Welcome and an explanation.

For those of you who knew me in college, this blog is sort of a continuation of the sports column I was writing for the Echo, except it gives me more space and a greater ability to write about whatever the fuck I feel like (see, already busting out from the oppressive bonds of college journalism). If you don't know me and somehow stumbled onto this blog, then awesome, I'm probably doing something right (or terribly wrong), hopefully you'll enjoy some of what I write and spread the word.

Most of my posts will focus on some aspect of American sports, with some sidetracks into the world of European soccer and the occasional rant about politics or life in general. Since this blog is primarily a way for me to let off some creative steam I'm not really focusing on a coherent overall theme for now, so expect me to jump around depending on my mood and what I feel like writing about. But hopefully things will come together over time.

Also I'm going to try to include some sort of ridiculously hilarious/inappropriate link with every post so to kick things off here's one of the better newscaster screw-up videos I've seen in awhile. I especially enjoyed the look on the co-anchors face, be sure to watch it twice.

Anyway enjoy the blog, feel free to send any and all feedback, especially if its constructive or at least creatively delivered.
