College World Series, Buffalo Bills, Anesthesiology and Me

Happy National Residency Match Day to all!

I'm sure you all have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of this day! Excited to find out where all of of your 4th year MD friends would be moving themselves and their families.

OR maybe you haven't, and well, that's just too bad. I have and you're going to continue reading this post to find the explanation to my title.

COLLEGE WORLD SERIES you might ask? And I'd respond, "if you were planning on attending this years CWS, you'll have a place to stay." Sometime in the up coming months I will be moving my family to Omaha, Nebraska where I will be enjoying 1 year of surgery intern happiness.

BUFFALO BILLS? So you've said to yourself, "I know this guy, who plays for the Bills and it would be awesome to go see one or two of his game, but where would I stay?" Your answer, starting in the 2010-11 season; you can stay at my place. In July 2010 I will be starting my residency in anesthesiology in Syracuse, NY. Syracuse, NY is conveniently located 2 hrs east of BUFFALO; Jet blue flies directly to Syracuse from SLC.

ANESTHESIOLOGY? that's "an-aes-the-si-ol-o-gy", which is the medicine concerned with anesthesia and anesthetics or in other words, "the guy who puts you asleep before surgery." That's what I'll be doing as a career.

  1. Congratulations Matt! Good luck and enjoy your stint outside of Utah. Do you see your family back in Utah? Right now I don't see my family back in Utah--at least for the next decade or two.

  3. Congratulations! Your time in med. school has just FLOWN by huh? It's been a real breeze I'm sure.

    Omaha and Syracuse were the first two places on your list, right?

    I've read that Kirk got re-signed by the Bills, so that's good news for you. If you were going there this year you could watch the abomination known as T.O. in his (what I predict) only year in Buffalo, but alas, you'll be in Omaha for that.

    I'm happy you know where you're going, and when I make my annual trip to those places, I will make a point to stop by. We can eat steak and watch the Cornhuskers on the flatscreen.

  4. Congrats Matt! By the way, anyone interested in making the trek to Buffalo for a little football action, you don't need to stay in Syracuse. Come stay in Orchard Park. We love visitors. Mat, we expect to see you at least a couple of times a year when we're both in Western NY.
