About Doug »

My family includes my beautiful wife and two sons. My wife and I have been married for five years, and I love her more now than the day I said "I do." My boys are both very young. My oldest will turn three in January 2009, and my youngest just turned a year old in August 2008. They are 19 months apart, and have been a blessing in our lives.

My favorite sport is Mixed Martial Arts. I have been a fan since viewing the first UFC event back in November, 1993. I have attended a number of local MMA shows in the Tampa area, as well as UFC 44: Undisputed featuring a main event between Randy Couture and Tito Ortiz for the undisputed UFC Light Heavyweight championship. I have been to high profile sporting events including NBA Finals and NFL playoffs games. None of those games matched the excitement and intensity of a mixed martial arts event. I am forever a fan...
