Hey there and welcome to my home on the web! My name is Kevin but I am better known as Tiger_Mad_DA on the Gaming Zone. I am 36 years old, am married and have five wonderful children.

My family and I reside in a suburb town outside of Chicago, Illinois. Chicago is known as the Windy City. Located in the Midwest on the shores of Lake Michigan, Chicago is also home to the Bears Football Team and the Bulls Basketball Team. A fella named Michael Jordan helped put it on the map - LOL! Originally I am from Torrance/Riverside California.

My Spades playing days began in the Zone in 1998. I enjoy computers and I am fascinated with how it all works. I love to try and help solve the problems that people encounter on the Internet and am always willing to lend a hand if I can.

My nic has been the blunt of many jokes on line, so let me explain how I got to be known as Tiger_Mad. When I first started playing spades on the Zone, I was newbie to the game and played a bit wild at the beginning. I could just imagine the rage of my pards at my off the wall playing, so i created the nics "Mad_Spades" and "Madd_Spades" as a joke and used those nics for years. When I was invited to join The Tigers, I had to bring the Mad with me as it had become part of my identity. I do admit to a wild sense of humor and do play spades a little on the wild side but don't let the nic fool you as I am really quite sane!

I enjoy playing the game of Spades only. I like sports with a beer in hand and am a huge NASCAR fan. I detest anyone who cheats, which brings me to how i became a Tiger.I started out in Rated rooms and soon after moved to Ladders on account of all of the rude and not so fair players in Rated. It wasn't long before I formed by own ladders team with the intention of only having honest and fun players.

Then one day Tiger_Lancelot zmed me and asked if I would like to join the Tigers Spades Club. I wasn't certain if I wanted to give up my team and the control of it. But, I visited the Tigers web site and after reading the Mission Statement, I was instantly drawn to the club's philosophy.

I turned my team over to a member and I became a Tiger and brought a couple friends with me. My start with the Tigers was a little rough as I still had a bad attitude from playing in Rated. Fortunately, I was wise enough to know that I had an opportunity to play for and with The Tigers. So many of the members I had met were just terrific and I changed my attitude immediately and decided to put forth whatever positive energy I could to this new club of mine.

My new attitude was recognized and I was eventually invited to be a Den Assistant and part of the leadership. This is truly a great honor to me and I firmly believe in what The Tigers represent and do for the Zone and all its members. Recently, I was promoted Chief of Security for the Club.

If you happen to be visiting my web home now, it is nice meeting you - Peace - hugs and God Bless. Remember A good exercise for the heart is to bend down and help another up.
