About

I'm a University of Tennessee graduate who enjoys sports and pop culture as well as poetry, a glass of scotch and of course my friend Baxter here.

But in all seriousness, I'm an unabashed Florida Gators fan who tries to be impartial. Muschamp is righting the ship in Gainesville, but I'm trying to temper my expectations.

I've been a Broncos fan since I can remember as a result of my mom's lifelong crush on John Elway. In fact, I was the only kid in my 4th grade gym class to pick the Broncos over the Packers in Super Bowl XXXII. Suck it, Favre.

I hated the Braves until I was 14 -- now I love them. I hope Chipper enjoys retirement and that BJ Upton bats above .230.

I try to follow soccer, I try not to follow hockey, and I wish the popularity of the two would turn on their axes.

Anyway, I blog at gotbrass.blogspot.com. And by blog I mean post inappropriate commentary on the world around me. Give it a look, if you're so inclined.
