About the Author
By the age of ten I was already a budding sports fanatic who was filling his school news books with game reports instead of current events. I have been writing professionally about sports and sports history since graduating from Trent University in 1985.I was (still am) the oldest of three boys in a sports-loving family from Toronto. Football was my best sport, and I was a pretty good house-league hockey player, but I was horrible at baseball. Still, when the Blue Jays were born in 1977, I quickly became a huge fan. I worked on the Blue Jays ground crew from 1981 to 1985 and my family still has season's tickets.I have also been a writer/producer with CBC Radio Sports and TSN SportsRadio. In the fall of 2006, I appeared as a "Hockey Philosopher" in the CBC series Hockey: A People's History. I also appeared in Vikings on Ice about the Winnipeg Falcons in the CBC Olympians series in 2000 and guested with Ron MacLean during the second-period intermission of the Rogers Hometown Hockey broadcast from Owen Sound on January 4, 2015.
