There’s something about reading one’s opinion, whether you disagree with it or not, that makes you want to know more about that person.
Who are they? What’s their background?
And maybe, most importantly, why do they think they can even have that opinion?
With that said, and with this new concept of blogging here at C & G, I figured what could be better for my very first entry other than a little, "Get to know Mike Moore."
In short, I’m a 24-year-old sports writer who has been working at C & G since January of 2006. I came here roughly seven months after graduating from Albion College, where, you may find it good to know since I do write about sports, I was a four-year member of the Albion College football team.
As a lifetime backup QB I did more clipboard holding than playing, but it was more than worth the time and effort.
Prior to Albion, my allegiance rested at Dearborn Divine Child High School. I spent two years as the starting QB at DC, which is why it brings me great pleasure to actually cover some of the Catholic League this season, since it is some of the best football in the state.
A little biased? OK, maybe.
And speaking of coverage, I might as well let you know just exactly which teams I’ll be writing about this fall, aside from some of the Catholic League football. My football responsibilities also include the Macomb Area Conference Gold and Silver divisions, as well as the Metro Conference.
As far as European football (soccer) goes, you’ll see me covering Divisions II and III of the Oakland Activities Association, as well as some Metro Conference and some Catholic League teams.
There certainly is an argument that fall is the most anticipated time of the sports calendar. I look forward to working with all these teams, coaches, fans and readers. I welcome feedback at all times, and as the summer months slowly fade into September, let the games begin.
