About Tyler »

"If you are going to be a champion, you must be willing to pay a greater price."
-- Bud Wilkinson

Sports are all around us, they are everywhere we look as if we can not escape them. Just think about it, what is one of the first things you ask a friend, relative, etc. "Hey, did you catch that game last night?" Whether you play a sport professionally, just enjoy the commodore of a team, a completely obsessed fan on the verge of an early heart-attack (I am speaking of myself), or your average Joe ..... Everyone watches sports.

Since I can remember sports have consumed my life, yet one team in particular have taken the forefront. The Oklahoma Sooner have been the team behind my madness since I came into this world. I didn't even know it was a school until I was about 7 or 8. I also love my hometown teams such as the Houston Rockets who won my heart with those back to back NBA Titles in 94 and 95, and the Houston Astros who got close once, but still remain my favorite baseball team.

I enjoy writing about sports and analyzing different match-ups, crunching stats, all those things the most normal people may think is weird but its my life. So with that I look forward to writing about my favorite teams, and hope you enjoy!
