Steve Dangle’s incredible odyssey, from self-starting Leafs lover to sports-media starHow do you turn ranting about hockey into a career? Steve “Dangle” Glynn is a YouTuber, podcaster, and sports personality from Toronto, who managed to turn a 16-second online rant about the Maple Leafs into a career in sports media. From video blogging in his parents’ house at 19 to yelling on televisions across Canada at 28, Dangle has been involved with some of the most important sports companies in the country. In between tales of Steve’s adventures, both online and off, This Team Is Ruining My Life is also a kind of how-to (or how-not-to) guide: in an ever-evolving media landscape, sometimes you have to get creative to find the job you want. This is Steve Dangle and his accidentally on purpose journey through sports media so far.

“All in all this book is fantastic, illustrating all of the hard work it takes to be successful in hockey media. Dangle made sure to pack it full of great stories and life lessons that hopefully help push you to the next level in whatever venture has your attention in life. Even if you’re not Dangle’s biggest supporter I’d still highly recommend giving this book a read.” — Historically Hockey
