Who am I and what do I do?

[edit]

In a word?Tired.

In a few more words? I am a professional tabletop role-playing game master who has a few obsessive interests that can be easily channeled into writing overlong biographies on my favorite and least favorite athletes. You may know me from my penchant for writing on some of the, uh, more colorful characters thatMajor League Baseball and theNational Hockey League have to offer. People likeTrevor Bauer,Brad Marchand,Tom Wilson, that whole rogues gallery. Another focus of mine is on athletes, both human and animal, who die during their playing careers, likeTyler Skaggs,Colby Cave, andMedina Spirit.

I am trying to branch out from my comfort zone a little bit and hope that gets reflected in some of my contributions going forward. I am also a fairly prolific GA reviewer, particularly with regards to sports and history (if you have a sports history article, whoa mama!) but I am also interested in learning new things and will pick up anything that seems quirky.
