Red On A Swivel

This past Monday, Atomic 16, Red celebrated his birthday, but was not recognized on this site, and wasn't even wished a happy birthday by one of his colleagues (Blue). And that's just the kind of thing that can't never happen in Sensationalizationalism.

A co-founder of Sensationalizationalism, Red is the ultimate pioneer of the virtual college football tournament. In his youth, he and neighbor Scott LeBlanc helped create the tournament that perhaps started it all - a round-robin style competition between several students of Sedgwick Middle School in the West Heartbeat of Connecticut. Several years later, as a freshman at F&M, he once again helped spearhead a college football tournament, this time between members of the famed Schnader 3-North hallway. Then, the following year, Sensationalizationalism was born, and the rest is history.

In addition to his revolutionary contributions off the field, he has been a formidable opponent on the field throughout the years. Before Blue clinched last year's title, Red was the only repeat champion in the history of Sensationalizationalism, taking home the title in both 2006 and 2007. He is and will continue to be the sultan of speed, a master of the rushing attack, and a shifty, skillful operator of the option run.

Red has always had the skills, the stickwork, and the heart of a champion. It has been a magical journey, and Blue feels extremely fortunate to have been along for the ride.

Swivel!
