Nathan's Bio

Born and raised in Chicago. I love everything about this city and it's people. I've been into sports as long as I can remember for it was one of the few of my family's traditions.

Take a look at my little tribute to William "the Fridge" Perry of the Chicago Bears.

See what you think.

It's not real football but I love the NFL as well. ;-)

nathan,

I'm going to do a Mock Draft using all of the NFL Team Community Leaders as GM's.
If you would like to join, please e-mail me ASAP, so I can get the draft out soon.
I'll fill you in on the picks that have already been made so you know who's still on the board.

Feel free to converse with any of the other Bears community leaders before you make your choice.

Depending on how quickly people respond, I'll decide if I'll go into round two.

Thanks,

John Arend
