Christopher Dodson,Contributor

I have covered Louisiana high school and college basketball in spurts for over a decade. A basketball lifer from the bayou, my gumbo-stirring form matches my elbow jumper celebration. Fast enough for varsity hoops, tall enough for a soccer scholarship. Have words, and will travel, just not on a basketball court.

About FanSided

The idea of FanSided was born in 2007, when two brothers felt that their favorite team, the Kansas City Chiefs, was being under-covered by the mainstream media. Taking matters into their own hands, they launched Arrowhead Addict, a move that would spawn the creation of FanSided in 2009, a network of over 300+ fan-powered unique sports, entertainment and lifestyle sites dedicated to team-specific, sport-specific, genre-specific, and fanbase-specific coverage.

From sports, movies and TV to lifestyle and tech, FanSided has you covered.
