When I was growing up, my dad loved coaching baseball and hockey. So, of course, I played baseball and hockey. He coached most of my teams from the time I was old enough to stand up on skates. His dream for me was to play professional baseball. After an injury on the field in college, things didn’t work out the way we’d planned, but if my dad was disappointed about that, he didn’t show it. I think he knows I got what he wanted me to get out of sports. I think he knows that even though I’m an entrepreneur instead of a major league baseball player, I still am playing by the rules he taught me, and that’s what’s important to him.
