About

I'm a native of the thriving metropolis of Corvallis, Oregon, and an avid Oregon State Beaver fan.

My other teams of interest are the San Francisco 49ers and the Portland Trail Blazers, yet as I believe college football the only sport worth my spare time, it takes up all the time I have allotted in my life for the "world of sports."

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Jerry Rice, Joe Montana, Jaquizz Rodgers

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Oregon State Beavers, San Francisco 49ers, Portland Trail Blazers

  • All-Time Sports Moment

    Kenny Simonton's game-winning TD in the 2nd Overtime of the '98 Civil War to get the Beavers out over the hump of football mediocrity.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    The Emerald Bowl, December 28, 2007, in good ol, San Francisco. Oregon State beat Maryland, 21-7, and my brother and I, after driving all the way down Highway 101 on the coast with my dad all day to be there, got to celebrate on the wet, soggy field with the Beavers after the win.

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    Cal Ripken Jr.'s "Ironman" streak of consecutive games played.

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Ruth would eat Mays with room to spare for hot dogs.

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Montana in the clutch, no one better.

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Jordan. He absolutely transcended basketball.

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Gretzky, and not just because he asked my mom out on a date before my parents were married back in a gelato shop in AZ. (True story.)

  • Pele or Maradona?

    No habla soccer.

  • Federer or Sampras?

    Federer on an off day.

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    Tiger

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    No habla hick.

  • Schumacher or Senna?

    Eh?

  • ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?

    Pac 10. We don't have domestic violence situations over our sports here. That's comforting to me. Oh, and we kick butt too.
