I'm a pretty open-minded person, but I enjoy playing and watching sports both on TV and in person. Favorites to watch are baseball, hockey, football and nascar. I love playing stickball during the spring and summer. Basketball is fun, but for me it's tough to watch, gotta be on the court chucking up that three at the buzzer!! I also listen to alot of music which'll be more detailed below.
Considering I'm a sports freak, most of the people I'd like to meet are athletes. Present day, i'd like to meet Mike Piazza, Tiki Barber, Mark Messier, Wayne Gretzky, Bobby Orr, Danica Patrick (I MET HER!!), Dale Earnhardt Jr. . . just to name a few. But I'd love to run into Ted Williams, Joe DiMaggio, Lee Petty, Lester Patrick, Jim Thorpe, Jackie Robinson, and Roberto Clemente during their heyday.
Just about all music I appreciate (most of it comes from the heart, so how can you not??), but my favorite bands/artists are (just to name a few): Guns N' Roses, Corrs, Sean Hopkins, John Mayer, U2, Bruce Springsteen, Sarah McLaughlin, Fisher, His Mighty Robot, Alison Krauss, DJ Shadow, Keane, Michael Buble, Billy Joel, Bryan Adams, and Garth Brooks.
I'm a sucker for romantic-comedies, which is probably why a couple of my favorite movies are Notting Hill and Wedding Singer. But other movies I enjoy are Shawshank Redemption, Forrest Gump, Usual Suspects, Bull Durham, Field of Dreams, Major League, My Cousin Vinny, the Die Hard series and Shrek.
Ouside of sports, i don't watch much TV. The few shows that I watch are Sportscenter (does that count??), Smallville, Mythbusters, Grey's Anatomy, and Scrubs.
Books?? What are those??
My Abuela and Abuelo. They have had an enormous impact on the man that I am today.
