I'm doing great.
I appreciate you having me on.
Yeah, actually, I was a Blue Jays at the time.
My last training was with the Blue Jays and my now favorite vacation spot, Clearwater, Florida.
So I do owe that to the Blue Jays for finding Clearwater.
And the basketball job at my high school opened up while I was still trying to play Major League Baseball at the time.
And long story short,
They sent me to AAA.
I didn't feel like traveling anymore.
I wanted to be with my family.
They couldn't be with me anymore.
They had grown up, and my kids were old enough at the time.
So I decided to retire, give somebody else a chance.
It was time.
And when I came back home, a lot of people encouraged me to put my name in for the basketball job.
It was something I did in the offseason.
I stayed with it.
It was something I always wanted to do.
I had a chance to play out of high school way before I was a baseball player.
And enjoyed it.
