A rare tweet! I couldn't be happier for Davis Schneider and his family. This story from last year is a big reason why. Davis Schneider’s childhood dreams came true with the Blue Jays. An important piece of his improbable story is missing thestar.com/sports/blue-ja…

Bobby McMann’s uniquely long road from undrafted player to the Maple Leafs has been well documented. What’s less known is that throughout all the extra years it took to make the NHL, McMann changed the culture of every team he eventually left behind. thestar.com/sports/leafs/b…

Pictured below is my favourite quote from this feature on Bobby McMann. It says plenty about who he is away from the game. Plenty more here: Bobby McMann took the long road to the Maple Leafs. The teams he played for along the way were better for it thestar.com/sports/leafs/b…

Went to go take one last look at McIlroy's 2025 and somehow ended up reflecting on fighting cancer. But isn't that Rory? Taking us unexpected places and making us feel unexpected things. For Irish Examiner/Irish Examiner Sport irishexaminer.com/sport/golf/ari…

Today is the last day Coco's in Little Italy will be open and people have been lined up all day. A special coffee shop and bakery in Toronto is closing, and the wonderful owners have no choice in the matter. Karon Liu wrote a great tribute to this place. thestar.com/life/food-and-…

Jack McKenzie is a Canadian hockey legend. He was both a high school teacher and Canada's captain at the 1956 Olympics in Cortina, Italy. He crossed paths with many icons in the game. Now 95 years old, the heartbreaking loss still stings 70 years later. thestar.com/sports/olympic…
