This probably something I should keep quiet about lol !! . I used to be a Michigan fan until I move to Orlando which was around about 24 years of age . I met my better half a year later who came From Youngstown . The toughest time was when Michigan and Ohio state would play . I learned after a couple years who was a bigger Ohio state fan . Now I watch basketball 🏀 🤣 . Orlando Magic basketball lol!!😎

So you have only lived in Orlando for four years? Which part of Youngstown?

I was born in Michigan, Grand Rapids but raised in Ohio and graduated from Ohio State University as well as my wife. I’ve a lot of family still there and visit for weddings and such. They’ve given me plenty of flack over the years, I can handle it

Actually went to Indianapolis, Jacksonville, Bethel CT, Syracuse then Ohio where I started 6th grade and a year later my parents got divorced and here we stayed and like you spent a few years in Florida. I was there about half as long as you have been. 😉
 
I avoided every coral sale thank goodness. There were so many really good deals out there, I just had to ignore the internet last night. I could've easily spent the family funds
Same here. Have to stay within a budget. And all that drooling 🤤 makes my wife uncomfortable. 😋
