I have been an A's fan my whole life, though I also like the Rockies, Nationals, Cardinals and Mariners. I also support the Green Bay Packers and the LA Lakers. Because I live in Europe, I also ended up supporting a soccer team; in my case, Manchester United.
In 2010 I went to New York and caught a Yankees game, and last year I visited San Francisco and saw the A's take on the Red Sox.
I wrote an A's fan site about a year ago, but deleted it after a few months, though it was an interesting excursion. I enjoy playing all types of sports, reading and doing architectural drawings.
My favorite A's players are Coco Crisp, Jemile Weeks and Kurt Suzuki, but my favorite all-time player is Eric Chavez. From the old A's teams, I like Tim Hudson, Barry Zito, Mark Mulder, Nick Swisher and Andrew Bailey.
My favorite football player is Aaron Rodgers, and my favorite basketball player is Kobe Bryant.
