Twitterfeed: @kyle11berg

Tweets of wonder: Not sure what to make of this.

What movie would Dino recommend for him?: The 1994 crime sports drama, Above the Rim. The main character, Kyle Lee Watson, is a former basketball star who has fallen on hard times. Yes, this is a basketball movie, but I did enjoy it. It also stars Tupac Shakur, so there’s that.

Interesting nugget o’interest: He was actually high school team mates with incoming Syracuse quarterback, Tommy Devito, for a few seasons. Of course, Kleinberg is a few years older, but they did play on the same team for a few seasons at Don Bosco Prep in New Jersey.
