About Me
43% Complete Bio
Is there a better sports town than Chicago? Is there a better city than Chicago? I heard both growing up and now agree. Extensive travel and momentary exile to the East coast have led me to embrace my birth city and revel in it's greatness.
About me . . . typical middle age male sports fan. Less a participant more of a voyeur as life eats up waking hours. Sports participation now reduced to "search & destroy" missiions for small, dimpled, white spheres.

Teams
Nick
Hates
| St. Louis Cardinals | |
| Why I Hate Them: | Grew up near Wrigley Field. Can't help but hate the Cards. |
| Players I Hate: | Anyone wearing Cards colors except Gibson, Brock and Pujols. Their greatness transends petty team hatred. |
| Minnesota Vikings | |
| Why I Hate Them: | Vi-Queens are the consumate second rate NFL organization. Love Boat was a true laugh. |
| Players I Hate: | Chris Carter, Chris Doleman, Chuck Foreman, Fran Tarkington, Joe Kapp, everyone on their current roster. |
| New York Yankees | |
| Why I Hate Them: | Because the team and their fans are boorish. Keep spending, guys. |
| Players I Hate: | CC Sabathia, A Rod, Aj Burnett, Mark TAXeira and everyone on the team except Jeter. I wish he played elsewhere. |
| Green Bay Packers | |
| Why I Hate Them: | Those Cheese Heads for starters. Their string of success against The Beloved Bears. Brett Favre! If hubris was a component of the NFL QB rating - Brett is off the charts. |
| Players I Hate: | Everyone who played for the Green & Gold with the exception of Bart Starr and the 1967 Ice Bowl champs - that team was comprised of Men! Favre, Favre, Favre, Favre. Yeah, I know he was a NY Jet last season, but he will always be a Packer in my mind. |
| New York Jets | |
| Why I Hate Them: | Rex Ryan! I detest the way the media exhalts the Jets - just because they play in New York. |
| Players I Hate: | Rex Ryan (I know he is not a player, but he is at the top of my loathesome list), Sanchez, Braylon Edwards, Santonio Holmes, Revis, etc.etc etc |
