My Hope For The 2018 Blue Jays

November 23, 2017

The team, the management, even the uniform has changed since I first became a Toronto Blue Jays fan. I’ve changed too, from an awkward half developed teenager, to an awkward fully-grown adult. In the beginning days of my fandom when I was still living at home, I would cover every inch of the wall in … More My Hope For The 2018 Blue Jays

Stroman eager and ready to go for 2017

January 22, 2017

Energy. Marcus Stroman has a lot of it. Talking about the start of next season with him is a little like watching a race horse waiting to sprint out of the gates and start running. It’s still months before baseball returns to the Rogers Centre, but Stroman is already prepared to go out and take … More Stroman eager and ready to go for 2017

Jays Pitcher Marcus Stroman visits Ryerson University

November 23, 2016

Marcus Stroman is a lot more than a Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher. If you have the assumption that in the offseason baseball players sit around, eat, and fly to expensive places to lie on the beach, Stroman doesn’t fit into that category. He came to talk to a Ryerson marketing class this week about … More Jays Pitcher Marcus Stroman visits Ryerson University

Tears from a Blue Jays Fan

October 25, 2016

I want to take my Blue Jays post season hat and my half crushed cookie that says “ALCS” on it and burn it in a nice little bonfire in my grandparent’s backyard.

Excitement for 2016 Blue Jays felt throughout the city

August 30, 2016

It’s hard to spot an empty seat at the Rogers Centre. The blue rows are all filled with blue clad people. It doesn’t matter that it feels like 40 degrees out. Warm beer and hotdogs cooked twice-once by the staff and once by the sun-must be the new preferred taste. Fans aren’t scared off by … More Excitement for 2016 Blue Jays felt throughout the city

Bob Elliott Is Spreading The Game Of Baseball

February 18, 2016

Bob Elliott is my mentor. I guess he’s kind of like the wise old owl, and I’m the wide eyed baby owl. Except we’re not owls, we’re people. He is 46 years older than me, with blue eyes and a furry grey mustache. I’ve only met him in person a handful of times, most of … More Bob Elliott Is Spreading The Game Of Baseball

Blue Jays Pitcher Marcus Stroman Scared Of Bugs, Thankfully Not Baseballs

January 22, 2016

I scarfed down an entire chocolate bar the night before I went to go interview Marcus Stroman, Dalton Pompey, and Aaron Sanchez. I eagerly shoved the chocolate down my throat. In the comfort of my room I was unashamed to disclose my piggish tendencies. The perfect squares of dark chocolate filled with marzipan were gone … More Blue Jays Pitcher Marcus Stroman Scared Of Bugs, Thankfully Not Baseballs

Blue Jays Pitcher Aaron Sanchez Feeds Off Marcus Stroman And Gains 25 Pounds

January 21, 2016

The last time I interviewed Aaron Sanchez I was in the dark confines of my basement wearing teddy bear pajamas. Sanchez was still playing in the Blue Jays farm system for the Buffalo Bison’s, and I was still trying to get a hang of the whole interview thing. It was over the phone- thank … More Blue Jays Pitcher Aaron Sanchez Feeds Off Marcus Stroman And Gains 25 Pounds
