AJ's Bio

I grew up in Savannah, GA and learned to love sports watching the Cowboys play with my family. Lived most of my life in either Savannah, or Charlotte, NC. BIG Carolina fan and think that the Carolina/Duke games are the best rivalry in all of sports, followed closely by Georgia/Florida and Cowboys/Redskins. I have two beautiful kids who I hope to teach the love of sports to (But my 6 year old daughter thinks its funny to pull against my teams!)
I think Tom Landry and Dean Smith are two of the greatest/classiest coaches in all of sports, and begged/cajoled/pleaded to name my son Landry. (Wife relented and agreed to make it his middle name!)
