Hey Mike, you know what? Today is actually GM day on the show.

We had the new GM of the capitals on the show today. Chris Patrick nice

guy and he was talking about his rise from well he had kind of a Joe job first

when he realized he wasn't going to be a professional hockey player and he worked in finance and then eventually he started off as a scout and worked his way all up all the way up to GM.

decided I'm not going to be the professional baseball player that I want to be beyond

where you were. What was it like in those first early years and did you ever think you were going to get to where you are now?
