Writer bio
Football has always been a huge part of my life and writing here on Bleacher Report is a huge pleasure. As the community leader of the World Football section for the last 10 months or so, I've seen it grow from the English Premier League section into the global debate it is today.
I'm proud of the role I played in that transition and will continue to support our good friend Salaar as he aims to take us further.
I've recently returned to Scotland from South Africa after 10 years in the football mad continent. I've been around professional football at many levels in South Africa but now persue a career writing about the beautiful game.
I also spent plenty of time at St Georges Park, Port Elizabeth working with some of the best cricketers in the world.
I'm presently continuing ...

I'm very simple: I love to write, and I love hockey more than anything in the world. My world and my life revolves around hockey. My work revolves around what time the game is on TV. Hockey is a priority. That's it. Hockey is a priority.
I am currently attending Muhlenberg College in Allentown, PA. I will be majoring in psychology and minoring in business. This is to answer all questions about whether or not I want to go into journalism. No I don't, but my first year seminar was a journalism class, and I plan on taking other classes like this.
My dream is to go into hockey management, and one can easily see why through all of my hockey articles.
I like to think of myself as a hockey fan before a Flyers' fan. Yes, it would be my dream to see the Flyers' win the Stanley ...

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.

Writer bio
Sean Crowe got his start writing for the now defunct dailysportsreport.com (although we’ve recently been informed that DSR is back…but we assure you, Crowe has absolutely nothing to do with the new site).
His influences include ESPN's Bill Simmons (from his Digital City Boston days) and the Boston Globe's Dan Shaughnessy before he went catatonic and was replaced by a random negative article regurgitating robot. He hates everyone who writes for the Boston Herald except for Steve Bulpett & Rob Bradford. Mike Reiss is his favorite sports writer at the moment, but he’s looking into becoming the president of the Amalie Benjamin fan club—for whatever that’s worth.
Crowe is married with 2 beautiful daughters. His wife is obviously a saint for putting up with him for over five yea...

Writer bio
To the left is a picture of me near the top of Mt. Lemmon -- the only location of snow in Tucson, Arizona.
Currently in high school, I run cross-country and track (one-mile and two-mile). I have a deep love for all Minnesota sports, but I have a deeper love for my Creator, Jesus Christ. I believe that I am saved by grace, through faith in Christ alone. I hope to bring you entertaining and relevant articles while I rant on whichever Minnesota sport happens to be struggling.
I recently came closer to Mexico when I moved to Tucson, Arizona, but moved farther away from my Minnesota sports.
No, I don't limit my interests to Minnesota sports. I love all sports, but I tend to gravitate towards the NFL. I will try to find peace with Arizona fans and maybe pick up a team or three.

I am a sophomore at John F. Kennedy High School. I have played 3 sports in organized leagues. I played JV Football last season, I'm a quarterback. I played baseball in BCC from about age 10-13. I played basketball in the YES League in 2007. I enjoy watching sports, playing sports, writing about sports. My favorite team is the Baltimore Ravens. I also like the Orioles. I despise the New York Yankees and the Washington Nationals. Even though I hate the Yankees to death, I have some Yankee fan friends. I'm 15 years old, probably the only one here at that age. I have been a sports guy since 1998, when I was 5! Then, I liked the Cowboys. I started liking my current favorite team, the Ravens. I mostly write about baseball, but I know a lot about each sport.

Where do I begin? I'm a seventeen year old die-hard fan of the New York Rangers and San Francisco Giants. I was born in Staten Island, New York before moving to New Jersey when I was five years old. I've been watching hockey for as long as I can remember and first remember understanding the sport and rooting for the Rangers when I was seven years old and Wayne Gretzky, my idol was playing at Madison Square Garden. I go to as many games as I can but wish I was a season ticket holder so I could see...

Writer bio
Jon is a graduate student working on his Masters Degree in writing. He is a fan of all sports Minnesotan, but ranks mixed martial arts as his favorite sport. He was a late bloomer to MMA, not really getting into the sport until the Tito/Shamrock feud began, but doesn't really feel like he missed much leading up to all the ado.
Depending on what article you read, Jon is between 5'4"-6'8", between 120-320 pounds and may or may not be a member of the Communist party. He is single/married/divorced/widowed and enjoys drinking in the dark.
Jon is also the first winner of the Bleacher Report Humor Bowl, which he attributes either to not being held enough by his mother, or a little too much by his "uncle".

Hi everyone. I am the Community Leader for Florida Gators Football here on Bleacher Report.
I am a graduate of the University of Florida with both a BS and MS in Decision and Information Sciences. I lived my entire life in Florida up until January 2008 when I moved to Charlotte, NC for a job. I was born and raised a Gator, and still remain a devoted Gator to this day.
I run the blog year2.wordpress.com and have had opinion articles published in the Orlando Sentinel in the past. I also have had three Bleacher Report articles picked up by FoxSports.com, which is really cool.

38 - Raider Card Addict
Writer bio
The result of an older brother following the Raiders and a Father who follows the Broncos, Joseph Budd was tuned to the Raiders at a young age, starting with Ken Stabler's game against the Vikings in the 1976 season. Going through school, he was the subject of ridicule and resentment, especially after cheering for the Raiders through two more Super Bowl wins, and watched in horror when Bo Jackson's career was derailed.
Never giving up on his team, Joe went on to college, and took his hobby into business, opening a card shop, trading, and doing business both before and after the internet took off, selling cards and collectables.
After discovering that there was no physical way to collect every single card when your name is not Donald Trump, Joe decided to pursue the Raider cards. A...

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 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.

Writer bio
Come on in! Grab a seat. Need a beer? That's what the Roundtable is about.
The name comes from our college hangout. There was one bar that knew us by name, always had an open table, and became the location of some great debates. Sure, some of them may have been about what song needed to be played on the jukebox, but the point remains. And it has really stuck. The Roundtable is where your friends gather to go over all sorts of topics. And the table always has an open seat.
You'll mainly see fantasy sports writing, concentrating on baseball and football. But there will be more than a few pieces on other topics that strike points of interest.
The Roundtable has a blog located at http://elmhurstpub.blogspot.com/
Thanks for checking us out, and be sure to tip your waitress.
