Stephen Francis

Stephen's passion for sports started at an early age when he learned to say "baseball." The obsession simply went out of control from there. Once he learned that being a "big leaguer" was not in his destiny, he decided to start talking and writing about it. He started his online writing career covering the TCU Horned Frogs athletic program and was in the press box for several big moments in TCU sports history. He's also covered the Dallas Cowboys, Dallas Mavericks and Dallas Stars. Stephen has a Bachelor of Arts in Radio/TV/Film from the University of North Texas and lives in Fort Worth with his wife and two children. When he's not spending time with them, he can be found watching a game or playing one of his several guitars.
