Why I am writing this blog

Hello

My name is Jamie Neugebauer and I am the media creator, play-by-play guy and general 'get in the way and sometimes give opinions, whether or not they are asked for' person for both the Toronto Patriots and North York Rangers of the Tier II Junior 'A' Ontario Junior Hockey League's South Division.

Does this make me an expert on anything really? You be the judge. But I watched a ton of hockey this past season, was involved with two great groups of kids and staffs, and was fortunate enough to be on hand for four playoff rounds, a regional championship and a national championship appearance. So needless to say, I have a lot of thoughts from the year, and the fact that this blog will stay 100% positive is no sweat off my brow, because a vast, vast majority of the 2013-14 season was positive and, as such, so is the content locked within my mind.

So with that said, I know that nobody wants to see me drone on forever (or maybe some one does, since I've heard that a few people don't mute me on my fasthockey broadcasts), so I'll keep posts to the point.

But please give the Patriots and Rangers a follow on twitter @patriotsjr and @OJHLRangers, check out their websites, Pats: http://bit.ly/1p5p4kX, Rangers: http://bit.ly/1hGXFPq, and find them on facebook, and we'll all get along.

First real post will come out later today, so stay tuned!
