About Me

Layout Provided By FreeCodeSource.com - Myspace LayoutsI am the Assistant GM for the San Jose Giants, the Class A affiliate of the San Francisco Giants. I really enjoy my job, even when I say I hate it. I get to work around a lot very cool and interesting people, whether it be those I work with, those who work for me, or the fans.My favorite hobby is to "kick it". I love sitting on my deck all day and watch the world go by, while I BBQ and read my book. I enjoy the beach, rivers, pools, or any other kind of body of water that lets you sit by it and do nothing.I love sports. Cougar basketball is awesome (oh yeah, we have a football team too). I also root for the Padres, Orioles (unfortunately), Redskins, Sharks, Warriors, & Chargers on the professional sports side of things. I love boxing and horse racing. Going to a boxing match is one of my favorite sports to see live. I've followed horse racing for years- The Preakness is VERY high on my "To Do" list for next year. I have also taken a recent liking to college baseball (at least the CWS) and NASCAR (we'll see how long that lasts).I also am really into music. I guess my favorite is good hip hop- not that bling bling crap you hear on the radio- but good hip hop- Tribe (favorite), De La, Little Brother, RJD2, Wu, MURS, etc... I also have gotten really into old soul music- Motown & Staxx albums. I also like good old fashioned rock n' roll, jazz, some pop music, and even a little country (a very little). I cannot stand Nickelback- or anyone else who writes crappy songs but insists they are some kind of artist. I love going to concerts- Rock The Bells will be the event of the summer!! But I will go see almost anything live- from Rod Stewart to the Who to Wu-Tang Clan.What else? I like to vacation. I love Las Vegas even though it likes to kick my ass. I'll bet on just about anything. I like the occasional cocktail- if you would like to buy me a drink, I prefer Jim Beams and Diet Cokes, Miller Lite, Harp, and Bloody Marys. My favorite bar activities are Dueling Pianos, shuffleboard, darts, and strangely enough- karaoke.
