Who am I

What's up everybody. I'm Wade Peery, a 24-year old student at Ohio University, where I only have a few classes left until I graduate! Finally. It's my sixth-year hear, so I have gotten used to all of the Tommy Boy jokes and all of that good stuff. I'm a die-hard sports fan and a college football fanatic. I'm constantly learning more about the game. I love talking to people so don't be afraid to give me a shout on here if you like my articles. It's always cool to see that people enjoy reading my

What I'm Reading

I don't read books too much, but I love reading Stewart Mandel of cnnsi.com, the college football writer for cbs.sportsline.com, and many others. I like reading Jeff White of the Richmond Times Dispatch--he's an excellent beat writer for Virgina football.

Subjects I'd Like to Learn More About

Football, women, life in general. The psychology of dreams would be interesting to learn about, because I have been having some bizzare ones lately.

An Interesting Fact

I was the local Spelling Bee Champion in 8th grade in Galax, Virginia. I also loved playing little league soccer more than you can ever imagine--one of the best times of my life.
