Major League Baseball’s All Star Game on FOX

I worked with Fox Sports on this piece that played to open the 2024 MLB All-Star Game.  Not only do I love baseball and played as a kid and into high school, this read is always a lot of fun.  They wanted me to really lean into it.  Which I was happy to do.  What a blast.  Hold on, pardner!

VO for the mighty Pittsburgh Steelers, in the style of another giant.

One day about a year ago the Steelers called.  That happens every day, right?

They asked if I’d be interested in voicing some in-stadium content.  Since then I’ve voiced a few productions for them that promote ticket sales for upcoming games.  When they called this year to see if I could voice a draft day promo in the style of the legendary John Facenda it didn’t seem real.  How many voice styles do people know?  Mel Blanc, Harry Kalas (another hero), Don LaFontaine, Paul Frees and a few others?  And John Facenda.  The voice of NFL Films.  “The frozen tundra of Lambau Field…”  Ya know?

This is by NO means an impression.  But his bold, loping, storytelling delivery informed the approach.  It’s an honor.  I can only hope they keep calling.  And thank you Mr. Facenda, for being one of the voices inside my childhood head.

2024 Bike MS Colonial Crossroads

This is year #21 riding in Bike MS: Colonial Crossroads.  I started riding against MS as a way to contribute to the cause when a family friend was diagnosed with MS.  Since then, I’ve lead a team, ridden alone, ridden with my brother Jeff many of those years, and ridden with friends who have joined the cause for a year or two or even just once.  And it’s all been great.

We have a team again this year named after the fundraising ride we do in the fall to benefit the Forward Foundation in Richmond.  (The FF helps single parents in financial crisis).  It’s a different event, but we crossed the streams.  Our team is called Go Forward Cycling.

Click the banner below to sponsor me and feel free to contact me with any questions or if you’d like to help.  I can put you in touch with the organizers.  Thanks for your support!
