Michael's Bio

I don't care about much except for the New York Rangers. I bleed Ranger blue, and I probably hate your team.

However, I do also have a lot to say about politics. If you're interested, check out my blog below or go straight to http://acitizensresistance.blogspot.com/

I'm back on hockey!

Please take a look at my latest article documenting Tim Thomas' rise from nothing to become one of the NHL's premier goaltenders when you get a free moment.

Thanks,
Patrick

It's a little late but I thought I'd add my two cents regarding Joe Sakic's retirement. Please feel free to take a gander when you get a spare moment. Thanks.

Hi there,

I have recently started my own project to rank the top 100 hockey players off all-time and just recently posted players 1-10. I would love to hear what you think about my list or for you to even post your own list in the comments section. Please, give it a read!

Hi , did you see the NY sports page on BR? it is not doing to well. it only has 4 fans, i think we should make it better and take the page under are wing, its time to for us to represent NY and show the world what this great place is all about. I asked Angel Navedo to be the community leader, we will see what he says. Are you in ?

Thanks for understanding, Michael. I did notice that most of your pieces were Rangers-based...and were quite good. I also do definitely dig your political content; I'm just sorry we can't be a better home for it. Keep up the good work on both fronts, and I'll look forward to being in touch.

Thanks again,

RA

Michael,

A quick note here to let you know that I've deleted the non-sports related articles in your profile. B/R is a sport-only network, and it's important that we keep our content as focused as possible. Please let me know if you have any questions, and keep the sports-based work coming when you can.

Best,

Ryan Alberti
