Joy Drop: Sports U participants a real inspiration

Happy Friday! There are tears of joy, screams of excitement and laughter of possibility this week.

First of all, I want to congratulate the CBC Sports department for hosting the second CBC Sports U event. Senior producer Monika Platek and the team offered a one-day symposium for students and aspiring sports media professionals. It was a hybrid event (online and in-person). Many of my students attended and it was a smashing success. 

Devin Heroux and I were traveling but offered our encouragement and best wishes. We recorded this video last week and it was impromptu and so much fun to do. 

This is awesome! Talk about sparking joy on a Friday. <br><br>Thanks to both <a href="https://twitter.com/_shireenahmed_?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@_shireenahmed_</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/Devin_Heroux?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Devin_Heroux</a> for being so great and for bringing us your take on the sport stories of this era.
