In this Conversation I catch up with a subject from my sports writing days nearly 30 years ago, Andrew Good. During our time together we chat about Andrew's early life as both a fan and a ballplayer on through his time as a professional, including three stints in the Majors with the Arizona Diamondbacks and Detroit Tigers.

I chronicle Event No. 30 of the #aroundtheworldin80sportingevents project in a "24"-esque format.

This week's #FanTeaser solution takes us back into the movie theater 39 years ago.

This week's #FanTeaser. Who's taking this possible game-winning shot?

Our guest in Conversations this week is Detroit-area broadcaster, Neal Ruhl. Neal discussing his life as a sports fan, calling OU men's basketball games, Detroit City FC soccer, and his weekday gig on Woodward Sports Network's "Big D Energy" show.

This week's #FanTeaser solution harkens back to "The Game" from 30 years ago when Michigan running back Tshimanga Biakabutuka ran wild against the Buckeyes' defense.

The Buckeyes had a tough time tackling the fella with the ball on this day. Who is the subject of this week's #FanTeaser? Extra bragging rights for correct spelling:-)

This episode of Conversations with Sports Fans features author Will Bardenwerper whose most-recent book, "Homestand: Small Town Baseball and the Fight for the Soul of America," intersects nicely with my audience's interests.

Event No. 29 of the #aroundtheworldin80sportingevents project took me back to my home state of Indiana for a Notre Dame-USC football game.

This week's #FanTeaser wasn't terribly mysterious, yet we wonder how many folks knew this was Women's No. 1 Golfer Jeeno Thitikul?

No cropped photo = No problem for this week's #FanTeaser, right?

On the day of the CFL's 112th Grey Cup, it seemed fitting to take the #FanTeaser north of the border. Did you have Doug Flutie as the CFL's GOAT? Many did and do.

Event No. 28 of the #aroundtheworldin80sportingevents project took me to Toronto's Scotiabank Arena for the Maple Leafs-Canadiens' NHL season-opener.

The GOAT? He might be, eh? Just to review, The Fan Teaser was the creation of former Ann Arbor News Sports Editor Geoff Larcom. Longtime friend and fellow Ann Arbor News alum, Pat Schutte, took it to heights previously unknown. We aim to keep it alive here at The Sports Fan Project. The cropped photo and the accompanying clue give you an idea as to who or what the image is of.

I go into the wayback machine for this Conversation with guest Coach Ben Braun. I was The Eastern Echo's men's basketball beat writer for Coach's first two full seasons at the helm. We hadn't spoken but a few words since. Spoiler: We make up for lost time during this episode.

The #FanTeaser this week was the pride of Lenoir-Rhyne College and current University of Tennessee Volunteers men's basketball coach, Rick Barnes.

Who is this perennial Top 25 coach? #FanTeaser

My guest in this episode is NHL and Canadian hockey historian, Liam Maguire. He knows his stuff!

Event No. 27 of the #aroundtheworldin80sportingevents project took me to Toronto for the Hockey Hall of Fame. Here are my reflections of this visit.

It's wild how this wound up as this week's #FanTeaser, right? You saw this one coming at you like a Mitch Williams heater, correct? It seemed only fitting with the Toronto Blue Jays back in Ontario and an opportunity to claim their first World Series Championship since 1993, that's we'd feature Joe Carter - who's still not paying for a meal in Toronto 32 years later, we're sure - and his dramatic Series walk off home run in the bottom of the ninth off Williams, the Philadelphia Phillies' closer.
