As a lifelong Capital Region sports fan who has just so happened to be in radio for most of my professional life the chance to “join the Team” pun intended was the kind of offer I’ve been dreaming of. Growing up a Yankees, Knicks and Raiders fan(a punishment I share with my beautiful daughter Ella) I’ve felt the pain and success that comes with diehard fandom. Luckily for me my friends that love the Giants have adopted me so I have a reason to watch football after the Raiders have been eliminated EARLY every season for the last 10 plus years. I’m excited to talk sports and enjoy multiple happy hours with all the sports fans of the Cap Region…even the Red Sox fans.

NFL Players Busy This Off Season But Not As Busy As The Police
I've noticed that every since talks have broken down and the clubs aren’t allowed to contact or punish the players it has been like the wild west! It seems like every player is getting busted.
Here’s a list of the ones that come to mind:
Japan Tsunami Victims Flee On Foot (Video)
This is truly amazing! It's a amateur video so the quality is not the best but the fact that theses people were here then gone only seconds later. A lot of the videos of the tsunami that hit Japan a month ago have been shocking, but there's a new one on YouTube that's even crazier because it actually shows villagers in Iwaki City screaming while they watch people try to outrun it ON FOOT...

Levack Rant- More Red Sox Abuse
Today starts the first series of Yankees and Red Sox for the 2011 season. The age old tradition of 2 of the games biggest franchises facing off. This year the Red Sox came into the season as favorites to win it all and so far have won NOTHING, ZIP, NADA. So you can expect a huge effort against the Yankees and abuse from me.
