Bob graduated with a Business Degree from Northeastern University in 1981. A few years later, while working as an accountant for Parker Brothers, he became inspired to write a sports trivia book, especially after the tremendous success of Trivial Pursuit. Over the last 15 years Bob has diligently pursued his dream of capturing the vast history of every player and every game of the New England Patriots.

Bob has been a guest on numerous local and national radio programs including Mike & Mike in the Morning on ESPN Radio.
