But then details about this guy began to emerge and we quickly realized it was something much, much more than just “special.” This dude was wholly unique. A true one of a kind sensation. His name is Frank Fleming. Hes a Mets, Devils, Dolphins and Nets fan. He HATES NJ Transit. He’s the proud founder of a website called The Sports Ecyclopedia that he’s updated every single day since 2001, despite never updating its appearance in any way shape or form.

Complete with sections about the USFL and independent hockey leagues, The Sports Ecyclopedia doesn’t earn a dime. Frank’s just in it for the love of the game.
