Big fan of the Sox, Bears, Bulls, Hawks, Augustana, PHS Wildcats, OE girls hoops/boys volleyball, & IWU women’s basketball. BIGGER fan of my family and friends.
Won't lie: It's felt really great to get back into making content around the Bears.

I tell my son Teddy all the time:
You don’t play for me.
You don’t play for your coach.
You don’t get good grades for your teachers.
You set your own standard. You decide who you want to become and you work to close that gap.
THAT’S THE POINT OF YOUTH SPORTS.
Fun isn’t trophies, rankings, TikTok likes, walk up songs.
FUN IS COMPETING.
Failing.
Being embarrassed.
Getting back up.
Working harder.
Winning.
Losing.
Learning.
Closing the gap between who you are and who you want to become.
Youth sports is broken because we lost the plot.
Competing is fun.
Just compete your ass off to become the best version of yourself.
