About

I'm 21 years old. I go to Messiah College. I'm a Business Administration major and a journalism minor.

I can say without hesitation that I am the biggest Eagles and Phillies fan that has ever lived. I even worked for the Eagles in the 2007 season.

I still can't believe that the Phillies won the World Series. I will never forget being in the city on Monday for the first 5.5 innings, on Wednesday for the last 3 innings, and on Friday for the parade. They say that school comes first—I don't think so.

I think that Philadelphia fans have been given an unfair rap by just about everybody since one particular incident involving a 19-year-old kid in 1968. In reality, there is no city in the world that displays passion for its teams like we do. We are the most knowledgeable fans in the world. We want perfection, and if you don't give us perfection, we will let you know. We may boo our players, but do we ever stop going to the games? No. Those that criticize us are simply jealous of our unbelievable passion.

I have a competitive desire unmatched by any person I've ever interacted with in my life and I love debating, preferably with people who actually know what they're talking about. I would give anything to compete on a baseball and football version of Stump the Schwab.

I love baseball and football history, and I don't think that current fans know enough about the history of the game. Learn it. It makes you a better person. I am a member of the Society for American Baseball Research. It's really awesome--look it up.

I own 34 Eagles jerseys.

I'm trying to invent a statistic. It's called passer rating plus (PR+), and it's the football version of ERA+. It's going to be a way to measure quarterbacks based on the intangibles that cannot be measured.

"The fans are on their feet. I'm going to be on my feet. This is truly exciting. No balls and two strikes. Two outs. Little bit low and away, one ball and two strikes..... Myers has the sign from Chris Coste. Curveball, struck him out! The Phillies are National League East champions! Look at the scene on the field! Look at the scene in the stands! This is incredible! The Phillies are National League East champions and will go to the postseason for the first time since 1993!"

I contributed to Cold Hard Football Facts for about a year. I get paid to write about the Philadelphia Eagles for Eagles Central on rantsports.com. I wrote about the Philadelphia Phillies for Philly Buster on rantsports.com. And now I am the Philadelphia Phillies writer for examiner.com.

Eagles Central was named as the 2010 Ballhyped Readers' Choice Sports Blog of the Year. Thanks to all who voted, and to DeSean Jackson for advertising on his official website/facebook page!

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    I was at the last game of the legendary four-game sweep of the Mets last August. I had to leave the game in the 8th inning to go usher at the Eagles preseason game versus the New York Jets. I missed Jayson Werth's dramatic steals of second and third, and Chase Utley's walk-off single. I was also working on the day we wore our 75th anniversary jerseys and beat the Detroit Lions 56-21.

    Byrn, although I don't always agree with you I do appreciate that your writing is proofed and much more professional than most on Bleacher. I get really tired of reading bad grammar and poorly spelled words. Writing is a craft and I'm glad at your age you're smart enough to understand that. Cheers. Oh, BTW, the Eagles suck. Vick rules, however, but only because I'm a Hokie.
