Writer bio
55 years old, married, three children, two grandchildren. Can't remember when I didn't love sports and NY Yankees. Remember as a kid watching Sunday afternoon baseball with my Grandad. Played baseball through college, coached some, now just a fan. Live too far away to get to many games live, but have traveled to New York, Cincinnati and Chicago to see Yankees play. Love to go to minor league games and get MLB on Direct TV to see as many games as possible. Read everything I can on the Web including New York newspapers to follow Yankees. As a kid was a huge NFL fan and sort of lost interest, but have picked it up some in last few years because my wife is a huge Colts fan. Enjoy college basketball. Can't stand NBA. No interest in hockey or NASCAR.

Writer bio
I was born in Newark, NJ and have been a Yankee fan ever since Chambliss hit that walk off home run and thousands of fans rushed onto the field trying to take parts of his uniform off. thats what did it for me, I was hooked for life.
My most recent work before writing here at the bleacher report was writing on the black board in high school - one thousand times " I SHALL NOT SHOOT SPITBALLS AT MY CLASSMATES "
No, but really I'm having a blast doing something that I never thought was so much fun, I think I'll go write an opera now. Hope you enjoy my articles ( I know I do ).

Writer bio
Edgar Antonio Nunez is a communications, marketing and graphic design professional currently doing his thing under the neon glow of Las Vegas.
He was born in the Boogie Down Bronx, New York, so consequently, he was destined to bleed pinstripes and bleed big blue. He made a detour at New York's "sixth borough," Miami, for five years before heading west.
His main sports interests include pro football, pro baseball, college football and sports commentary.
His athletic glory culminated in being inserted during garbage time of a Catholic school junior varsity basketball game and promptly fouling out.
When not writing about the Yankees or Giants and other moribund topics, he'll spend an off-day doing his charitable work—volunteering as a practice dummy for bikini-clad mu...

Writer bio
I am from Pittsburgh but have divorced the Pirates because their ownership has been so atrocious over the last few years. If they do in fact get better, I will root for them. I have a very special place for the Yankees because my first time ever being able to watch the late, late World Series games were in 1996 with my late father as the Yankees came back to beat the Braves. I hated the Braves because of the way they ripped the heart out of Pittsburgh fans out and it was a pleasure seeing a young Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera and Andy Pettite come back from a 2-0 hole. So if you don't like the reason I am a Yankees fans, screw off!

Writer bio
My name is Marisa & I'm a huge sports fan from NJ. I have to thank my friend from the mid-west (Jeff) for telling me about this site and suggesting that I write for it because of my deep love of sports...baseball in particular.
I did my undergrad at Drew University and got my degree in English. I'm currently looking to get my masters in sports management so that I can go work for a sports organization one day.
The Yankees occupy a lot of my time but I also like football & college basketball too. To me, baseball is timeless and I love that despite all the chaos that tends to surround the sports world, there is still the simplicity of the game.

I am a lifelong Chicagoan who loves sports, especially baseball, and especially the Cubs. I could die a happy man if the Cubs could just once win the damn World Series. But I refuse to die until they do, which ensures a long life I think.
I have a passion for writing, am opinionated, and I don't bathe frequently. I do try to be balanced and fair, but I look forward to your comments, I love feedback.
On a personal note, I have three kids, one of each. If you want to know more about me, first consult a therapist. But if you still insist, Sam Wenk was kind enough to do a brief profile on me for BR:

Writer bio
Biggest Mets fan in Las Vegas Nevada. Been with them from the beginning with great moments and some of the worst baseball ever played. I married a girl from South Philadelphia so she is now a Met fan where I can root for the Eagles without interruption to my New York Jet loyalty. Besides hating the Giants and the Yankees, I've always hated the Braves and the Dodgers for leaving a 12 year old without a team in Brooklyn and now the Phillies can eat my shorts. So there you are. A typical and proud New Yorker taking Vegas for all it's worth for the past 14 years. Don't let 3 finger Louie know I'm here.

Writer bio
I am currently pursuing my bachelors degree in Mass Communications with a concentration in Advertising at Iona College in New Rochelle, New York. I have been raised as a Yankee fan since I was a little kid, but I truly fell in love with them when they produced what was, in my opinion, the greatest team to ever take the field: the 1998 team. I was 10 years old when the Yanks swept the Padres in the World Series, and I have followed their every move, along with moves throughout the rest of Major League Baseball, ever since.

Theres only three things you need to know. Celtics, Red Sox, Patriots. I love them, but I also love a good game and every professional sport other then NASCAR, because its unneeded and is a waste of gas.
I am 13 years old, aspire to be a sports writer and hope to do well on bleacherreport or at least learn something about writing. I hope to become a Senior Writer and dream to have a Pick of the Day, but that may take a while...
I really want to excel my college football knowledge.
The Celtics bandwagon is overly said. Boston has been giving those guys full houses during the bad years. My favorite part about sports is that one year a team is awful, or have been awful for years. Then one year, they blast out. I have seen this in the '06 Tigers, '08 Rays, '01 Patriots and '08 Celtic...

Writer bio
I write a lot about baseball and basketball on here. I'm also a fan of football and college hockey, but I won't be writing about those as much.
I'm a huge fan of Boston sports. I've lived in the Boston area my whole life. My favorite teams are the Celtics and Boston College basketball.
In the future, sportswriter would be an ideal job for me. I really like writing news features about sports more than articles, like they do in Sports Illustrated. If that doesn't work, I'd like to be the Bill James of basketball. If that works out, then hopefully the Celtics will hire me as their lead statistician.

Hey, internet! Quick facts: I'm currently living in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. It's about an hour north of Milwaukee, where I'm planning on moving to after I find a real job to go along with my internship for the Milwaukee Wave indoor soccer team.
I'm a graduate from the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse class of '06, and then spent two years there as a television news reporter. It was fun, but ultimately wasn't for me. So in the meantime, I'm working on my blog, www.thebuckychannel.com, and planning my next move.
