Danny Abriano
I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. My love for the Mets was passed down by my Grandfather. He was a die-hard Brooklyn Dodgers fan who adopted the Mets in '62. I'm a graduate of St. John's University, where I majored in English and minored in Philosophy. Aside from my passion for writing, I'm a drummer (since I was 3) and a pianist. I'm a Beatles fanatic, into politics, and also root for the football Giants, NY Rangers, and Knicks. I can be found on Twitter @D_Abriano. My personal blog about the Mets can be found here: http://rationalmetsmusings.blogspot.com
