Eldon “E.J.” Jenson has been around long enough to remember the Miami Dolphins losing in Super Bowl VI, and was so impressed by the resolute attitude of the Dolphins players after that game (“We’re going to come back here, and we’re going to win.”) that he was the happiest kid in the world, or at least the state of Utah, when the Dolphins went undefeated the following year. He spent numerous Sundays as a kid barreling over footstools, chairs, and couches while pretending to be Larry Csonka scoring touchdowns in his parent’s basement.
 
E.J. has worked in state government IT for 20 years, and along with his wife Amy, enjoys fitness, books, and dogs. They both participate in triathlon races, and E.J. completed the Santa Rosa Ironman (140.6 miles) in 2017. 

Writing for PhinManiacs.com is a vastly fulfilling hobby for E.J., and he especially enjoys putting together the quotes and media releases from the team, players, and coaches each year. Wit and sarcasm are not foreign to E.J., and his tweets, memes, and articles are often reflective of that.
