About Joe »

I was born in Cornwall, Ontario where i currently live. I have been playing hockey since a young age but recently, I have gotten more and more interesting in the world of drifting. For anyone who dosen't know what drift is, I have written five articles to date about it in general. Going from the history of the sport, to the cars used to the drifters and even techniques; check it out on my profile! My girlfriend and I have been going out for two years now.One day I hope to join the Canadian Forces so as to be able to serve my country as a aircraft techician. Anything else you want to know? I have been very absent of Bleacher Report these last couple of months but now that things are back to normal I plan on writing again very soon so check it out in the weeks to come.

Hey Joe,

I'm on vacation right now and not checking my bulletin board very frequently. Would you mind emailing your inquiry about the drifting page to our Community Coordinator, who can further assist you?

Dave will be passing the email along to me but that way I can make sure to get to it when I return next week. Just don't want to lose your correspondence in the shuffle.

Dave can be reached at davemorrison@bleacherreport.com. Thanks so much Joe!

Take a look at my first NHL article which is not solely concentrated on the Montreal Canadiens. Please make sure to comment. Thanks!

Hi Joe! I have written my second article! Just finished writing about last night's game between the Habs and the Wild. As you said I tried to weigh out both sides of the games and not only concentrate on bringing the good aspects of the habs...that's not my point. It is an analysis. If you feel that there is something I can change, do let me know.

Joe—it would be my pleasure to create a Professional Drifting page on Bleacher Report.

Would you mind sending me a list of the teams in D1 Grand Prix? And perhaps a few of the major drivers (and what teams they race for)?

As long as we're going to do it, we should do it properly. Good thinking!

Hey Joel,

I just wanted to let you know that Bleacher Report has launched out of beta with an updated look and feel and some great new features. Check out the "Game On" link in the header to find out more.

Next week we'll be launching the site to the world with some public announcements—and it'd be great to get a contribution from you between now and Tuesday to make Bleacher Report's launch a success.

Let me know if you need any help with ideas or have questions. Have a great weekend Joel!
