David's Bio

I hate writing bios--bios are meant to be written at a later point in life, when you have stopped accomplishing things. That is why I don't write them, other than to say "I don't write them."

Slide Jeremy Slide!!!


Most Memorable Game Attended

2002 San Diego Chargers @ Oakland Raiders. Sebastian Slant-ikowski missed two field goals early (one was 27 yards). Rich Gannon led the Raiders back to tie the game by the end, but the Chargers got the ball in overtime, nickelback Terrence Shaw was flagged for pass interference that prevented 3 and out. The Chargers went down the field where LaDainian Tomlinson iced the game on a 15 yard TD.


Most Unbreakable Sports Record

Joe DiMaggio's hitting streak of 56


Ruth or Mays?

Willie Mays all the way. If Willie Mays had gotten all the home runs that were blown back into Candlestick Park--he would have had 800+ homers for his career.


Unitas or Montana?

Joe Montana, no question. Nothing against Johnny Unitas, but what gets lost in the history of Joe Montana is that he won two rings WITHOUT Jerry Rice.


Pele or Maradona?

Pele, but I still love Maradona's "Hand of God"


Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

Pac 10 all the way.
