I'm kind of new to Twitter. I'm about one year in, so I'm a little late to the party.

I'm an everything Baltimore fan.

I grew up in Baltimore. And yes, I am a big sports fan, especially when it comes to my local teams.

I never considered a career in broadcasting, not even as a kid.

I am a lefty, though I bat right-handed... When I was a kid I pitched, played first, outfield and shortstop as well. Now it's mainly softball with some friends.

Inside the mind of 'America's Mad Genius' is not necessarily a place you want to visit.

Kids should be naughty and go through that rebellious phase I didn't have.

Train your mind to see the good in everything
