The Yeomen football team look to take advantage of their two week rest to gain a conference victory over the Big Red of Denison.

How did you get started in broadcasting?
I spent years as a child honing my skills as a sports dork. The broadcast booth seemed the natural place to go after Jeremy Goldson's departure last year.

What's the craziest thing that has happened to you in the booth?
When I mention that my colorman Steve Manthe is losing his hair pigment things get pretty hectic.

What was your best call?
Last Fall I predicted that Wittenberg would take it up the middle for a thirty yard rushing touchdown and they did.

How do you guys talk for the full duration of the game?
It's an art to keep banter going. Normally I just do play-by-play and rely on my colormen.

Have you ever had a major slip-up?
No slip-up is that major because no one's listening.

And how does that feel?
It doesn't matter to me. I do it for my own enjoyment.

What's the greatest perk?
Free pizza at half-time.

Do you have a favorite football team and player?
The New York Giants. As for my favorite player, it would have to be Jason Seahorn as he is the obvious idol of all white athletes.

How's Oberlin doing this year?
About as well as my 87 year-old Grandmother.

But seriously, what are the team's upsides?
They play well in the first half because they've got talent. However, due to lack of sheer numbers, they tire easily.

Who is your favorite Oberlin athlete?
Reynard Akuffo in pick-up basketball and Sony playstation.
