printnw . net great schools for their kids , they want the opportunity to go to college . They want to have a great quality of life . Those things are the same everywhere . We might have slightly different views on how to get there , but there ’ s a lot to agree on .
Do you have any advice for your successor as majority leader in the Senate ?
I remember my first year I was about a month or so into the majority leader job . I was like , This job ’ s actually pretty easy . And then getting down to the last few weeks of the session , I remember thinking , Oh , my God , this is a really , really hard job . So don ’ t get fooled by the early times when the easy decisions are before you , because the hard decisions all come in the last few weeks . I say that somewhat jokingly , but just stay calm , because there will be really difficult decisions . The hard moments are actually not where you say , ‘ Our two options are Option A or Option B ’, but where you ’ re faced with the situation where there really aren ’ t any options , and you have to trailblaze out a path that doesn ’ t exist at all . Those are the challenging moments . I enjoyed that challenge , and I know whoever comes after me will be successful .
What ’ s ahead for you as you leave the Legislature , and would you consider looking at running for a statewide position ?
I ’ ll never say never to potential other jobs , although I think being the Senate majority leader might be the best elected office that there is . It ’ s a great job . I really enjoyed it . What ’ s next for me ? I am going to go back and work for Brett Sports and probably do some other things as well . To be determined .
Since you are in the baseball business , who are a few of your favorite baseball players of all time ?
I grew up as a Baltimore Orioles fan so Cal Ripken was my favorite player growing up , but my favorite players now are all former Spokane Indians baseball players . Some of the greats that I saw play in Spokane have been Carlos Beltrán , Ian Kinsler , Jurickson Profar and many others .
