==Early life==
Stabile was born on December 29th, 1977 in Denton, Texas to parents Gloria and Robert Stabile. He made many friends in Texas and lived in Denton for most of his life. He went to Denton High School and was a baseball player and a basketball player at the school. During his time living in Denton, he had a rough life, and was arrested 12 times on small charges in Tarrant and Denton Counties. BT had multiple relationships with women outside of his family up until he met his future wife Heather. BT would end up having three children from these relationships, and had considered getting abortions for these children, but he instead decided not to, wanting these children to grow up with a healthy life and with caring parents.
Stabile then moved to Jacksonville with Heather and his children in the early 2000s. Having a rough time Stabile and his family found refuge with an old friend of his named Darris Matthews who would help the family get back up on their feet. Stabile would soon get involved in announcing for baseball games, starting with Little League games before moving up to local games and by 2007 would become the sports reporter for WJXX in Jacksonville.
==Career==
His time at WJXX would eventually get him noticed by ESPN, who was looking for a new reporter for their baseball games. Stabile would take the gig in 2012, and would become one of the more popular reporters due to his colorful language and his knowledge about the sport. Following his reporting on the 2015 MLB playoffs, Stabile would get promoted by ESPN to become one of the reporters for ESPN's SportsCenter show, where he would constantly delve into rants about the game and who he thought were the best players. Such colorful language made Stabile a household name, and brought him onto many other TV Shows, and his own short-lived live on-air talk show called The Oddkast Show which ran on WBC from 2018-2020. Besides his career on ESPN, Stabile also runs a podcast called The Oddkast Podcast where callers can call into his show to discuss baseball and their issues with the sport.
