Sam is a committed fan of the Portland Trail Blazers and the Colorado Rockies. Perhaps you might think that he's a bandwagon fan, since those two teams have been very good recently after years of mediocrity. Perhaps you might be an idiot.
Sam knows a lot about basketball and football, but primarily writes about baseball for How To Watch Sports, since everyone else seems to have those other sports under control. He'd love to hear your opinions on Brandon Roy, Troy Tulowitzki, or, you know, players for other, lesser teams. Shoot him an email and he'll be in touch.
