Nothing better than hearing stories from the guys you grew up watching!
"I go to shake & Larry put both hands behind his back...First play of the game, he says, 'You don't even belong in this league, Holmes.' and he shoots a three...I said, 'Did this son of a bitch just call me Holmes?'"

I have been asked is there anything I can do for you? YES!

2. MENTION my name to others who are in a position to change my circumstance.
3. Vouch for my character, competence and competitive spirit.
4. Know that our relationship is bigger than a job opportunity.
