About

Joel loves writing about the St. Louis Cardinals, his all-time favorite team. He has been a fan since he was five years old, and his passion for the team grows everyday.

He likes Major League Baseball in general and wants to some day be a general manager or a scout for a team. He also likes college football and basketball, and the NBA to some extent.

He has only two true favorite teams, while the rest are teams he likes. He bleeds red for the St. Louis Cardinals, while bleeding orange and blue for the Fighting Illini.
