About

Andrew is a devil's advocate and all 'round muckraker. He has an opinion on most anything and while not always right, it's never dull. Andrew's background is as a playwright/actor who decided to go back and get his sheepskin. He holds degrees in History, Political Science and Law (pending). Other sports-writers use Statistics, Andrew uses Heuristics! The status quo is boring and it will be questioned and often ridiculed.

He loves him some NFL and he has attended games at half the current NFL stadiums. A list of some of the most interesting games includes:
January 4, 1997, Divisional Playoff, Green Bay Packers 35, San Francisco 49ers 14. (The Mud-Bowl).
January 6, 1996, Divisional Playoff, Green Bay Packers 27, San Francisco 49ers 17 (Only 1990s NFC Divisional Playoff Road win).
January 25, 1998, Superbowl XXXII,
September 9, 2001, Regular Season Opener, San Diego Chargers 30, Washington Redskins 3 (LaDainian Tomlinson's NFL debut. He ran for 113 yards and 2 TDs)
November 04, 2007, Regular Season, Minnesota Vikings 35, San Diego Chargers 17 (Adrian Peterson Breaks Single Game Rushing Record with 296 yards and Antonio Cromartie's 109 yard return sets a record that may one day be matched but can never be beaten.)
