Philadelphia Eagles, Golf, Michael Jordan, Sport Card Hobby, Jeeps, Family and Friends

      I am a big fan of the Philadelphia Eagles. I listen to podcasts, analyze every game, collect memorabilia, and just enjoy watching the boys play as a group.  My spirit animal would be an American Bald Eagle due to the freedom involved flying in the sky.  Also they are very majestic and graceful when flying around, but when the eagle attacks its prey, Game Over.  Just like Mr. Jalen Hurts and my Philadelphia Eagles.

      I enjoy everything there is to do with the game of Golf.  Playing, Coaching, Teaching, Spending time with friends or family,  does not matter as long as I'm on the golf course.

     My idol growing up as a child would have to be Michael Jordan.  The way he played the game of basketball was truly remarkable.  I have tons of sports memorabilia from his playing days along with some original Space Jam movie memorabilia.  I also have his Wheaties cereal box from the early 90's unopened.

     I also enjoy collecting/trading/selling sports cards.  Anything to do with Football and Basketball.  I never really got hooked on Baseball or Hockey.  

     I currently drive a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited.  Absolutely love the thing.  I've had two prior Jeeps.  A bulldozer 1996 Jeep Cherokee and a Street Brawler 2011 Jeep Liberty Jet Edition.  Jeep lover for life.

    Most importantly to me are my Friends and Family.  I am happy to say that I have a great support system and fun memories!
