TERRY BROWN has a strong passion for sports and have been watching, playing, or working in sports most of his life. His strongest passions are golf, college basketball, auto racing, and the NFL. However, if it piques his interest, he will certainly watch most anything, including an America's Cup yacht race, and you will rarely find him without an opinion on any of them. That passion, and perspective served me well the two seasons He spent at WCLS-TV, where he first met Rob. He worked as the color analyst during the 1992 and 1993 high school football and basketball seasons as well as one season as the color analyst for the CBA's Columbus Horizon. He spent 8 years working as a golf professional in Tucson at two of Arizona's finest courses. He was the Head Professional at the Hilton El Conquistador Golf and Tennis Resort, which is home to the Hilton Golf Academy. Prior to that he was an assistant professional at La Paloma Country Club, a Jack Nicklaus Signature Design consistently rated among Golf Digests Top 100 resort courses. In fact, more of you have seen this course than you realize for it was featured in the movie Tin Cup. Contrary to popular opinion, being a golf professional is not all fun and games. But, as he always says...if one has to work, it may as well be at a nice place.
MARK VUCHENICH is a lifelong player, fan, coach, student and worshipper of all things football. American football is OK too, but when your European (Yugoslavia)-born father fits into the 'architects of modern popularity of the game in America' demographic (and is a former 3-year letterman for Ohio University's Div. I program), it is hard not to follow suit. Mark himself has been involved with the sport since his first night in a crib (there are pictures) and recently reaffirmed player status in a rec league. That's 30 years of football (ok, soccer for all the American crowd). Along the way he's played youth, high school (2-year captain, OVAC and Regional all-star selection), spring Cup Travel team (WV Open State Cup Championship 1998), two plus years as a walk on at perennial NCAA Div III powerhouse Bethany College and in countless indoor and recreational leagues. He's also coached his high school alma mater's junior varsity program as well as put on clinics for youth players from time to time. Mostly, Mark is a connoisseur of anything relating to the beautiful game, from legendary EPL match ups to the latest Adidas Predator boots to what might be the trends in haircuts in the next World Cup. Mark has a BA in Communications from Bethany College, Bethany, WV as well as an MA in Global Marketing & Advertising from Emerson College, Boston, MA.
