he's a cool guy, not obnoxious about sports at all ..
his boss went to clemson .. we all had dinner one night about a year ago, after our "official program kick off meeting". we're going around the table, doing the introductions and ****, he comes to me, I go through my introduction, and I had just started w/ the company, didn't know a person at the table .. he says, "well I hope you're nothing like the last Stage grad I worked with, he tended to forget that clemson football was the only team worth talking about. You poor MSU fans sure are admirable."
I said "your high leadership skills are obvioulsy on display this evening, and just having started w/ the company, I can say that I'm also impressed by your professionalism and look forward to a successful program, sir. Now if you'll excuse me, your wife is calling me again"
not really .. but what he said is true. Every time I shake his hand I try to break it.
