Chapple studied political science at Syracuse University during the turbulent 1970s and narrowly missed having to fight in Vietnam as a draftee.
At first, Chapple says, the job was "a real kick." But soon the economic realities of working in Canada proved difficult, and he found himself spending more and more time interacting with sports agents, "which is about as fun as nailing Jell-o to the wall," he says.
Chapple admits that the tough part of starting a company from scratch is the initial lack of cash--he got his first paycheck 16 months into operation--but it's also a great opportunity to create a corporate culture that people would want to join.
