Collin's Bio

My name is Collin Whitchurch and I'm a 21-year old Journalism major at Eastern Illinois University. I cover sports for EIU's daily student newspaper, the Daily Eastern News. I'm an avid follower of almost anything sports. The sport I'm most passionate about is baseball and I follow the Chicago White Sox like some people follow the gospel. I also passionately hate the Chicago Cubs (stemming from having a father who is a St. Louis Cardinals fan). In other sports I am a fan of the Green Bay Packers, Chicago Bulls, and Chicago Blackhawks. Don't ask my why I follow all Chicago teams except football, because I can't really make sense of it. I am a fan of University of Illinois football and University of Illinois and Marquette University basketball.

Sports are my passion. I live them, breathe them, and my knowledge of the sports that I follow I plan to use to succeed in the world beyond college. I enjoy talking and debating sports with anyone who wishes to.

Hey Colin..

Just shoot me an email by Tuesday afternoon at BleacherPowerRankings@gmail.com with the list of 32 teams in order from best to worst. If you want to add commentary, that'd be great and i'll try to include it in the final version.

Thanks!

Hey Collin, thanks for the interest!

The end of the year awards and post-season predictions will be just for the community leaders, but there will be something for the rest of the community available. Stay tuned!

Thanks Collin!
Hopefully I'll have the Bears done tonight. Working my way up from the bottom (going by last year's record).

I should have started in like June...

By the way, good job on the Tampa article. I see the comparison to the White Sox, but I'm thinking they're more similar to the impossible dream Red Sox (1967). Young, came out of nowhere, everyone having career years...

Hey Colin,

First off, beautiful piece. POTD and 5 stars from me...

You did the write thing in tagging it with "Multiple Sports." That said, it had some other tags on it as well that didn't seem truly relevant (Green Bay Packers, Brett Favre, etc.) that I removed.

In addition, I would say this article constitutes "Sports & Society", so I tagged it with that as well. In the near future, we're going to find a way to feature "Sports & Society" and "Multiple Sports" on the front page...hang tight buddy.

Keep up the great work,
Zander

C-Dub,

First things first, amazing and inspirational article. I truly loved it. Secondly, tell your dad he's amazing, because he's a Cards fan. Thirdly, good luck to your Chitown boy Carlos Quentin on winning the AL MVP, I think he deserves it. Alright, I'm moving into college tomorrow at 8 AM, gotta go.

Living in Saskatoon, the closest pro sporting event is 6 hours away (Edmonton Oilers) and my family just hasn't taken me to any games, although I am now 16 so I will be going to a few within the next year with some friends and family. Good news is that I am going to an Oilers game this season when they play my favorite team (Detroit Red Wings) and me and my friends are going to California after graduation to watch the Dodgers play.
