When he\u2019s not watching soccer or at work, the Colorado transplant enjoys skiing and hiking all over the state. The LA Kings will always be his first sports love, though MLS didn\u2019t exist at the time. Once called the Shakespeare of LWOS, he covers the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsoccer.com\/category\/galaxy\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">LA Galaxy<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsoccer.com\/category\/rapids\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Colorado Rapids<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsoccer.com\/category\/usl\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Saint Louis FC<\/a>.

He was born and raised in Northern California, hence his love for Bay Area teams. He currently resides in the KC Suburbs with his incredible wife and energetic puppy. Outside of sports and writing, he loves a good stout and nature, whether that is hiking, camping, canoeing, birding, or some activity with all four.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"2vMVZPQmR3Zub7V42GdYxw\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1172678577\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'2vMVZPQmR3Zub7V42GdYxw',sig:'E8sF7b8uZi--fnjjgblqnASdU5tMeirJ0Obv8HOR_hs=',w:'594px',h:'392px',items:'1172678577',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PODCAST &#8211; What&#8217;s up Internet?
