About Cord »

Hello all,
I graduated from Chico State with a journalism degree a few years back. I live in the Bay Area, thus I am a huge San Francisco Giants fan and 49ers fan. I also really like the dismal Sacramento Kings and am a die-hard UCLA Bruin fan. As for the beautiful game, I support the mighty Arsenal, Juventus and really enjoy watching FC Barcelona play.
