About the Author: Eric Yip

Eric is a 3rd year Communications student at SFU. He listens to everything that is out there as long as it sounds good (don't believe it? check out his ipod). He can play the piano, drums and is learning the guitar. He's a huge sports fan and can talk to anyone about any sports out there, even cricket! Sadly, he watches more sports than he plays but he does play hockey and tennis pretty well. He hopes all his sports knowledge comes in handy one day as he wishes to be a sports broadcaster in the future.
