Interesting Facts:

What is your favorite game or sport to watch or play?

Much like everyone else in the South, I’m a huge football fan. I’m a die-hard Tennessee Titans fan and have been since their inaugural season in 1999. I record all of their games to only re-watch them during the off season. I watch a lot of losing football, but there’s always next year!

What do you love to do outside of work?

I enjoy getting my hands dirty in the yard or by taking on a project around the house. My wife has cut off my visits to any home improvement store or nursery in my local area. She’s also learned to not mention any home improvements that she’s like to see down the road, because they get done immediately.

If you could have any other fantasy career what would it be and why?

I would love to be a fantasy football analyst to help others achieve success in their endeavors. I can “nerd out” with all the information that goes into the process.
