There is No Place Like Nebraska

About Me

I grew up in Hoffman Estates, Illinois and moved to Lincoln to go to the University of Nebraska where I graduated in 2003 (yes to all my friends, I know I should be a doctor for as long as I was at UNL. Football tickets people, football tickets). I got married in 2004, and my wife Courtney (she also grew up in Hoffman Estates, IL) and I live in Lincoln, with our daughter Lauryn, our dog Red, and our cat Tuffy. She is a nurse and I am a P.E. teacher. I coach basketball and tennis where I teach, and in the summers I work at a baseball stadium for my brother. My wife just gave birth to our first daughter named Lauryn Angela on September 18, 2006 at 4:58 in the morning. She was 6lbs. 12 ozs. I like to play sports and workout since I have nothing else to do in the summer. I also like hanging out with my wife and daughter, along with my bro and friends. Love you too, Mom and Dad.

My Interests

Family, Friends, Nebraska Athletics, Chicago Cubs (and proud of it...100 years and counting...but this is the year...for real), sports.

I'd like to meet:

My Grandfathers.

Music:

Country is my favorite, but I like most anything other than heavy metal.

Movies:

Comedies (Anchorman is a good one, and I'm a fan of the American Pie movies, along with Major League). A Bronx Tale, A Time to Kill. The original Karate Kid is money too. My bro, Vic, and Ralph will agree with me that La Bamba is top 10 also...Oh Donna, Oh Donna.

Television:

ESPN and anything on Nebraska sports (doesn't matter what sport...it could be bowling for all I care). Love watching the Cubs, and I'm also partial to all those MTV shows.

Books:

Anything that talks about Nebraska Athletics, John Grisham, and The Miracle of St. Anthony's.

Heroes:

I'll say my family and friends...Especially my wife Courtney for giving me Lauryn.

Well...I'm getting ready to call Victor.  I have to win me some more gatorades in our bball series.  I'm at a little disadvantage though since he doesn't allow 3 pointers.  That way he ...

Baby

Today I just found out that my wife and I will be having a little baby girl.  Pretty damn exciting.  I didn't care if the baby was going to be a boy or a girl, but I think my bro was a littl...
