About

The Beach Boys once said "be true to your school" and I couldn't be more proud to be a Spartan product—not to be confused for the extremely cheap retail produce goods.

Born and raised in Grand Rapids, MI I have always lived, died and bled green for Spartan sports before, during and after my graduation in 2004.

I can be found watching them and other in state favorites (Pistons, Lions, Tigers, etc) on satellite at local establishments in the Upper West Side of NYC, my residence for the last five years.

I also have adopted some of the classic non-Yankee (hate) New York teams such as the Giants, Jets and Mets.

I look forward to slinging some sports here with the Bleacher Report and hobnobbing with you other dignified sports fans out there.

Go Green!

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Bill Laimbeer, Charles Barkley, A.J. Granger, Mateen Cleaves, Morris Petersen,Maurice Ager, Drew Neitzel,Barry Sanders, Steve Yzerman, Cecil Fielder, QB Eagles, Kirk Gibson, etc

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Spartan basketball, Spartan football, Pistons, Lions, Tigers, Red Wings, etc

  • Favorite Coaches

    Tom Izzo, Mark Dantonio, Bobby Knight, Lou Holtz

    Every single Spartan Final Four run

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    Every game I've ever went to with my dad

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    Dimaggio hit streak

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Ruth (will anyone ever hit and pitch like him again...nope...)

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Montana (4-0 Super Bowl record, he just knew how to win games with limited physical ability...all heart and soul. John Elway is the only argument against Montana...and I still take Joe. )

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Jordan (not as many titles as Russell, but just think of everything he did for the game...the high flying... the advertising... there will never be anything like him)

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Gretzky (just look at the stats... four seasons with 200+ points...wow!)

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Not sure.

  • Federer or Sampras?

    Aggasi

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    Jack

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    Don't care!

  • Schumacher or Senna?

    Don't care!

  • ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?

    The conferences are getting out of hand. The Big 10 isn't really "the Big 10" anymore... the Big 12 is the Big 10 and vice versa. Wherever the Spartans are... I am.

    Hey Ryan, I appreciate the edits!

    When you say I need to embed the photo in the website, do you mean I need to further embed it on my blog so that it imports correctly? Or do I need to select the photo once it arrives here as an import?

    Thanks again!
