How the hell this guy became CEO of the USATF is anyone's guess.
His work history includes:
-Beer vendor at Yankee Stadium.
-Taxi driver.
-Worked for his family's construction engineering business.
-First commissioner of Major League Soccer.
-Formed a consulting firm.
-Helped form the National Rugby League.
-CEO of an animation technology company.
-"Director general" of a Mexican concert promotion company.
-Fought in Vietnam.
-Owned minor league basketball team the San Diego Wildcards.
MLS lost $250 million in it's first five seasons, and if you can name 5 MLS teams without looking, I'll send you a buck.
San Diego Wildcards went bankrupt.
National Rugby League??
Anything relating to the sport of T&F???
A lifelong competitive road runner at distances from 10 km to the marathon, Logan has clocked a marathon personal best under 4 hours
Ok. But I'd probably throw "competitive" out of there.
So this is the guy to take American T&F to the next level.?
A 66 year old with almost, lets just say no experience in track?
The guy whose idea of promoting his basketball team was to show up in multi-colored jesters glasses with dangling bells?
The man who just sent to the marathon trial to Houston, after NYC hosted the biggest, most watched, most exciting trials race ever??
HE'S going to change the way we watch track and field on TV??
This can't be good.
