Born in Wakefield, Rhode Island, I was raised a fan of the Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics, and Bruins (in that order). I spent the first five years of my life there before moving to Chicago. I lived there a few years, but eventually moved to Ecuador, which was quite the change of scenery. There I became an avid soccer fan but never disconnected myself from New England sports. I eventually moved back and I am now a greater fan than i ever was. I am once again living in Chicago and laughing at how much Chicago fans think that there teams are the best. I simply point out the 21st century domination of sports by the Bostonian Empire. I was born a New England fan and I will die one, no exceptions.
