About

Your basic guy who loves college sports.

Did the faceless, corporate management thing for too long.

Business owner long enough to see good times and rough times.

Through it all college sports have and continue to be my passion. My days of being a Pac-10 fan actually date back to the Pac-8. Those were the days when Jim Plunkett was throwing bombs to Randy Vataha and Ahmad Rashad was a running back at Oregon by the name of Bobby Moore.

You can find my work covering Washington State on Examiner.com:

My favorite college game to take in? Either the one I have tickets to or just about any game on television.

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Tiger Woods

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Washington State Cougars

  • All-Time Sports Moment

    Kirk Gibson's improbable homerun off Dennis Eckersley. The only time in my life when I exhibited a 42" vertical leap. Oh yeah, we were there about 8 rows up behind first base. There was no doubt about Gibson's shot going. It was gone...all the way.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    2003 Holiday Bowl when the Cougs upset #4 Texas with a one-legged quarterback and monster defense. Close second would be the 1988 conference game when WSU upset the #1 ranked UCLA Bruins on their home turf in the Rose Bowl.

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    DiMaggio's 56 game hitting streak.

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Ruth, the quintessential bowler turned baseball player...

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Joe Montana was the prototypical winner. Period.

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Who?

  • ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?

    PAC-10 of course...are you kidding?

    Thanks for your reply Lew. I'll be sure to read your articles on examiner.com too. Over here on the west side, there is not very much good Cougars content in the PI or Times. When the PI started to run a feed from BR.com to their site, it was very refreshing but that fountain has since gone a little dry.

    Thanks again for your work!

    Go Cougs!

    No problem at all, Lew. From seeing all the articles you have, there aren't many hours left in the day. Hope to work with you again in the near future.
