Tim,

I thought you might like this piece. It’s a personal look back at the Florida Marlins incredibly shocking upset of the New York Yankees in the 2003 World Series.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks,

Hi Tim
I know it's not exactly the kind of work Leroy Watson and Dr. Giles were looking to inspire through the new article tag "Sports and STEM, but as always I took my own road. Hope you enjoy.

Had to get back to what I enjoy most, humor. This one is a little acidic as well.
It's a Patriots call to arms.

I collaborated in a series prompted by Dann Khan. It’s an interesting theme and intent.

Greetings fellow Habs community member,

The playoffs are starting in just two days, and while we are all gearing up with our lucky jerseys and our favourite beers (for those who are legally old enough), our beloved Canadiens are getting ready to make the most of the new chance that has been given to them with this playoff ticket.

Exciting times, exciting times.

Bleacher has always been a place of gathering and debating for us Hockey fans. This time again, we will take the playoffs and our views in our own writings, with a series of articles in partnership with the Boston Bruins community (details in the following link).

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/155874-a-call-to-arms-for-bruins-and-habs-writers

So please come in and be part of it, to add to our already exciting playoffs atmosphere!

Comments, suggestions and ideas are more than welcomed on the Community Leaders’ boards. Tell us what you think, what you want to add and such!

Happy playoffs and GO HABS GO!
