Detroit Lions Top Writers

1 - Keith Shelton

 

Writer bio

I grew up in metro-Detroit but I'm currently displaced in Michigan's UP (Marquette) for school (Northern Michigan University)

I'm majoring in Entertainment and Sports Promotion (ESPR) with a minor in Marketing at Northern Michigan University and I'm currently in my junior year. I hope to do sports marketing for a professional sports franchise or Division I-A university after I graduate.

I grew up with the Michigan Wolverines. My Dad went there and every Saturday in the fall I'd be watching the football team. I remain a big Wolverines fan, as well as a big fan of all the pro-Detroit sports teams. Since coming to NMU I've gotten interested in college hockey, aside from the NHL. NMU has a good hockey team and I try to make it to as many games as possible.

2 - Scott Rieger

 

Writer bio

I'm the Detroit Lions Community Leader (along with Keith Shelton) and also write about many different sports and topics, but predominantly Detroit Lions, Michigan Wolverines, Orlando Magic and UCF Knights.

If you have a question, ask me and i'll get back to you ASAP.

I'm a die hard sports fan. I not only grew up watching sports with my dad religiously, but played a bunch of them competitively. I've been involved with fantasy football for 15 years so I tend to have some keen insight in that arena.

I enjoy writing about what i'm passionate about and hope to provide some good insight and interesting reading for you to peruse.

3 - Bob Biscigliano

 

Writer bio

I am a 23 year old law student and co-writer for the 2 year old "<ahref="http://detroit4lyfe.blogspot.com">detroit4lyfe.blogspot.com</a>" blog that I created with two of my best friends. It was originally an 'open' blog but it gradually developed into a sports blog because sports is predominantly what I think about. I am a die-hard Detroit fan, so naturally a greater number of my subjects will gravitate there.

Despite my love for writing, I am not positive how often I will be able to post because the opportunity will depend on my chances to break from studying. Nonetheless, I am wide open to constructive discussion, debate, and feedback- so please feel free to contact me.

Disclaimer: A lot of my writing can be very sarcastic in nature, and someti...

Writer bio

Welcome to my corner on Bleacher Report! I am a Senior Writer and one of your New York Jets Community Leaders, and will try to help you out with any issues I possibly can. Feel free to link your articles my way if you believe I may have missed it.

But be reasonable—I'm an NFL fan, and I don't care for any college sports, soccer, or any variation of racing. Please don't ask me to read those articles. I'm sorry.

I'm a 25-year-old New York Jets' fan living in Brooklyn, NY, but I have a general love for the entire NFL. I also support my New York Knicks blindly. I'm not a big fan of baseball, but I'll pay attention from time to time.

I'm the Head Writer at NYJetsFan.com, Editor-in-Chief of the QN5 Fanzine, and a contributing writer of a video game blog at NoMoreContinues.Blogspot.c...

Writer bio

Currently, I am a senior journalism student at Middle Tennessee State University living in Murfreesboro TN, and am a staff sports writer for the campus newspaper. I am a lifetime fan of the Detroit Lions, Tigers, Pistons and Red Wings, and am originally from Traverse City, MI. Sports writing has always been my dream, and I am happy to live out that dream on Bleacher Report... until I get drafted by the Free Press, or whoever else likes what they see at the combine.

6 - Ray Bogusz

 

Writer bio

Hi, my name is Ray.

I’m 20 years old, and currently go to Northern Illinois University as an English Major (hold for applause).

A little about me:

I’ve always loved sports, particularly football and hockey, although I was a little thin to play either one. Of course, that didn’t stop Dad from encouraging me to try. Thanks, Dad! (I know you read this.)

I was always able to write too, and had some success writing in high-school and my early college years.

I found bleacher report by pure accident. I was looking for places to start a sports blog and “The Open Source Sporting Network” popped onto my screen.

30 some articles, consistent appearances on Fox and CBS, enough front page time to warrant being noticed, an editing internship, a wild ride later, and here I am. I’m s...

