I'm a senior director of product marketing for a 2,000+ Silicon Valley enterprise software company. When I was in junior high, a friend and I opened up a baseball card shop by negotiating with a local toy store to let us lease a portion of their place. Our place was robbed and we split the collection up. My friend (still my best friend) owns a successful sports memorabilia store in Los Angeles. I eventually went off to get my business degrees and got into marketing, but have been playing fantasy football for 5 years in a number of stakes leagues.

The first year I was dead last. Since then I've won the league, been second and 3rd a few times. Besides the first league I ever played in, my worst showing was 5th.

Of note I was in the bleacher section where Barry Bonds hit his record breaking home run. My girlfriend is still furious that I didn't jump into the fight for the ball.
