Expertise
I feel that I am an honest expert in Minnesota Vikings memorabilia, some history and everything present. My website at www.vikingsfantic69.com celebrates my deep purple passion for my love for the Minnesota Vikings.

Experience
My experience comes from being a Vikings Fan all my life. I was voted Super Collector of the month for the month of November 2001 in Beckett Football Card Monthly for my extensive Vikings collection.

Organizations
I am a Fantasy Football League Commissioner and player in various leagues. I have won 5 titles since 2000. I am presently working on an offseason Madden football league for Playstation 2.

Publications
I wrote briefly for HardCore football (until it folded). I was a featured site rater at vik-fan.com. I also did interviews that were published on football.com. I presently write for the PurplePride.org website and do fantasy football writing for FantasyInsights.com on the Vikings. I have also created my own website at www.vikingsfanatic69.com.
