About

Originally from Roselle Park, New Jersey; I now live in Phoenix, Arizona. Born on Novmber 22nd, 1989. I have the same birthday as the late Rodney Dangerfield, Robert Vaughn, Billy Jean King, Jamie Lee Curtis, Mark Ruffalo, Terry Gilliam, Jay Payton, Ricky Ledee, Joe Nathan, SCARLETT JOHANSEN, and sports writer Scoop Jackson.

Sports is one of my two great loves, the other is movies. You should expect to see movie references in nearly all of my opinion articles, I'm sorry but I can't help it.

My favorite movie of all-time is Once Upon a Time in America, other favorites include Vertigo, Idi I Smotri, Double Indemnity, It Happened One Night, Apocalypse Now, and many more.

Favorite Actors are Robert DeNiro, Jimmy Stewart, Paul Newman, Humphrey Bogart, and Robert Mitchum. Favorite Actresses are Audrey Hepburn, Bette Davis, Barbara Stanwyck, Vivien Leigh, and Ingrid Bergman.

Favorite Directors are Alfred Hitchcock, Henri Clouzot, Sergio Leone, Martin Scorsese, Akira Kurosawa, Billy Wilder, Stanley Kubrick, Michael Haneke, and Christopher Nolan.

Enough about movies though, onto my passion for sports. I know that in my short life I have been blessed with successful sports teams. Though I was young I can remember the final SB the Dallas Cowboys won in 1995, 3 Stanley Cups from the New Jersey Devils, a New York Yankees dynasty from 1996-2000, and even got back to back NBA Finals appearances from the New Jersey Nets. I won't be satisfied though, I'd give an arm for a New York Yankees title right now, in a few months that would be the case for the Cowboys, and then the Devils and Nets. Sports will always be a part of me, I'm very proud of my teams and if you say anything negative about one of them...I...Will...Fight...You!

You might have guessed that my favorite athlete of all-time is Scott Stevens. How fitting is it that my idol that gave me so many great moments was the topic of the article that not only promoted me to Analyst but that brought me my first and currently my only POTD! On Sunday evening, May 10th, 2009, I wrote this tribute to the Hall of Famer that won the following day- http://bleacherreport.com/articles/172153-scott-stevens-forever-beloved-forever-hated-and-forever-remembered

Thank you Scotty!

    Hey Matt, I've recently written a new article you may be interested in reading:

    "The Miami Dolphin Crime Family: Tony and the Sparanos"

    http://bleacherreport.com/articles/398543-tony-and-the-sparanos-the-miami-dolphin-crime-family

    Come read about how the Miami Dolphins have become the franchise with the most arrests in the NFL, a story no one else in the media seems to be following, and a problem that the Dolphins don't seem interested in correcting.

    JW Nix made a great argument for the suspension of Brady Quinn. However, after I examined it, I felt that Brady Quinn needed a defense attorney.
