About Ian »

I'm Ian. I'm a 19-year-old aspiring sportswriter from Philadelphia, PA attending the University of Missouri. I enjoy Chase Utley, anything having to do with Chase Utley, and even some things that don't have to do with Chase Utley (although most of it does).

I'm obviously a huge fan of the Phillies, but I also dig the Eagles, Flyers, Sixers and all of Mizzou's teams.
