I am a simple Wisconsin man: I love beer and sports. I decided to create FlurrySports because I was sick of the politics and non-stories that the fat cat corporations put out. When you see football articles from me, just know that I combine my knowledge from playing, coaching, athletic training, and sports management/economic courses to give you a unique, but I feel well-rounded point of view. I am always down to talk about anything, so follow me on Twitter @FantasyFlurry if you decide you want more of me!

That’s right! Tell your mom the FlurrySports Podcast is back after an admittedly too long, but likely deserved, hiatus! However, we are flipping things upside down and giving you much, much more than the weekly show you remember: Listen to “FlurrySports Podcast 2.0” on Spreaker. We are starting this off with four shows per week! Monday: The FlurrySports PodcastWednesday: Meet Our GuestThursday: Lombardi SweepFriday: Burnt Rubber Racing See you Monday.
