Jason's Bio

I am an artist ,musician,freelance writer, photographer,movie lover,sports fan,and father . I find the time to be creative and expand my thought process in many directions. My main focus has been my interest in the sport of "hockey" ; my favorite team has always been the St.Louis Blues! I eat,breathe,even bathe in St.Louis Blues hockey, and that has led me to believe I "Bleed Blue". In fact I will go further to say that I have had a total blood transfusion and pigment augmentation leaving me Blue from the inside out! I grew up watching the Sutter brothers, Mr.Federko, Hull & Oates, Liut, Joseph, Wickenheiser, Courtnall, Bassen, Brown, the Cavallini brothers, The Chaser, The Twister, Dirk, Demitra, Todd Elik, Emerson, Ewen, Finley, Fuhr, Gill, Gilmour, Shanahan, The Great One, Handzus, Nash, Pronger, Hecht, Bartecko, Nagy, Tony Hrkac, Janney, Brindamour, J.Lemieux, Nedved, Joe Mullen, Momesso, K.Miller, MacTavish, McRae, MacInnis, Lowry, Paslawski, Pellerin, Plager brothers, Unger, Quinn, Quintal, Ramage, Richer, Riendeau, Ronning, Snepsts, Stempniak, Stevens, Tikkanen, Tkachuk,
Turgeon, Wamsley, York, Young, Zezel, Zombo, and there are some unmentioned. I have played the game of hockey as a youngster, and still continue to stay active when time allows. My passion for the sport is unmeasurable, and the depths I will travel to attain a career in the sport of hockey ;whether it be writer, analyst, photographer, broadcaster, talk radio, logo design, etc. I look forward to networking and writing people that share the same passions. Feel free to contact me at anytime,my response will be prompt. Any pointers and any other advice would be welcomed with open arms! I am a rookie on the Bleacher Report so I must learn fast and like in hockey keep my legs moving!

Hey,

NHL Free Agency was crazy yesterday, and I'm personally baffled with all the moves. Here's my attempt to sort out my brain...lol.

Here's the goalie wrap-up:

Hey Jason,

How bout them Blues!!! Great articles so far. I just got my computer back after missing the two greatest months of Blues Hockey ever. As far as becoming a scribe I have no idea. I am still a contributor as well even though I am a CL. Just keep writing great articles and it will be recognized.

Was Bart Starr underrated or overrated? I love to hear what you think.

Jason, thanks for the note and article appreciation. I will def. keep you on my radar via the fan add. I used to be a soccer ref and i hated the job. If there was only one ref and one linesman, i would cut the refs a lot slack because I know its a stressful thing to do, but they have freaking two refs...no excuses eh?

Thanks for the fan add, Jason. You've recieved one in return as well!

Good luck to your Blues - I wouldn't mind seeing them in the playoffs for once either.

Mark
