James Sheldon loves sports like Steve Jobs loves the sound of his own voice. He is a self-described dichotomy (let's be honest, James Sheldon, I, is/am writing this auto-bio.) - a sarcastic-conservative fellow who digs Jesus, can't stand the GOP and is socially shouting that every guy should be a downright dude...and a gentleman. Husband to one, Dad to two, James pursues work in the world of professional make believe, and writes stuff.

Xavier Villarmarzo is a writer and editor from Miami. He would like to consider himself a modern-day Renaissance man, but he really has no other discernible skill besides writing, editing, playing sports games on PlayStation 3 and deluding himself into thinking all his Twitter followers are real people. In his spare time, this FIU alum enjoys watching sporting events, daydreaming and fiddling with his BlackBerry. And, no, the latter is not a euphemism for something dirty.
