California Angels
Manager/Owner/President/GM: Rick Byrens
AIM Screen Name: shrsteamer (it’s a long story, but my traditional SOM Football team is the Shreveport Steamer)
Strat-O-Matic Fan Forum Name: byrens
Hometown: Yorba Linda, CA (Orange County). Grew up in Whittier (hometown of Nomar Garciaparra)
Birthdate: 8/19/59
Strat-O-Matic background: 1968 set was my first and I’ve been playing SOM Football since 1972.
Most memorable Strat-O-Matic moment: Having someone turn a table over on top of me after Isaac Curtis retuned his second punt for a TD in the same game. I know, football again... but I find those games more “memorable”.
Favorite Baseball Team: Anaheim Angels
Did You Know? Hollywood manager Dave Siemienski’s lifetime record against me in SOM Football is 4-10. I am also in Vinny’s Live Action Football League, based on ActionPC. Wish I had more time for more leagues! I am married, have two daughters, 6 and 8, and I work in the satellite industry doing sales.
