Born into a sports family, Joey realized at an early age that football wasn't just a game, but a way of life. When in the Navy, his shipmates soon found out Saturday mornings weren't for sleeping, as his yells for Penn State frequently roused them. Having the chance to cover them has literally been a dream come true.
