Biography
As a kid I loved watching the local sports teams. I can remember the first Phillies Game I watched in person was when Mike Schmidt ran out to play 3rd base with a wig on. I didn’t get it at the time, all I knew is that I was watching a legend, in a not-so legendary stadium. Then the first Eagles Game I went to in person was against the Washington Redskins. The Eagles WR Calvin Williams caught a game-winning TD pass from QB Randall Cunningham. I never heard a place so loud. My first Sixers game, well that’s when the Chuck Wagon used to roam the Spectrum floor boards. And the Flyers, I remember going early to watch pregame warmups and Washington Capitals defenseman Al Iafrate slapped a shot into the stands the nailed a spectator and bloodied their lip! That was well before nets were installed behind the goals. Those were the legendary days of Rick Tocchet and Tim Kerr.
Since then, I turned this love of sports into a hobby. I was first on the air as a teenager and into my young 20’s on a local NJ radio station. Then I turned that into website development, writing, and eventually into podcasting where I started 4th & Go, a Philly “4 for 4” Plus More show.
Today, I contribute regularly for Win Daily Sports at www.windailysports.com. I also provide content for Heat Ratio Sports at their YouTube Channel. You can also hear me on Sirius Radio every Sunday night from 7 to 9 pm (Channel 87).
Finally, you may ask why Bell Ringer Sports? It’s so ironic that I, Dave Gloeckner, fell in love with the city that has the most famous bell as a monument. My heritage is from Germany and in that country a Gloeckner (Glöckner) is a well-known figure in their church. In fact, it is the little boy/girl that runs up the tower to ring the bell. Can’t make this stuff up. Glöckner – Wikipedia
