About Brent »

Brent has always been involved in sports. He played goalie in soccer, catcher in baseball and right tackle in football. As an adult, he has played quarterback in his armchair! While many sports fans are big into stats, Brent takes a common sense approach to sports. He is a fan because he enjoys the sports. The competition, the story lines, the way the human being can overcome adversity and win.

You may disagree with Brent on his opinion, but Brent enjoys the opportunity to open up for dialogue.
