About

Michael Whooley lives in the happiest place on Earth. No,not Disneyland; rather that beautiful city known as San Bruno in the wondrous state of California. A graduate of Providence College in Rhode Island, Michael has also done his time on the East Coast and has come to the conclusion that the West Coast truly is the Best Coast. Seriously, who needs snow? Michael emerged from his mother's womb decked in the red and gold of his beloved San Francisco 49ers. Growing up in the Bay Area in the late 80s and early 90s, Michael was spoiled and got to enjoy some of the best football any team has ever played (not just opinion, but a fact as solid as the fact that the male seahorse has the babies - look it up!) Trips to Candlestick Park to see the 49ers with his grandma were frequent occurrences. Though with the way his grandma screamed at opposing fans, Michael is surprised his parents kept letting him go. Those trips helped turn him into a sports fanatic, always looking for ways to fuel his passion even further. High school athletics, college intramurals, rec leagues, a 4 year gig as a Sports Talk Show Host on WDOM 91.3 FM Providence College Radio, and an internship for the Sports Department at ABC 6 (WLNE TV) in Providence Rhode Island are just a few of the ways that Michael has involved himself with sports. However, these all pale in comparison to his role with Bruno Boys Fantasy Football. An avid player of fantasy football since the 7th grade, Michael, in 2005 along with Marc Caviglia, decided to use his vast fantasy football knowledge to do some good in the world and inform all those lost souls who needed guidance when it came to their fantasy football squads, and out of nothing, came what you know today as Bruno BoysFantasy Football.

    WONDERFUL Post.thanks for share..more wait .. …There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in carros honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Both boys and girls feel the impact of just a moment’s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.

    JW Nix made a great argument for the suspension of Brady Quinn. However, after I examined it, I felt that Brady Quinn needed a defense attorney.
