Getting the Edge on Dan

Worst job:

Big 5 Sporting Goods. I was basically a shoe salesman. They made a long running TV show about how bad it is to be a shoe salesman... that was a long summer.

First job:

At a golf course…I made $3.25/hr. At least the golf was free and I was probably the richest 8th grader in my class. $50 a week goes a long way when you're 13.

Favorite quote:

“Adversity causes some men to break, and others to break records.”

Favorite thing to do outside of work:

Spend time with family and friends, golf and anything sports related…I think I could name the opening day lineup for the ‘93 Mariners (I have a problem).

Pet(s):

My dog Abbey and two cats, Crash and Bailey...three animals is way too many.

Who inspires you?

Mom, my son, my wife.

Things your mother would approve of:

My character, the dad I am. 

Favorite food:

Mexican.

Favorite music:

Classic Rock…Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, CCR, Allman Brothers and Pearl Jam (they’ve been around since '91…it's classic by now right?)

Favorite hobbies:

Sports, anything on a boat, poker.
