Jackknife

The man who started it all. A former public address announcer for the William Paterson University ice hockey team, Rangers' staff-writer for Elite Sports NY, and Stats Analyst for ESPN, JackKnife is one of the most passionate sports fans you'll ever meet. When the global pandemic forced Jack to leave ESPN, that itch for a sports media career never left him, which led to him teaming up with his friends to create Nerds Talking Sports.

Being a fan of the New York Rangers, Yankees, Jets, Knicks, and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, he's experienced the euphoria of their successes and the anguish of their defeats, mostly the ladder. He's not always aware of how loud he talks, but that's how into sports he gets. Jack's passion radiates into his work whether it's a blog or an episode of NTS. He's the type of guy you would love to sit down and watch a game with while he analyzes plays and scarfs down pizza, buffalo wings, and pork roll.

Other interests of Jack's include classic rock and heavy metal, movies, TV shows, comics, and American history. You'll be able to tell because when he's on a roll, he'll probably bring up at least one of those things for an analogy. Is that weird? Kind of, but that's just how Jack's mind works. You might not agree with everything Jack says, but after seeing his content, you'll come out understanding point of view.
