Yahoo! Sports Writer's Profile - http://www.contributor.yahoo.com/user/dlew2191
I write for Yahoo! Sports, and this link to my writer's profile displays the articles I have written for the site since joining in May 2012. It also showcases a short biography and the achievements that I have made as a featured contributor for Yahoo!
The Penn Sport Report - http://www.pennsportreport.org
I served as the Editor-in Chief and as an Executive Columnist for The Penn Sport Report, the official sports magazine of the University of Pennsylvania. A student-run organization, The Penn Sport Report aims to bring Penn students, faculty, and staff fresh and insightful analysis about the latest news in sports, ranging from analysis of X's and O's to player and team evaluations.
Yahoo! Sports - http://www.sports.yahoo.com/
Y! Sports is my most frequently visited sports website because it is a hotbed for recent news. The featured articles written by Adrian Wojnarowski, Marc Spears, and Johnny Ludden for the NBA site are some of the most beautifully written articles on the entire Internet. Meanwhile, Jason Cole and Michael Silver remain solid writers on the NFL side. I also use Yahoo! Sports to keep up with tennis, baseball, and golf.
ProFootballTalk - http://www.profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/
PFT is my favorite site for the latest in NFL rumors, transactions, and news. Though it sends out no reporters, PFT nevertheless often beats ESPN and other media "big boys" to big stories. Most importantly, I admire Florio's uncanny ability to analyze stories - he offers critical thoughts on even the most mundane pieces of news.
ProBasketballTalk - http://www.probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/
Though not the most grammatically accurate site, PBT readily provides current information surrounding the NBA and is one of a few must-visit sites in my daily web surfing experience. It combines news from numerous online sports outlets into a blog format that is very easy to read.
Silver Screen and Roll - http://www.silverscreenandroll.com/
Part of the SB Nation community, SS&R is arguably the best source for Los Angeles Lakers articles. Reading the long, in-depth articles helps me stay attuned to the Lakers' week-to-week performance, salary cap situation, and free agency or trade prospects. I feel the members of the site are some of the most knowledgeable and passionate Lakers fans in the world.
Philadelphia Eagles - http://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/
On the Eagles' official website, I enjoy reading Dave Spadaro's daily "Insider" column. Although he may be overly optimistic and often finds a way to spin every Eagles happening in a positive way, he still offers valuable musings regarding the team. Tommy Lawler's "Fandemonium" posts are equally insightful.
NFL.com - http://www.nfl.com/
The header with a list of all games and scores on this site is the best way to follow all of the action on Sunday. The videos section of the website is my main drawn---the game highlights are best available on the Internet, and the NFL Total Access debates, Anatomy of a Play segments, and Playbook videos are well worth watching.
NBA.com - http://www.nba.com/
The NBA's official website is my go-to source for watching highlights of professional basketball games. Its intuitive ribbon at the top of the page makes it easy to see the results of each game on a given day. The videos section also contains intriguing snippets from TNT.
ESPN - http://www.espn.go.com/
Although I prefer Yahoo! Sports, ESPN is undoubtedly the best at breaking news and rumors. The NBA section features John Hollinger and his Player Efficiency Rating (PER) System, a statistical measure that I use in forming my opinions about certain players. Lastly, ESPN3 is a great way to watch sports online.
Basketball Reference - http://www.basketball-reference.com/
The ultimate website for settling debates about players and their statistics. I recognize the value of using the "eye test" (i.e. making judgments by watching the games closely), but statistics are a great way of encapsulating the performance of a player or team. The page also provides "advanced statistics" that are not available on sites such as Yahoo! Sports or ESPN.
