A Love Letter to HubSpot… Pass it On!

Psst! Could you pass this note up to the HubSpotter sitting in the front row? I promise you won’t get in trouble. I have to admit a crush I have… @replying @HubSpot on Twitter with a link to this post is one way to pass it on. You could also put the link on the

Winter Meetings Experiences

Every year in the first full week of December, Major League (and Minor League) Baseball holds its Winter Meetings. They’re usually in a warmer climate, though that’s not always the case. They are always interesting though, no matter what your goal is as an attendant. If you’re the paparazzi or just a star-gazer, you’ll get

On Missing Doc

If there was one BU event I would do anything in my power to be at, it was the contest between Comm. Ave rivals that featured Jerry York’s first chance at tying the all-time wins mark tonight. Although that milestone would have been pretty impressive, it didn’t have anything to do with why I wanted

It Feels So Weird to be Dry.

Yes, that’s a direct quote of Seth MacFarlane impersonating Ryan Lochte on Saturday Night Live a few weeks back. Luckily my family can say that after this weekend. This post isn’t meant to be a sob story for me to win over your sympathy because of my past issues. I’d prefer you give it to

One of the Most Important Lessons I Learned Came from One of my Interns

Interns are the lifeblood of many organizations, especially minor league sports teams, startups and small businesses. I had a bunch of internships before, during and after school, and loved all but one of them. The attitude and effort of the people I worked with were just as important to my development as my own quality

Nunie’s Pumped

In a Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon kind of way, the Worcester Tornadoes have something to celebrate. For the first time in 45 seasons, a Major League Baseball player has won the Triple Crown. Miguel Cabrera led the American League in batting average, home runs, and runs batted in this past baseball season. Miguel never

Nick Gagalis: Digital Hoarder, the Sequel (with More Explosions)

So maybe I’m not Michael Bay. I don’t have an even more sexed-up Megan Fox to offer you, but I have something the Transformers director does not: a legitimate sequel to my work that continues the storyline without sacrificing anything (or using unnecessary slow motion with boobs and stuff blowing up in the background). In

People I Admire, Part 3: Mitch Joel

Most people I know probably have no idea who Mitch Joel is. That’s not to say he isn’t well-respected or an authority in his field, but he doesn’t crave the limelight. He has spoken before about how he could have taken a different route to gain more exposure for his blog, but he chose to

An Alternative to Grad School

After dropping some serious money on BU, I’m taking a different approach to my post-undergraduate education. I don’t regret going to an expensive private university for a second, especially since I have my girlfriend, my career and a much busier social life to show for it. However, I doubt I’ll go down that route for

Nick Gagalis: Digital Hoarder

My goal for the Worcester Tornadoes heading into this past baseball season was to have the most comprehensive in-house coverage of any team in the Can-Am League. It took a lot of work from Seth Orensky, Davis VanOpdorp and I to get the stat packs, game notes and other media information prepared each day. It’s
