I am here for Friends

About Me

25. Male. Pisces. UCLA. I enjoy: Great movies and sensible politics, camping, kayaking, the Golden Gate Bridge, my 4-Runner, a finely brewed IPA, Coronas on a hot summer day, Breakfast burritos, Road doggs, Paplebon striking out the side in the 9th, a killer guitar solo, David Ortiz walk-off Homers, Taco Tues, Barbequing and girls who watch Sports Center. I love my friends and family and never take them for granted. I'd compare my basketball game to Larry Johnson Circa 1998. I have a favorite couple, it's Nick and Jessica and I still remember the good times. I'm not afraid to admit I have a soft spot for The Hills, but the Real World just doesn't do it for me anymore. I think it's funny that if a girl looks good in a picture, it's going up on her Myspace no matter how ass the rest of her friends are looking. I currently have a crush on Rachel McAdams and Penolope Cruz and I'm developing a serious one on Penelope's younger, hotter sister. I can't believe I'm just now discovering her. And of course, Beonce. I'll have a conversation or argument w/ you about anything involving movies, sports or politics. I'm from San Fran and just moved back. Thank God.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

David 'Papi' Ortiz, Naomi Watts, Pedro Martinez, Keith Richards, Bill Clinton, Theo Epstein, Peter Gammons, Tim Russert, Martin Scorcesi, Al Pacino, Denzel, Chris Rock, Chris Berman, Nelly, Colin Ferrell, Steven Gerard and Jack Nicholson. Hobbs

Trade Deadline

Ok, So Gagne (it's either pronounced YanYe or GaGne, one of the other) goes to the Sawks. My first reaction was to throw up in my mouth. But then I realized, this is baseball in the 21st century. The ...

Barry Bonds and the Record

What a tired beaten subject this has become. One generation seems to be resistant and resentful. The other seems to be confused and unable to put it into context. I come from the latter. I came of age...

Red Sox Early Season Review

It's only the middle of week 4, but the way my Fantasy team has been struggling, it feels like mid-June. Of course that's beside the point, but I can't even remember my life before opening day and it ...
