About

My name is Eric Matula. I earned an English/Writing degree from King's College, a small, private Catholic school, in Wilkes-Barre, PA. During my stay, I was a four-year starter as a pitcher and first baseman on the baseball team. I was cut by the Philadelphia Phillies, and figured the best way to stay around the game was to become a sports writer.

I'll dominate pretty much anyone in Wii baseball, tennis, and table tennis. I like playing golf, even though I just started playing. I figure I have approximately 26 years to make the Champions Tour. Other interests include: playing Call of Duty, drinking grape soda, checking my fantasy teams every 30 seconds, and listening to indie music.
