Born just outside of Boston but raised in Houston. Mom raised me an Astros fan because she didn't want her son rooting for "Fake Baseball" with the Designated Hitter. Funny how things work out. But I'm too steeped in my Houston fandom to leave now.Currently residing in Chicago, constantly arguing about how the Rockets still would have won the championship in '94 even if Jordan was there (And how they did win when he was there in '95. And no, he wasn't "rusty." I welcome any and all challengers on this argument.)
