David Folk Thomas has often fantasized about playing professional sports. While that dream never quite materialized, the New York native likes to get as close to the action as possible. Whether working the Super Bowl, World Series, NBA Finals and Wimbledon for NBC Sports, or doing TV play-by-play for high school sports teams in Aspen, Colorado, Thomas has been there and done that.
