My Vision

Hello to everyone reading Bobby’s Beats. I’m Bobby Nightengale and as of this first post, I’m a nineteen-year-old sophomore at Bradley University, majoring in Sports Communications. Everyone I have spoken with about gaining experience in the sports field has mentioned writing and getting your ideas onto the Internet through twitter, blogs and the numerous resources available these days. This blog will be my official opinion website on the current sports world and anything else that is happening across the world that may not be related to sports (I also have a minor in Political Science). Through this blog, I hope to provide insight that you won’t be able to find on other blogs and websites, while I’ll try to keep most of this professional to use as a writing sample in the future. My goal is to update this blog about three times a week during the summer and school breaks, while updating it about five times a week during the school year when I have more time to write. My goals after graduating with a Sports Communications degree is to become a broadcaster for one specific team or a high-profile television channel. My passion for sports lies in the four main sports (baseball, football, basketball, and hockey), however college basketball and baseball have to be my two top of the line favorites. I don’t favor any baseball team much more than another, as long as they are enjoyable to watch, however, I’m a die-hard Duke Blue Devil fan (2010 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!). Also, I want to be able to realize a passion of coaching that I have for basketball, baseball and possibly football. I want to be able to become a college coach (big or small school), and add to my X and O’s knowledge of each of the sports. Hopefully you will have as much fun reading my writing as I will expressing my opinions, whether they will be in the majority or extremely controversial. Also, feel free to leave comments on any of my posts and I will do my best to respond to all of them. Thanks for reading, and I hope you will find yourself checking back everyday for more posts.
