I grew up on a farm near a tiny town west of Hutchinson, Ks. I moved to Lawrence, Ks., in 1986 to attend KU and I still live there with my wife and son.

I started blogging about two years ago on a couple of my own sites. I posted on The Sports Blogger Nation and on the Big Brother Baseball Project before getting this exciting opportunity to join KC Kingdom
