Stonie is an Oakland-born — but currently Nashville-swingin’ — sports nut who may only be half Greek but was raised in the Greek Orthodox Church in Oakland. A devout Prince Fan who has attended 78 live shows, ALL of Stonie’s Greece Is the Word columns are posted in purple to honor the Purple Yoda. Fascinated by sports gambling and thrilled that it is finally becoming legal, Stonie breaks down sports and looks to give you an edge on your way to the ticket window.
