I'm a sports journalism major at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa. Originally from Colorado, I have been following the Arizona Diamondbacks since 2001 and have been hooked ever since. I dressed up as Craig Counsell that year for Halloween (it's not really pertinent to my life, but I just wanted to tell you). I'm really looking forward to working with Venom Strikes because we can make it feel like baseball season all year round. Congratulations to the 2013 WS Champion, Arizona Diamondbacks! Too soon?
