Facts About Me

Since it's the start of a new year, I thought I would share some facts about myself that you may not know. First, if you read my introduction, you will know that I have Asperger's syndrome. I was diagnosed with this condition when I was ten. I have come a long way since my diagnosis. Second, my top three favorite sports are baseball, hockey, and soccer. I'm an American, so why is football not in my top three? I'm not really a football fan. I never played and I only watch when the Steelers are playing. Other than that, I don't care. Third, I hate reading. I am a blogger and I was a writer for my school newspaper in my senior year of high school. How can I hate reading? Literature is the worst. Fourth, I am a rock music fan. My top three favorite bands are Rush, Van Halen, and Metallica. Fifth, I dislike pie. Many people tell me that I am not American. Actually, I don't like pie because I can't eat it. I have a sensitive gag reflex and pie filling will cause me to react. Sixth, my favorite baseball team is the Pittsburgh Pirates. My other two favorite teams are the Toronto Blue Jays and Kansas City Royals. Seventh, my favorite hockey team is the Pittsburgh Penguins. My other two favorite teams are the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Anaheim Ducks. Eighth, I talk a lot about the city of Toronto, but I am not from Canada. Have I ever been there? Yes I have. I really enjoy that city, as it is clean and everyone is friendly up there. Ninth, I greatly dislike all teams in Philadelphia and all teams in the Baltimore and Washington, D.C. area. Tenth, I have a YouTube channel. My channel is "Tucker Schmidt" and I post sports videos. If you guys check out my YouTube channel, you will notice that most of my videos are from Penguins games. I really enjoy getting to games early to watch warm ups. Since I get to the games early and I enjoy warm ups so much, I decided to record them and put them on YouTube. These are ten facts about myself. I hope you enjoy.
