Introduction I grew up in Philadelphia, and was as passionate a Philly sports fan as there was, until I was hired by WIP raido. Then I became a jaded SOB, which gave me the perfect demeanor for a job as a sports writer. And just because I cover hockey, it doesn't mean I'm a complete and total puckhead. This blog will primarily be about the Flyers and the NHL, but don't be surprised if I weigh in on other sports subjects too. I also am a contributor to Sports Illustrated, and can occasionally be heard spinning my hockey rhetoric on the radio both at WIP 610 AM and ESPN 950 AM. I am a graduate of St. Joseph's Prep High School (1991) and attended both American University and St. Joseph's University for College. I live in Springfield, PA with my better half Sarah, my three children Anthony Jr. (15), Amelia (11) and Andrew (9), Sarah's two children Ethan (9) and Allyson (7) an annoying cat (Danni) and a new beagle puppy (Ringo). Yes, hockey keeps me sane.
Favorite Movies Goodfellas, The Usual Suspects, Pulp Fiction, Dr. Strangelove, The Great Escape, No Country For Old Men, The Deer Hunter, The original Star Wars trilogy (the second one sucked).
Favorite Music Barenaked Ladies, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Led Zeppelin, U2, Billy Joel, Counting Crows, CSN&Y, Weezer, Broadway (did I just admit that out loud?)
