Bob was born and raised in Milwaukee. He always felt an affinity to Wisconsin for three definite reasons. Bob was born in 1957, and that was the year that Lambeau Field was originally built and also the year the city of Milwaukee won their only World Series as the Braves defeated the Yankees in 7 games. Plus, Bob was born on May 29th, which is the same day Wisconsin became a state in 1848.

Bob attended UW-Oshkosh for a couple of years where he became good friends with Kevin Cosgrove, who later became the defensive coordinator at the University of Wisconsin, the University of Nebraska, the University of Minnesota, the University of Akron and most recently became part of the University of New Mexico coaching staff under Bob Davie. Kevin helped Barry Alvarez and the Badgers win three Big 10 championships and win three Rose Bowls.

Bob finished up college at UW-Milwaukee where he majored in Mass Communication. Bob was an intern at WTMJ, where he also was kept on as a reporter for awhile. Bob was also sports director at Viacom cable in the Milwaukee area.

Bob helped his parents move to their winter home in Florida in 1983, and it was during that time that he met his wife Pam. Bob has lived in Florida since then, but Pam, son Andrew and Bob come up to Wisconsin every summer to Cedar Grove, where his family has a summer home right on Lake Michigan. Cedar Grove is only about an hour or so south of Green Bay.

As Bob was looking for media jobs in Florida when he first moved there, he eventually ended up in sales, and was with Xerox for several years. Bob has also become a voice of Wisconsin on sports radio in the Tampa Bay area for almost two decades. Bob has been a regular caller at 620 WDAE, as he is known as Green Bay Bob. Bob closely follows the Packers, Badgers, Brewers, Bucks, Panthers and Golden Eagles, but also enjoys sports in Florida as he is a big supporter of the Rays, Lightning, Bulls and Gators plus enjoys the Bucs, when they aren't playing the Packers.

Bob always had the itch to return to the media, and he became a writer at a Packer website called ThaPack for a couple of years, before he joined Packer Report, where he had been for several years, before joining Wisconsin Sports Online (Packer Chatters) writing about the Packers, Badgers and Brewers. Bob also occasionally writes for JoeBucsFan.com which covers the Tampa Bay Bucs, and also used to write for JoeBoltsFan.com which covers the Tampa Bay Lightning when the site was operational.

Bob is very pleased to be aboard the Bleacher Report team.
