Excited and honored to share that my column on David Krejci's legacy with the Bruins took home first place for Sports Story at the 2024 @NENPA Awards. Beyond grateful for getting to do what I do.

An identity of snarl and size has been woven into the fabric that makes up the Bruins sweater. David Krejci was cut from a different cloth. On Krejci — whose cool demeanor was matched only by the ice in his veins when the lights shined the brightest. boston.com/sports/boston-…

Story time: the power of an old tee and a fungo bat. Every year, MLB teams do a ton of charity work and community outreach. One of my favorite events has always been the “favorite things” event, which I was always happy to take part in if we were there for it.

When you are rocked by the death of a great friend, you cherish all that he brought to your world. Jeff Babineau had a deep soul, uncanny wit, and a passion for writing about golf. Today in "Power Fades." powerfades.com @Golfweek @PGATOURComms @GWAA1946

Sad news on the sudden passing of my good friend, classmate and teammate Jeff (Babs) Babineau. Like Arnie, Babs was a giant in the golf community. A humble dude, gifted journalist, always fun to be around. My sincere condolences to wife Jane and family.

@RichLernerGC This is crushing. Babs was the best. He got his start @capecodtimes helping with coverage of @OfficialCCBL. How good was he? He even did a story for us figure skating before he became giant in golf journalism. Until we meet again at a 19th hole, fairways and greens @JeffBabz62

Sad to hear of the passing of Jeff Babineau, a wonderful golf writer. Jeff was a big teddy bear. If you were a fellow journalist, you wanted to hang with him. If you were a player, you were comfortable with Jeff telling your story. He was the best among us.

So sad to hear of the passing of golf writer Jeff Babineau. A friendly face and a fixture in golf. Still remember him returning from Newport CC the week of Tiger’s old Boston tournament. Jeff placed his scorecard on my desk. Low 70s, festooned w circles. Thing of beauty. RIP Babs

I retired from the Cape Cod Times 7 years ago and only contribute occasionally nowadays, so it's always enjoyable to be back in the pages where I spent so much of my life. A night that has lasted a lifetime capecodtimes.com/story/sports/h… via @capecodtimes
