Boston Celtics Top Writers

1 - Thomas Halzack

 

Writer bio

It all started on a message board. Actually I've had a frustrated writer inside me for years.

Celtic fan. UConn fan (and alma mater). I saw Bill Russell play in his later years.

As a small child, even then, mentally juxtaposing the change from the platonic late 50's to the chaotic, dynamic cultural changes of the sixties was a wild ride. Sports was a big part of it then as it is now. As with songs, you marked periods of your life with certain sports events.

Me? A doer of many things. renaissance man with a small 'r'. I wish I had time to do and read much more than I do. Something called work gets in the way every day. Don't ask. I won't tell.

I write better than I played. I think better than I write. But I played a lot. I mean basketball on local school courts. Dead of wi...

Bio:
One day, I found a website known as Bleacher Report and my life has been changed ever since. I have had great opportunities through this site to find that this is the thing that I one day want to do.

I have interviewed (sort of) Stanford Routt of the Oakland Raiders and Dwayne Bowe of the Kansas City Chiefs, I have also been stood up by Jarrett Bush. Still waiting on a reply about the actual date of the interview there. I have also been lucky enough to meet Derrick Williams of t...

8 - Alex McVeigh

 

Writer bio

I am 25 years old, I live in Northern Virginia, and in real life I am a newspaper reporter. I graduated from Virginia Tech with a degree in English, and I was a substitute teacher for a few months before becoming a writer.

I am somewhat of an oddity as a sports fan. I love the Boston Red Sox and I hate the New York Yankees. I love the New York Giants and I hate the Dallas Cowboys. I love the Dallas Mavericks and I hate the San Antonio Spurs, the Los Angeles Lakers, the Golden State Warriors, and the Miami Heat.

My favorite players are Dirk Nowitzki, Kevin Youkilis and Eli Manning in approximately that order. I think Alex Rodriguez, Tony Romo and Dwyane Wade should burn in hell. I don't like Tim Duncan, but goddamit I respect him.

I am not a fair-weather fan. I liked the Red S...

12 - Rojo Grande

 

Writer bio

Sixty-year-old former athlete, soldier, jack-of-all-trades. My heart still wants to run that 4 minute mile and pole vault 16 feet, but my body says "not today, big fella". So, I'm resigned to my present job as chief poop-scooper on my wife's Standard Poodle ranch. We live in the hills of southern Oregon and I occasionally get some time off to shoot guns, play guitar and write. What a life!

Writer bio

Hey everyone! My name is Troy, and I am just your average everyday sports fan. Ok, I'm a little more than just an average sports fan. I eat, drink, and sleep sports. I have since I was about 8. I decided to start writing for the bleacher report because I think all of my friends are tired of hearing me talk to them about sports, so I figured I would write my thoughts down for people who might care about what I have to say.
