Most points in a bball game: 35 ( and I took two charges in that game from a 5'4" point guard, give it up!!!)

I am a college football freak. I will watch any college football game, anywhere, anytime, and between any two teams. There is nothing better than waking up on Saturday morning, throwing on the Ohio State jersey, turning on Gameday, and then sitting back and watching game after game after game.

I am also a huge fan of college basketball and love the Buckeyes of course. Thad Matta is the man!

My NFL team is the Super Bowl Champion N.Y. Football Giants and I hate with a passion the Dallas Cowboys and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

I have a identity crisis a few times a year when my favorite NBA teams meet and I just didn't know what to do when the Cleveland Cavaliers and Boston Celtics met in the playoffs last season.

My articles have been featured on ESPN.com, FoxSports.com, an...

I'm Alex, I'm from London, and I have a job as a journalist. About insurance. If there's anything that can drive the person truly mad, it's years of writing about insurance. Trust me. I know.
But my biggest love is sports. In the UK I love my soccer teams, but I have my big American passions: baseball and football. Sure, I can deal with the odd NBA game and March Madness, as well as a bit of the NFL, but give me Ken Griffey's swing and a Penn State White Out any day of the week.
So here I am. I have a blog - http://viewfromnorthamerica.blogspot.com that I hope you'll look at at some point. And I love writing.

Your basic guy who loves college sports.

Did the faceless, corporate management thing for too long.

Business owner long enough to see good times and rough times.

Through it all college sports have and continue to be my passion. My days of being a Pac-10 fan actually date back to the Pac-8. Those were the days when Jim Plunkett was throwing bombs to Randy Vataha and Ahmad Rashad was a running back at Oregon by the name of Bobby Moore.

My favorite college game to take in? Either the one I have tickets to or just about any game on television.

Different picture...same Joe!

For starters, I'm Peter. I know you already knew that, but I figure an introduction is still appropriate. I was born and raised in St. Louis, and I go to school at the best journalism school in the country, Missouri.

I'm a huge sports fan. I always have been. I've read the St. Louis Post-Dispatch Sports section every day since I was seven years old, and respect (almost) everybody in the sports industry, from athletes to writers to management. If I could make my living in the industry, that would be a dream come true for me.

I love the Cardinals, Rams, and obviously all Mizzou sports. I follow the Blues, but not passionately, and root for the Celtics and Grizzlies in the NBA. My passion for my teams will surely bleed into my writing. I'll do my best to cover a wide-variety of spo...

I am an old school Alabama fan. I live, eat, and sleep college football. I played the game, so I know the sacrifices these kids have to make. I have been involved with Alabama football since Bear Bryant's glory days. I have witnessed Alabama winning 7 National Championships.

The picture displayed is "yours truly" sitting at Bear Bryant's own desk.

When I die I plan to have my ashes spread over Bryant-Denny stadium. I only ask that I live long enough to see Alabama win another national championship. It's beginning to look like my days are numbered!

Ron Johnson
Height: 6'1
Weight: 175
From: St. Louis, Missouri

If there was ever a man who lived to shake up the foundation on "perfection," it is the enigma known as Ron Johnson. For the past two years, Johnson has been rocking the nation with countless submissions that challenge not only the conscience, but also the sports mind. From his censor filled "My Two Cents" to his comical "Dem Apples," Johnson is living proof that no name wannabes can even have their name etched in history.

I'm a junior at the University of Nebraska, majoring in news-editorial journalism with an emphasis on sports writing/editing. I'm on the sports desk of the Daily Nebraskan, the campus paper. I'd like to one day write for The Oklahoman (and turn the pape to national prestige) and get big enough to work for ESPN.

Westboro Baptist has been protesting at Nebraska games this season, condemning the state with claims that Memorial Stadium is a temple for the worship of its gods, the Huskers. This caused me to think: If sports is my religion and athletes are my gods, I must be a monk.

Only follow two sports closely. College football and golf. SEC fan, Gator fan. Known for my enthusiastic opposition to any kind of college football playoff system.

A small format mini-playoff will create more controversy than it will solve. A playoff system must have at least 24 teams to be credible. I am against a 24 team playoff because it will destroy the drama of the regular season.

My name is Christopher "Chris" Williams; I am a 30 year old from South Louisiana. As a sports fan and someone who enjoys entertaining, being a sports writer has always been something I wanted to do. Sometimes life does not always go as planned and for whatever reason life long dreams get off track, but it is time for me to do what I love to do. I hope you enjoy my articles and although some of my work might not be the best, I do attempt to do the best I can when I have the time. Maybe one day I can devote all of my time to doing what I love.

Sports have been a huge part of my young (OK, maybe not that young) life. I was born a Buckeye and have been following Buckeye Football since the Tom Tupa days. I'm a fan of all things Ohio (Buckeyes, Reds, Bengals, Browns to name a few), but relocated to Georgia so I know a fair share about southern teams/conferences as well. I've participated in multiple sports and of course am a professional spectator. I've been writing for B/R for a little over a month and have loved every minute of being a part of the community.

Greetings stalkers!

I'm J.C. I used to write articles for the site when it was only a red-and-silver thing with four or five "top writers" on the left hand of the site. See that "93" before my name in the link up top? That means I'm a hardcore old-timer. I even had one of the first articles from here to be featured on deadspin (I think). I like to pull these facts out at the swank B/R cocktail parties.

Of course I've taken liberal amounts of time off. This is probably my third go-around with the site - if there's a B/R "comeback player of the year" award, I want it, and I'm building an army of homicidal robots to get it. While this makes me seem unreliable and mercurial, often times life gets in the way of fun. Sometimes other forms of fun g...

I love college sports. Need I say more?

Ok well I will. I am a Oregon Duck fan first and foremost. I am not a conference cheerleader but I will defend the Pac 10 when people down talk it without reason. I love college football. I read a handful of preseason magazines every summer. I have 5 tv's in my living room through football season so that I don't miss very much. I like to travel around to the differnent college stadiums as well, no matter who is playing. I have been to 9 college stadiums in the last 5 years.
I also like college basketball, but not to the extent of football. I do my best to follow lacrosse, track, baseball, softball, cross country, gymnastics and as many other college sports as I can.
