About

I'm a recent graduate of Loyola University Chicago. Sports are a major passion of mine, from playing to watching and even participating in fantasy leagues. I am a die hard baseball fan, but also love watching other sports. Even a 6 hour cricket match can be fun if the right teams are playing! Without sports... my life would be half of what it is!

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Derek Jeter, Shaquille O'Neal, Jerry Rice, Ryan Glasper, Sachin Tendulkar, Muhammed Ali, Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, Ken Griffey Jr.

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    New York Yankees, New York Giants, Michigan Football, Boston Celtics, UConn Basketball

  • Favorite Coaches

    Joe Torre, Bill Walsh, Jim Calhoun

  • All Time Sports Moment

    The Giants winning Superbowl 42, Derek Jeter's "Mr. November" Homerun, Vince Carter's 2000 Slam Dunk Contest, UConn Men over Duke in 1999 Finals, Kobe to Shaq alley-oop against Portland

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    Yankees vs. Angels Opening Day 2010 and Ring Ceremony! (Binghamton Mets vs. New Britain Rock Cats is in the top 5... Harold Reynolds and Mets' GM Omar Minaya sat directly behind me!)

    Wilt Chamberlain's 100 points in a single basketball game! (Ripken's Ironman Record and Joltin Joe's Hitting Streak are tied for 2nd)

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Willie Mays... played against better players and still became a legend.

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Joe Montana. He and Jerry Rice were the best QB/WR combo in NFL history!

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Even though Russell has more championship rings than he does fingers... His Airness is the best to ever play the game!

    The Great One... without question!

    Pele's name is synonymous with soccer (futball) greatness around the world!

    Dale's legend will forever live on!

    WHO!?

    No problem on the edit Shashwat. That's cool you saw Griffey play, and in his MVP season, no less! The guy was a true superstar.

    Hey Shashwat enjoyed your articles. I see you are a yankees fan and I am on the hunt for a gameday program from the Angels series this year in August. Same one you noted as your favorite game above. I saw your article about the fans outside the stadium trying to collect all the tickets and didnt know if maybe you knew where I could land a game program for this series. Thanks Zeb

    Yep, I remember your dominance. My first three years in high school we lost to you guys. But now, we've won two in a row. I appreciate your handling my unprovoked dig at Southington with class. I know some people on this site would probably flip shit about something like that. Anyway, nice to meet someone on here who is from CT. Nutmeg Staters gotta stick together.

    A Duke fan and a Mets fan, we have our differences, but I'm glad to see we can defeat the odds and coexist! See you around!
