Where do I begin? I'm a seventeen year old die-hard fan of the New York Rangers and San Francisco Giants. I was born in Staten Island, New York before moving to New Jersey when I was five years old. I've been watching hockey for as long as I can remember and first remember understanding the sport and rooting for the Rangers when I was seven years old and Wayne Gretzky, my idol was playing at Madison Square Garden. I go to as many games as I can but wish I was a season ticket holder so I could see them all. In all of my sports articles and broadcasts, I try to be as impartial as possible when talking about the sports I love; putting the sport before the team, but sometimes the fan in me comes out. I am also one of, if not the first Ranger fan to own a Brandon Dubinsky jersey.

I don't just watch hockey but I play and coach it as well. During all months, no matter what the weather is like, I enjoy playing street hockey blasting shots away at who ever the poor soul is standing in net. When September rolls around, I put down the stick for a bit and pick up a whistle to coach a floor hockey team for kids in grades two to five hoping to teach them the skills and experience I've learned.

Aside from hockey, I also enjoy baseball and am a die-hard San Francisco Giants fan who is obsessed to the point that since I don't get many games on TV, I watch MLB Gameday, watching little blips on a screen telling me balls and strikes. I haven't written as many Giants articles as Rangers but hope to in the future.

Other then sports I am a huge fan of old movies with my favorite actor and hero being John Wayne. My favorite movies include "2001: A Space Odyssey", "Full Metal Jacket", "The Shining", "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly" and "There Will Be Blood". On the music side I loves classic rock and am a huge fan of Neil Young and Crazyhorse, The Eagles, and Electric Light Orchestra among many others.

With respect to my hero, I try to go by this saying as much as possible: "I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other people and I require the same from them."

I'm the community leader for the New York Rangers section and I love interacting with my fellow writers on this site and any fans as well. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to post them on my bulletin board or email me at nyr1199@comcast.net. Also, for anyone with A.I.M, my screen name is CRAZYHORSENYR.
