Looks like I was given Eastern Michigan University to play with... ironic as the day I got back in the NDL, I drove thru Ypsilanti, MI to visit the Corner Brewery and pick up some Mackinac Island Fudge Stout (yummy beer). Thanks to whomever gave me EMU in the draft, lol.

I'm married, work 3 part time jobs + freelance reporting (I work in radio covering Detroit sports... Tigers/Pistons/Lions/Wings/Michigan Football & Hoops home games). Love the life but it keeps me busy so I appreciate any and all who work around me schedule to get games in.

Seeing as this is football season, you can hear my in game reports on Sporting News Radio and Sirius NFL Radio from Michigan & Detroit Lions home games.

Edit: Found the History pages... My previous NDL stint was all of one season (Season 12) with Boston College before real life called and kept me too busy to stay active.

My wife is an EMU grad. She always wants me to take the Eagles, but I know better.

I actually grew up (and still am) a Michigan State fan so covering Michigan games can be tough... but the better they do the more work I get so I can deal with them winning so long as it's not against MSU (like this weekend).

I was at the triple OT game and watched the OTs from the end zone where Braylon made that ****ing catch. It pained me to no end to see that ball coming and see the MSU CB with his back turned not seeing it coming... I so badly wanted to jump 10 feet in front of me and knock the ball loose myself but that would have been the end of my reporting days... and I was far too young to risk that :lol:

He's actually a pretty big prick.

Thanks b76. I haven't wrote once since (outside of some short farm ones) so not sure I'll be able to live up to those long ass stories I wrote with Boston College... especially with me not having saved a video since NCAA '08... going to take some practice I'm afraid... Glad I left a positive impression though :) Thanks.

Welcome back man.
And I am glad to hear you are a Michigan State fan and not a Wolverine one!

I like the Spartans, hate the Wolverines.
OSU Buckeyes fan here.

good luck,
JD

Thanks JD. Too bad MSU/OSU don't get to play each other this season :(

Howdy Trendon. Owning a GLB team is like a full time job still... Brutal. Love those pictures from the NDL: Vegas thread... I got a good laugh reading those at work this afternoon.

I owned a GLB team too till this season.

I still have a few players out there.
jdnidle is my name on there.

I am thinking of quitting it soon though. It takes up a fair amount of time with just players if you want them to be good.
