, PA, but my favorite college teams are Michigan (football) and North Carolina (basketball). I've always wanted to write about my favorite teams (and all sports in general) on a consistent basis, so I'm hoping this is the opportunity I've been looking for. I hope everyone enjoys my opinions and analysis.

Hey John,

I just wanted to let you know that Bleacher Report has launched out of beta with an updated look and feel and some great new features. Check out the "Game On" link in the header to find out more.

Next week we'll be launching the site to the world with some public announcements—and it'd be great to get a contribution from you between now and Tuesday to make Bleacher Report's launch a success.

Let me know if you need any help with ideas or have questions. Have a great weekend John!
