About John »

My name is John Shirey, I'm 22 years old and am currently attending the university of Florida. I am majoring in Mathematics with a minor in Business. I am newly married to my girlfriend of 10 years, Jessica. I was born and raised in Jacksonville, Florida. I am the ultimate Florida Gators fan, Jacksonville Jaguars fan and Orlando magic fan. I've been a sports fan since I was ten years old, by fourteen I could tell you the stats of any player from any team. With school and a wife I don't have as much time on my hands to do all of that anymore but I still devote my weekends to football.
