About JJ »

Born and raised in North Dakota, Josh is a life long Arizona Wildcats fan. Why? Lute took over the Cats a year after he was born and life has not been the same for Josh or the Wildcats since. He likes to watch Arizona Basketball, which is pricey in ND, and when not doing that he enjoys the outdoors.

It's a shame Chase Budinger fell so far in the draft.

Look to see what I have to say about that and his future in the NBA: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/209900-does-chase-budinger-have-a-future-in-the-nba

Let me know what you think,

Thanks!
