My name is Robert Pinnock I was born in Newark, NJ. I lived in East Orange, NJ for six years when my mother, sisters, and I all moved to Connecticut. The remainder of my childhood was spent in Bridgeport, CT where I learned everything. I learn things like riding my bike, playing sports, talking to girls, etc. My child hood was really fun but It really got fun when I developed a hobby for basketball. I won plenty of trophies in baseball, football, and I even was the 2006 soccer shoot state champion for CT. Although those were big accomplishments basketball out shined them by far.
I started really playing serious in 8th grade for King Kids my first AAU team. Basketball got fun my first game with that team when I scored 20 points. I was so nervous that in practices I would be to scared to score but when the game came around I played like a champ. My coach made me the go to guy. My high school days were great. I played 4 years of varsity basketball for my high school Kolbe Cathedral where I was coached by Chris Smith, Uconn all time leading scorer in points . That's when I decided to go to Nichols College. I hope to gain knowledge that I never knew about computers, in Digital Applications.
My favorite team is the New York Knicks my parents have been fans since I was a kid and I just learned to love them as I got older. Although I am getting frustrated I'm still a die hard fan. The Carmelo Anthony deal was suppose to make them a playoff contender but it looks like it back fired. We only won one playoff game in the last 10 years, and Carmelo Anthony nor Amare Stoudemire has made a difference. With added pieces like Jr Smith and Tyson Chandler the Knicks should be rocking this upcoming season.
