About Alejandro Avila

My name is Alejandro Avila and as far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a journalist. While writing across a spectrum of topics has its rewarding moments, there is a quality to writing about sports that feels natural and most gratifying. Numbers always matter at the end of the day, but in sports, anything can happen beyond the bounds of what’s possible. In covering the day-to-day news, one must also consider the improbable because this sport makes superstars out of underdogs. Without an unlikely helmet catch on February 3, 2008, I wouldn’t be as passionate about football and it hasn’t let me down.

Being a SoCal kid all my life, I’m ready to see Los Angeles take the credit it deserves in the world of football and cover it every step of the way. Also interested in fantasy football (never bet against Fred Jackson), Thai food, garments, jiu jitsu, and good films.
