About Richard »

A transplanted Philadelphia sports nut that lives in Burlington Vermont. (Thank god for Directv and XM.) I am in sales management, but have a broadcasting background. I have done play by play and color analysis for High School, College and Minor League sports on the radio. I also have co-hosted a weekly sports talk program on a regional radio network.

I love the Phillies and College Basketball. The Eagles, Sixers and Flyers break my heart regularly. My newest passion is college hockey. UVM College Hockey is the granddaddy of all sports in Burlington. After four years of 'ice country' I've learned that Bob Norton can annoy me just as much as Billy Packer does.

i some how managed to miss your articles on UVM up until today. good stuff. as a northeasten student and huge fan, i like finding writers for other hockey east teams.

i have been writing weekly hockey east articles for the past few weeks, and will probably continue doing so. considering i graduate this year and will have more free time next season, i don't see a reason why i won't continue.

you should check 'em out.

good luck to you and your catamounts this weekend

Hey Richard,

If you're interested, I've projected what the ACC will look like in March (it's set in stone! why even play the games? ;)

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/118501-longview-projecting-the-rest-of-the-acc-season

As long as this took, I can't even imagine trying it with the Big East ... yikes.

Hope you're doing well!
