MARK PACKER

WBIR, Channel 10

Mark Packer is WBIR's sports director. As a kid, he wanted to win a Heisman Trophy. During his seventh-grade year he played center on the school football team. After that, he decided to talk about the guys who wanted to win a Heisman Trophy.

In high school he had his own cable-access show, "Sports Update with Mark Packer." He's not on cable-access anymore. Other than that, things are pretty much the same.

Runners-up: Rick Russo, WVLT, Channel 8 and Jim Wogan, WATE, Channel 6
