Imagine for a minute the distant roar of 2.2-liter twin-turbo V6 engine traveling miles from the IMS in every direction. The vibrations grace the ears of all those it passes; for myself, I was probably wrapping up my 200th free throw on the run-down court by the creek at my grandmas house in 1997 when I…
I use fashion in the loose sense here because we’re not talking Giorgio Armani’s new Summer 2015 collection debut. Let’s be honest, we’re not even talking about the sale rack at The Gap. Indy 500 attire takes on a whole new fashion genre I like to call Redneck Couture or Haute de Kentucky. With the…

From my grandmother’s porch, for one fantastic month every year, you can hear the undeniable hum of the IndyCars as they speed around the track. As kids, my uncles…

Props to bodybuilding and everything that it has taught me. So I’m sitting here trying to write this blog post about my whole bodybuilding/life journey these last few years… I don’t even know where to start with this story trying to explain it in a page or two. This isn’t probably the typical blog post…
I like lists and organization. You know what else I like? March. So here are my 10 reasons why March is the best month of the year! Props to each and every one of my favorite things about March. International Pancake Day. Who doesn’t want a free short stack of pancakes brought to you by…