7 - Jim Dunn

 

Writer bio

My wife and I moved out here in 1989. We have adopted the Seattle Seahawks as our second most favorite team but have always remained faithful to the Lions. Not sure why but I can only paraphrase a quote from the great Sidney Lumet movie, 12 Angry Men:

You a Bear Fan?
No, Lions.
Lions? That's like getting hit in the head with a crowbar once a week.

And yet, I still hope for the best.

I am a major contributor to the www.firemillen.com website where I am known as Seattle Lion Fan. But since that joyus day in September of 2008, the site doesn't quite have the same meaning as it once did. It will be going under a name change but I still consider it one of th best Detroit Lion fan sites I've ever seen.

8 - Kevin McGuire

 

Writer bio

Kevin McGuire is a long time Philadelphia sports fan. When it comes to teams he is a 4-for-4 guy with his Phillies, Eagles, Flyers and Sixers but his most passionate following is for college football and the Penn State Nittany Lions. In addition he is an avid fan of Shippensburg football and division two football. McGuire also enjoys college basketball and supports all teams from the Philadelphia area, with a slight favoritism towards Villanova when necessary.

McGuire enjoys writing about many topics on his home blog including many sports posts found here but also discussing politics, news, as well as sharing thoughts on movies, tv shows, and other random tidbits that come up in conversation or observation whenever something needs to be said.

Writer bio

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.

Thanks for reading!

Writer bio

I am the program director and sports director for a radio station in Canada and the host of a weekly sports call in show. Most of all I am just a huge sports fanatic. I may not be the one painted in my favorite teams colors, but I will be the one cheering them on whether times are good or bad.

I am married to the MOST wonderful woman in the world! Plus she loves sports! What more can you ask for!

I like to give the benefit of the doubt in every circumstance(where possible) and I will give credit where credit is due. I welcome your thoughts and comments, but make sure they are well thought out with good reasoning. If you are just going to disagree and spout insults, don't expect a response.

I love Hockey and football the most, but I do enjoy watching almost every sport, and h...

Writer bio

Auguste Archer is an 18 year old English major, currently headed to UCF. He has aspired to be a journalist for many years and fully intends to continue that career path! He writes primarily about his favorite sports team, the Jacksonville Jaguars, and this year he has season tickets. It has been , needless to say, a somewhat depressing investment... But, life goes on, and they're his team winning or losing!

He is also one of the two Jacksonville Jaguars community leaders, so don't be afraid to come to him with ideas or concerns!

Writer bio

I was born in Manhattan and then we moved about 45 miles outside in Weston, CT when I was 10 and now at age 17 I'm here.

With my family's New York roots, I was raised to be a Yankees, Rangers, Giants, Knicks fan. I also love football, but the typical American calls it SOCCER! Gotta love Arsenal baby. Used to be a big USC football fan but as I've begun the college search I will be waiting until then to chose a college team.

23 - Ryan Nelson

 

Writer bio

I'm probably in the younger group of B/R writers, and my experience is limited to school essays and school newspaper articles. I was born in Minneapolis in 1993, and I moved to Indianapolis in 2001. I've been a Colts fan ever since. I kind of like the Michigan Wolverines and Alabama Crimson Tide. I am an Ohio State convert, by the way. I have a genuine dislike for the New England Patriots and Green Bay Packers. I am an 8th grade linebackers coach for my brother's middle school. I am a musician as well. I play trumpet, guitar, piano, bass, drums, and trombone as well as singing.

My dreams of playing NFL football were crushed on April 10th, 2008 when I developed a subluxating kneecap. It is a problem that has no solution, being there is no damage, so I have moved on to early stages of ...

Writer bio

Hey, this is William Blake. My fascination started when I began to follow Kentucky Wildcats basketball, which, like it or not, is definitely one of the most successful teams in any sport on any level.

Since then, I've always enjoyed reading sports articles from various websites and newspapers. Through reading these articles, its always made me wonder, "What's it like to write a sports article?" When I accidently stumbled upon this website, I felt like my wish had been granted. So now, I'm enjoying all of the amazing features Bleacher Report has to offer.
