Michael's Bio
Name: Michael
Age: 45
Single or Married: Single
Current residence: Southwest Washington
A rabid baseball fan as well as very passionate about college football & hoops. Just getting back into the NFL after being away from the sport for the past five years. After living in Vegas where you can't escape football, I got really burned out on it. Truth be told, I just got sick and tired of hearing about it 24/7/365, but this year I decided to get back into it and am looking forward to the upcoming season.
I also am an avid camper. I like to read and listen to music. I only watch educational stuff on television, other than sports of course. I know my way around a computer pretty well; know what makes them tick and how to fix them and as such, I'm teaching myself website design as a hobby and possible career. Also learning to play the guitar, although right now, I pretty much suck...

Michael -
See that you are a fan of the Dodgers. As a Los Angeles Dodger community leader, I wanted to introduce myself and let you know, with the Dodger magic number down to 3, I am asking members to consider who they would want in the rotation for the playoffs.
Also, who should be in the bullpen and what fielders do you want on the bench. Do you prefer Maddux and Sweeney? What about Troncoso and Hu?
Feel free to drop by with your comments.
