Canada's other team is 2 games over .500 with 6 wins in their last 7 games. Thursdays win was easily their best of the season so far, defeating a top contender while on the road! For good luck (superstition) I wore my 30th anniversary RJ Barrett 'City Edition' armour during the game. #WeTheNorth 🏀🍁

These words from Scott Galloway really resonated with me this morning when i read them:
- Get out of the house. Action absorbs anxiety
- Take risks and be willing to feel like an imposter
- Don't let rejection stop you
- Be kind. (I'll add here: Be respectful of others, always.)

About last night... That #WorldSeries game was one for the ages. 18 innings is equal to 2 games. An entertaining game but a painful loss for #BlueJays fans. Many new records set. If history can teach us anything, the 2018 Boston Red Sox might have something to say about comebacks & winning titles!
