About

I am:

- A faithful optimist. Things have certainly not gone according to MY plans but the end result is better than I could have ever hoped. I have three wonderful sons and a beautiful wife. My family makes me want to be a better person.

- An investment advisor so that means that I have an uncanny ability to coach people away from the edge of irrationalization.

- A die-hard Phillies Phan. Last year was a dream come true for me. A few of the games that I attended last year include: opening day (3/31), the NLE division clincing win (9/27/2008) and the decisive game 5 of the World Series (10/27 - 10/29).

- A sports junkie. I love sports and I think that coaches are special people. A good coach can touch countless lives and the values that you learn from playing a team sport last a lifetime.

    Hey,

    The biggest week of games to date this season begins for the Mets with Six games against the Phillies and the Yankees, its a real test for a team that has dealt with quite a bit during this early part of the season. With this I'm presenting another version of my Top Five with the subject centering around how the Mets can be successful this week against the Phils and Yanks. I hope you enjoy and thanks in advance.

    Hey Chuck,

    Ryan Zimmerman’s hit streak halted at 30 games last night. As one streak ends, another is admired. Read about how Joe DiMaggio forever redefined ’56,’ and how his feat may never be broken. It is a record that thankfully cannot be broken through steroid use, and represents all that was once right in a game that has since gone so wrong.

    Thanks in advance!

    Chuck,

    Right now we all need to take time out of our day, and pray for Jim Johnson. The Philadelphia Eagle's defensive coordinator who was diagnosed with skin cancer. Let me know what you think. Thanks
