Not much to say. I'm a Philadelphia native, living in Anaheim, CA for three years while I attend law school. I love sports, particularly baseball. It takes a brain to really love baseball. That is what makes it different from other sports. You have to really understand the nuances of the game to really love it, and the more you learn about it the more interesting it gets.
