About

I hit a solid .120 as a four year starter on my high school softball team, and that's about as much sports success I've had. Oh, and I nailed a half-court short in a junior varsity middle school basketball game.

So I decided to spend mind-numbing hours watching SportsCenter (every single broadcast) and gorging on sports history. Now I'm here. I'm also on Twitter (@amiskowiec) and on a blog (societalsports.blogspot.com).
