About

I'm an 18 year old high school senior from Michigan. I attend Central Michigan University and major in Journalism. I am currently trying out for their division one baseball team and was just hired as a sports writer by the university's award-winning newspaper, the CM-Life.

Other sports I follow pretty regularly are hockey and college football. I think the NFL is slow-paced and monotonous compared with the college youth and energy. Same with basketball. I never watch the NBA, unless there's some thug throwing a fist in someone's face. Golf is alright if I want to fall asleep watching something.

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Brett Favre, Nicklas Lidstrom, Tim Lincecum, Mark Grace, Greg Maddux

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Chicago Cubs

  • All-Time Sports Moment

    Boston Red Sox winning the 2004 World Series.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    Chicago Cubs vs. Philadelphia Phillies, August 22nd, 2006. It was the first time I'd been to Wrigley Field. I always tell people that being a big Cubs fan and going to Wrigley is like a through-and-through Christian going to the birthplace of Jesus, just on a slightly smaller scale.

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    Career homerun record.

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Ruth because he is the face of baseball, period.

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Unitas because he is our connection between old-time and current football.

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Jordan, he played with so much heart.

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Gretzky. Nobody in hockey was or is more fun to watch.

  • Pele or Maradona?

    Wish I knew who these guys are.

  • Tiger or Nicklaus?

    Tiger!

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    Earnhardt, RIP.

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

    Big 10 (regional identity, I AM from Michigan after all), but the SEC is the strongest. The SEC turns up strong teams in every sport.

    Hey everybody!

    I've been keeping up a site of my own, just learning how to create and manage different internet tricks.
    The site is www.wrigleyivy.blogspot.com
    I TRY to update it everyday, so please don't turn into Hulk if I'm a day or two behind. Senior year of high school is very busy, especially with baseball coming alive.
    And feel free to leave me an email!

    Thanks!

    Stay classy,
    Adam
