Denver Broncos vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

So I was going to do another music blog but I couldn't resist talking about my Broncos.  As you already have gathered from my other blogs, I am a huge fantasy football fan.  However, on Sunday night I will not be looking at fantasy numbers or my team's stats.  I will be focused on one thing only; the Broncos vs the Steelers.  I am obviously biased as to how I think this game will turn out, but let me attempt to be logical and give you a few reasons why Denver will come out ahead in this match up.
P.S. This is a sick picture, I love it!

Masters of Acoustic Music: Nickel Creek

This next band I am going to feature on my Masters of Acoustic Music series is one of my all time favorite bands.  They have a unique sound that is unmatched by any other band.  They back up amazing instrumental performances with solid vocals and smooth harmonies.  They also feature THE greatest mandolin player to ever walk the earth in Chris Thile.  They are, Nickel Creek.

Masters of Acoustic Music: Alison Krauss and Union Station

I figured I would take a break from writing about sports and tackle one of my other hobbies, music!  I have been playing the banjo and guitar since before I started high school, and grew up listening to and playing Bluegrass music.  I absolutely love any type of acoustic music, and believe that it is becoming a lost art.  So much "music" out there electronic based and made mostly through the studio and a computer.  While I do enjoy a little dubstep every once in awhile, I think the most talented musicians are the ones that can make beautiful music with just there instrument and/or voice.  That being said, I want to highlight one of my all-time favorite bands and masters of acoustic music, Alison Krauss and Union Station.

JBU Basketball Will Be Here Soon! How Will Our Teams Do This Year?

So first off I'd like to apologize to those out there who have read my blogs to be nice and because we're supposed to read each other's blogs but have absolutely zero concern for fantasy football.  I promise this blog isn't about fantasy football.  I figured I would write about something that I love and hopefully, since you attend this school, you love it too, JBU basketball.  While I'm not an expert on JBU basketball, or basketball in general for that matter, I did have the privilege to watch and announce a good number of the games last year.  So, I figured I would talk a little bit about how I think the teams will do this year.

My Fantasy Football Draft Strategy: RB's First

As promised here is my draft strategy that I generally adhere to and suggest.  It has helped me get the best value out the draft that I am given.  While this is certainly not the only strategy, or even necessarily the best, it is one that could be helpful.

Best Fantasy Football Draft Ever?

One of my recent addictions over the past few years has been fantasy football, last year I actually won my league (Thanks to Jimmy Graham and Reggie Bush!).  Every year I study the teams, research the players, look at who's trending up or down on the draft boards.  This all culminates into the big event at the beginning of the season, THE DRAFT!!
