Mike, a.k.a. "The Miz

Mike was born in Manassas, Va and has been die-hard D.C. sports fan since the age of five, when he attended his first Redskins game (a 56-17 blowout of the Atlanta Falcons in 1991). He loves all of his teams and does everything in his power to get to as many games a humanly possible (and financially possible) each and every season. He's got two tattoos, one Redskins, one Virginia Tech, and can't wait until the day that D.C. can be called a titletown. He thinks that Frank Beamer is the best special teams mind in college football history and Bud Foster can make your head explode with just one glare. Mike is a 2008 alumnus of Virginia Tech and holds bachelor's degree in Political Science. He is currently pursuing his M.Ed. from
