About Joe »

Joe is a recent graduate of THE Michigan State University and has developed an unhealthy obsession with soccer over the years.

As one of the MLS community leaders along with Thomas Leemon, he hopes to give the league a wider exposure through his writing. He is also always looking for new MLS writers to help the community grow.

His sporting interests encompass more than just the Beautiful Game though. At any given time you can find him watching baseball, basketball, American football and hockey, or trying to understand cricket.

When not writing, he finds time to cheer for Arsenal, Shrewsbury Town, Fulham, Glasgow Rangers, the Chicago Fire, the US National Team, the Cincinnati Bengals, the Detroit Tigers and of course his beloved Michigan State Spartans.

Please post any questions/comments/concerns/delightful quips/death threats on his bulletin board and he will respond in due time.

Joe,

How the hell is it that we've been on the website for almost the same amount of time - the fact you haven't written anything in a month and yet you still have twice as many articles as me? INTERESTING. And by interesting, I mean infuriating.

Anyway, I wrote this little piece that explores sports talk radio and I wanted you to tell me what you thought. Hope you like it.
