Daniel 's Bio

My name is Dan and I am a sports fanatic. I'm a featured columnist writer for UConn Huskie Football. I am from CT and root heavily for the Boston Red Sox, Celtics, Dallas Cowboys and Uconn Huskies. I currently attend Uconn-Storrs and love every minute of it. I play a lot of golf in my spare time and pickup basketball games. Feel free to shoot me an email about any sports questions or comments at ddinunzio1@hotmail.com

Hey Daniel,

If you love sports, you will love what happened between UConn and West Virginia on Satruday. It's why we watch. If you have time, please check out my column. Thanks!

Just like to say that I thought your article about Jasper Howard was a very fitting tribute. It truly is a great tragedy. Justice will prevail and his killer will be caught, I hope. RIP #6.

While I usually don't promote articles, I saw fit to promote this one. I feel people are not paying attention to what this article is about. They probably should. No matter if you are a fan of Florida or LSU, this is something you need to remember going into tomorrow night.

Hey,

After the great success of my first article about the uniform numbers 1-10, I have come back with the next installment, with the best players to wear the uniform numbers 11-20. I hope you can take a look and even comment on my choices. Thanks in advance!

Dan,

I never heard back on whether you are interested in the Sweet 16 UConn-Purdue Creature vs. Creature story for partnership syndication. Let me know ASAP or I will have to find somebody else. Thanks, Aron

Hey Dan,

We're up and running.

I did a good deal of editing on what you gave me. Mainly to cut down on space and redundency. If there is anything I cut that you think needs to be in there, please feel free to go back in there and change it.

Daniel,

This is going to work as a Creature vs. Creature joint article between you and Paul, not separate stories. I will send a follow-up email to you both this morning, and you should communicate with each other to get the piece put together before I can send it to Foxsports.
