  • Took the Train Downtown

    Meet my co-workers, that’s Mark on the left and Hosea on the right.  Both are reporters and both were jealous when on the Skytrain a cop gave me a rare pin that lights up.  

    I might be the only person here not collecting Olympic pins. 

  • Ep. #12 – What Happened After Our Hockey Win

    Last night our Canadian Men’s hockey team defeated the Swiss, and downtown afterwards here’s what ensued.

  • Today’s Article – In Our Defence

    We’re taking heat in the international press for the Games being “a disorganized Olympics”; I disagree.

    I’m not saying gloss over everything because it’s Canada, but rather because I don’t see it.  

    Executing an event of this magnitude reqires a ridiculous amount of details, logistics, and the like.  Think about the last dinner party you threw and times that by a billion.  

    Some things are going to go awry – how could they not – but if you were to judge these Games based on a smile-o-metre, then it’s a success.

  • Ep. #11 – Chatting with David Langford

    David Langford is the National Sports Editor for Sun Media, and we talked about the Games in the heart of Robson Square.  

    Great work amalgomating it all dude, and have fun at your much deserved party tonight!

  • Today’s Article – We’re Pumped

    Meet some of Canada’s biggest sports journalists today: Steve Buffery, Steve Simmonds and David Langford.

    They’re calmer than me about this whole Olympic experience.  

    For the first time Canada is aggressively going after the podium, and we excel at the new sports – such as ski cross – because we’re early-adopters.  Email me or yell hi when you see me on the street!
