About

I'm a recent graduate of Luther College in Iowa, I write a column for the Albert Lea Tribune in Minnesota and am currently hanging out in San Diego, California. Naturally my sports allegiances are to teams in St. Louis. If you're a Norse, Hawkeye or genuine St. Louis Rams fan, hit me up.

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    The entire greatest show on turf down to the immortal Adam Timmerman

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    St. Louis Rams, St. Louis Cardinals, Utah Jazz, Iowa State Cyclone Basketball.

  • Favorite Coaches

    Dick Vermeil, Jerry Sloan, and the man who taught me how to shoot a J in 3rd grade: Tim Floyd.

  • All Time Sports Moment

    Mike Jones' tackle on Kevin Dyson in the Superbowl. Perfect age for a great sports moment.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    Iowa State v Texas Tech in 2002. I witnessed Seneca Wallace run 120 yards on one play.

    Thanks for the edits Sam and the comment "You have some good building blocks to becoming a good writer." Of course, since I've been writing for years it's about time, isn't it? LOL

    Hey, thanks for the edit and the explanation. I had to put that together quickly so I'm not surprised parts of it were unclear. Thanks again.
