Eric's Bio

My name is Eric. I am currently a student at the University of Central Florida in Orlando, but am originally from New Jersey. My favorite sports teams are the New York Mets, New York Giants, and New York Rangers. I attend as many UCF football and basketball games as I can, but professional sports are my real passion. My other interests besides sports are movies, music, politics, and my work.

Most Bleacher Report writers know Dominick DiFucci. I have asked him to help me organize a fantansy baseball league this season made up of Bleacher Report writers. This could be a blast. If you're interested in joining send me your email address and we will contact with the details. The format has not yet been established and we encourage your suggestions. Also spread the word to people you know on the site as well. It could be an awesome league. I'm a novice at this but Dom is the shits. He knows this stuff inside out and forwards and backwards. Contact me at rsmcloser@cox.net. Do it ASAP. Thanks.
