A failed high school pitcher, Nick discovered that he has a higher aptitude for analyzing and writing about sports than he does playing them. To his friends, he is better known as "The Commish." When he's not organizing a fantasy league, placing a bet, or writing an article, he's probably nose-deep in a book--further illustrating the point that his niche in this world is as a nerd rather than an athlete.
