Chris is a junior at La Salle majoring in
Communication. He is a co-producer and host of Upon
Further Review. Chris is from West Windsor, New Jersey and
is also involved in WEXP the campus radio station along with the
online streaming webcasts of La Salle Athletics. Though a big
sports fan, he has no real biases towards certain teams in the
area. Other than baseball, Chris focuses most of his sports attention
overseas to sports more obscure sports in America such as Soccer,
Rugby and Handball. Look for most of those sports to make an appearance
on his show this year. Other than that, Chris enjoys the same
things as most college students: music, movies and of course studying
provided there is nothing better to do.

Matt Ficco
Growing up in the City of Brotherly Love, Matt has
a great passion for every Philly sports team and will until the
day he dies. Currently living in Cinnaminson, NJ, Matt has been
and will always be a Philly fan. During his four years, he has been
behind the scenes most of the time, but when given the chance to
talk Philly sports, he jumped for joy. Now as a senior, he is Producer
and Host of SportsTalk
Philadelphia and should be a co-host of the best quiz show ever,
Q&A!
So with that, Matt would like to leave you with some George Carlin,
because Carlin tells it better than he ever would. When cheese get
its picture taken, what does it say? Is a vegetarian permitted to
eat animal crackers? You know an odd feeling? Sitting on the toilet
eating a chocolate candy bar. And done.....

Jeff Landis
I'm a modern man. A man for the millenium. Digital
and smoke free. A diversified multicultural postmodern deconstructionist,
politically, anatomically, and ecologically incorrect. I've been uplinked
and downloaded, I've been inputted and outsourced. I know the upside
of downsizing I know the downside of upgrading. I'm a high tech lo-life.
A cutting-edge, state-of-the-art, bi-coastal multitasker and I can
give you a gigabyte in a nanosecond. I'm new wave but I'm old school
and my inner child is outward bound. I'm a hotwired, heatseaking,
warmhearted cool customer, voice activated and biodegradable. I interface
with my database and my database is in cyberspace, so I'm interactive,
I'm hyperactive, and from time to time I'm radioactive.

and being terrified about the future.
