Rich was born into a family of Giants season ticket holders and has been attending games for as long as he can remember. A New Jersey native, he crossed enemy lines for college and attended DeSales University in Center Valley, Pennsylvania. He majored in Sports Communications and minored in trash talking pathetic Eagles fans. He currently works in Downtown Manhattan and resides in Hoboken, New Jersey. During Giants home games he can be found at Giants stadium throwing together a marathon tailgate, and when the GMen are on the road, you can bet he is screaming at the nearest television. He spends his Saturdays watching college football, and his favorite day of the year is the NFL Draft, which he likens to Christmas. Rich considers himself a draft guru, and claims he can tell you where every starter in the NFL played their college ball. He is somewhat obsessed with the draft, the combine and projecting how players will make the transition from college to pro ball, so expect him to be discussing this at length.
