Dallas McLaughlin
Dallas is a lifelong Padres fan and it should come as no surprise he
also loves to cry - a lot. Dallas was in the stands for Tony Gwynn's
last game as a starter, Trevor Hoffman's 500th Save, Ricky Henderson
breaking the all-time Runs record and when Ruben Rivera was overrated.
Dallas has written for The Aquabats! Super Show!, Yo! Gabba Gabba,
FoxRox and So Say We All. He got his sports writing start on a small
blog called The Sports Minute which turned into The Kept Faith and
you've probably never heard of either. You can follow him on Twitter
