Interview with Matthew

Athletic Experience:

I was more or less the 'Rudy' of my 8th grade football team. Playground all-star. First ballot Mini-Hoops Hall of Famer.

Favorite Sport to Watch?

College basketball barely beats out college football, mostly because of the NCAA tournament. Who doesn't like waking up on a thursday and having basketball on FOUR CHANNELS ALL DAY?

Favorite Sport to Play?

5-on-5 backyard football.

Favorite Sports Moment?

This is too close to call so I'll cop out and just give both answers.

1.Durrell Summers dunking (HARD) over Stanley Robinson at the 2009 Final Four in Detroit. I have never been in a louder building. For a brief moment it seemed like Ford Field was going to collapse on itself.
1A. Keith Nichol's miracle catch/turn/stretch to complete the Hail Mary over Wisconsin in 2011. I have probably watched it over 100 times and will never, ever get tired of it.
