Dedication

To Paige, whose infectious smile and endearing personality provided all the motivation (and, on occasion, insight) necessary to complete this book.

David M. Carter

To Mom, Dad, and Brian, for letting me immerse myself in sports and business, but always reminding me that family comes first.
