Walter's Bio

Enjoy sports and am an avid golfer. I also enjoy writing articles in my golf blog although it does take a lot of work to get noticed. I believe strong family support is key to an active and fulfilling life.

Hi Walter-
I am beginning a very exciting adventure, and looking for support from the B/R community. Beginning this September I will visit every pro sports stadium in the span of one calendar year- becoming the first person to ever accomplish the feat. If you would be willing to contribute to the fund so I can accomplish this goal, or even to pass along to others who may be interested, I would be greatly indebted to you. Let me know if you would like more information. Thanks

For my 400th article, I decided to tackle a subject that is near and dear to my heart.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could take the time to read it and comment. I think it's something very important for us to recognize, particularly in light of today's Civil Rights game.

Thanks, Bob
