My new job... not my new job
I'm excited to announce that I have accepted an offer to become the new General Manager of USA Team Handball... one of about 40 National Governing Bodies for US Olympic sports, and the first summer NGB to set up shop in Utah (joining US Skiing and US Speedskating). You won't find me (or us) at Beijing this summer - our men and women both failed to qualify. We will do our utmost to rectify that before London 2012. Go USA!
Simultaneously, I must admit that I am NOT going to be the new Anything at the Chicago Fire... They haven't decided who they're hiring, they just told me today it's not me. Good luck to them - maybe I'll try out for Chad Barrett's spot on the roster - or I could go back to my roots as Sparky.
Off to the races tomorrow... 178 miles from Logan to Park City... on foot... we're a team of 12. See you in PC around mid-day on Saturday!
Congrats on the new gig. Sounds like a great challenge with many exciting new adventures ahead. Looking forward to picking up Fodor's latest Yellowstone/Grand Teton's edition, too!

Well done, I expect great things from team USA in all future Team Handball events. Does this mean you get one of the spiffy Olympic Rings that OC Tanner is designing for the 2008 games?
