About

I am a student at Drexel University in Philadelphia and your typical die hard Eagles fan. With a father who has had season tickets for the Eagles for over 30 years, I became a fan at quite an early age. I'm very passionate about all sports, but when it comes to the Eagles nobody else even comes close. Writing is just one of the ways I like to share my passion for the team. I am the owner of BirdsFan.com, a Philadelphia Eagles blog where all of my work can be found.

I look forward to networking with other writers who have as much of a passion for the team as I do. Feel free to message me anytime!

    Actually, I'm no longer a Drexel student - I graduated in 1989 so I'm a proud Dragon alum (though not as proud since Jamie Harris turned to a life of crime).

    I make my living with the BA Business degree from Drexel as an accountant in Exton. I used to cover HS sports free-lance in Chester County but the paper went under in 2007. I'm dipping my toe into writing again because a Mets fan (imagine that) told me I shold turn my water-cooler rants into a Phillies blog.

    I'm waiting to hear if this site will pick it up, but it is edgy, satirical humor and they may not want to publish me.

    Can you get contact info to me?
