How It Got Started

June 2004 marked the most important inflection point in my life. I attended my first Blue Jays game. They lost but I fell in love for the first time. I threw myself into reading and knowing everything about the game, knowing everything about the game. This blog is a step on what I hope will be a journey towards leaving a lasting impact on the game I love. Whilst at it, I hope to also share interesting inisghts on other sports like hockey or soccer. Here's to hoping that you will join me on the journey.
