I promised a diary for my Draft Weekend experience of covering the Titans for Bleacher Report. A couple of days after the end of an orgy, um, bad taste, a marathon, no, too soon, a lot of time writing, I can reflect on the experience of posting 14 articles between Thursday morning and Sunday just […]

Bleacher Report: Back with the Bleach for Draft Weekend
I’ll start with a brief background on how I originally got hooked up with the Bleach. Thanks to Twitter, I got a gig writing for a Titans Blog creatively named titansblog.com. I had interviewed Michael Schottey of Bleacher Report around that time. The blog died and Schottey smartly scooped up a lot of the writers, […]
Bleacher Report Post Mortem: Early Vegas Odds
The gambling bug got me. I saw a post by Clay Travis early last week morning that stated the Titans were not favored in an NFL game until Week 12. That seemed worthy of an article. I found out that Travis was wrong. The Titans are favored in Week 8 against the Colts. In your […]
Bleacher Report Post-Mortem: What Vacation?
Read the article here. I could be drinking right now. I needed something to break up my rigid schedule of waking up, going down to the beach, sipping beverages and reading a book a day. I posted an article. I did it because I’m a competitive guy and I have a chance to win. Does […]
Bleacher Report Post Mortem: Lawyering the Rules
Read the article here. Please, seriously, click, my heart can’t take these low results on my Bleacher stuff. Most of my Titans articles get a healthy 1,000 reads. The majority of the general NFL stuff I post does better than that. The past three NFL stories have been utter busts. I’ve been Jamarcus Russell’d. I […]
Bleacher Report Post Mortem: Titans Classics versus Jacksonville for the AFC Championship
Read the article here. You don’t have to, but please click because I’m obsessive about numbers. There was a thread on Twitter this week about when you as an NFL fan became enthralled by the sport. Most of the answers represented a pretty young conversion, like first communion age. I was never a big fan […]
Bleacher Report Post-Mortem: My First 32-Slide NFL Article
Read the article here. If you don’t, those depressing commercials about the ASPCA with the pathetic looking animals will play on a continuous loop during your favorite TV shows and you will not be able to fast forward. I had every intention of indulging myself in a 12-year-old football game and writing about that. On […]
Bleacher Report Post Mortem: Rummy and Veterans
This is the article. You want to read. You know you want to. Before I get all in-depth about my latest Bleacher Report opus, let me say a few words about the podcast that came out today. I was the second guest in this week’s 2 Mugs podcast. Listen to the first half that includes […]
Bleacher Report Post-Morten: Reasons the NFL Offseason’s the Best
Read the article. Or don’t. This could have been a really easy assignment. I could have said “because it’s the NFL” and saved you the slideshow. My first attempt at an NFL article was Five Reasons the NFL Season Isn’t Too Short and is Actually Just Right. No, we do not get paid by the […]
Bleacher Report Post-Mortem: Three Titans Who Should be Extended
Read the article. Or don’t. Director’s commentary begins now… My goal is to “win” the Titans page this month. After the draft, everyone’s tuckered out, and I’m probably going to be gasping for story ideas in June like a fish on dry land. After writing on a projected roster for 2012, I thought about all […]
