Default My son's Sports blog. Let me know what you think.

My oldest son Justin is a freshman at Arizona State Walter Cronkite School of Journalism.
He is in a program at as part of the Barrett Honors College that will allow him to get a Master degree in Journalism in only four years.

He wants to be a Sport Journalist.
He has gotten a good start.
He started his own blog. 90 Feet to First
http://90feettofirst.com/
I would be interested as to what everyone thinks of this articles good or bad.


He also got in with the student run web site Cronkite Sports and writes Post game analysis of the ASU Football games. (He hopes to do ASU Baseball as well).
He was able to get press passes for the Oregon and Utah games.
Here are the ASU football Articles.

He ran into the editor of the Downtowndevil in the elevator and she asked him if he was interested in writing for them. He mentioned that they did not have a sports department so he was not really interested. She said they were starting one and wanted someone to write and article on what the Dbacks need to do in the offseason.
He was thrilled by this since it is exactly what he wants to do.
Here is that article.

It was suppose to be the about the whole team but it ran really long so they posted just he position players. We believe they will post the pitchers later.

I think the articles are pretty good but I may be bias.
I would like some more objective opinions.
