About John »

My name is John, but some folks know me as J.B.

I live in the suburbs of Chicago and I am a sports nut and with a love for broadcasting and journalism. I recently moved back to the area from Arizona where I have spent time off and on. I am also an avid musician and work as a DJ and audio engineer in the Chicago area. I am a Chicago White Sox fan, and I also love the Bulls and the Bears. My time in the Phoenix area helped me grow a passion for the Arizona Cardinals and Phoenix Suns as well. Another passion I have is for the sport of Boxing, and Mixed Martial Arts. I have been following Boxing since I was a child in the late 80's all the way up through today, and have been an MMA fan and follower for about 10 years now.
