Project & Portfolio I: Week 1
April 8th, 2023

2. I’m from Houston, and I love talking everything
sports. My main goal is to have my own show to
talk about sports, specifically about collegiate
and pro football. I like to get into the more
analytical sides of sports and dig past the surface
level of the game. I want to entertain people, but
at the same time, I want to get people to think
about sports more critically

14. Spence Breed
You know how most sportscasters just repeat the same bland things over
and over? Well, what I do is look at sports from a different perspective to
make even the most boring stories into something entertaining. In fact, I
have taken multiple courses to improve my storytelling abilities as a reporter.
