About Maurizio »

I am a huge sports fan, and avid follower of my hometown teams being from the Toronto area.

My favourite sports team is the Toronto Maple Leafs, however i have begun to follow Toronto FC with a great passion and interest.
Sports, simply put, is my life.

"I'm tired of hearing about money, money, money, money, money. I just want to play the game, drink Pepsi, wear Reebok." ~ Shaq

    Hey Maurizio,

    As Pete kindly pointed out, I am the Maple Leafs community leader here on the website. I'd like to take this time to welcome you to Bleacher Report. We are always on the lookout for fresh, talented writers to help out in the Maple Leafs section of the website, and by the looks of your first couple articles, I think you'll be a solid addition.

    As mentioned, I am the Maple Leafs CL, and am your soundboard for your time here. If you ever need anything at all, feel free to get in touch on my bulletin board, or at the email points listed om my profile.

    Once again, welcome.
