Mike Casella

I'm a teacher in NJ (love teaching and working with young people). I have 3 children; proud of them all. Two girls, both adopted from China, and a son. Attended Florida and Rutgers (BS '90). Big fans of both (although I left my heart in Gainesville.) Major college football fan. Golfer and caddy (weekends and summer time). Love the game. Yankee fan by birth, but I follow all the major sports. Pretty involved with fantasy sports. Used to write a college football newsletter.I Drink Diet Coke, read Faulkner, and relate well to Lester Burnham. Love music especially electronic/down tempo music. Check out a group called Blue Six. The women pictured are Lisa Shaw, Imogen Heap, and Samantha James. All amazing singers. Samantha is probably the best talent I've heard in years. Grateful for the internet and blogging. Thanks to all visitors for reading and supporting. Look forward to meeting many new friends and fellow sports fans.

What I just finished watching for the last four hours, stretches the limits of sports credulity and perhaps will never again be seen again in my lifetime. I thought I had seen almost it all. But the spectacle put on by Tiger Woods in today's third round of the U.S. Open defies my limited… Read

Fortunate Son
RUGator's Blog :: RUGator :: 22 days ago :: 173 views

I'm not shy about about telling people what I do. I'm a teacher. I came to to this place after much struggle, heartache, and soul-searching. And here I was today, the last full day of school (we'll have early dismissal days on Mon., Tue., and Wed., of next week) with my eighth graders,… Read
