This is my 40th year in the business of professional journalist — 25 years since I made the move to sports writing with The Washington Times.
Over that time, I have had the good fortune of writing and reporting on some historic events, met remarkable people and been recognized by my peers. I’ve managed to parlay this journalism career into sports talk radio, and now podcasting. I’ve had great times, and accomplished things that I am proud of.
But one of the most rewarding things I’ve done over that time is when I took George “The Animal” Steele to a Washington Nationals spring training exhibition game at Space Coast Stadium in Viera.
