Though I've never met him I'm a second cousin of Dave Brandon and we were born a week apart. I knew his grandfather though and my late dad knew his father well.
He'd had huge success at both Valassis and Dominos before flaming out as athletic director at the University of Michigan.
When I heard he'd taken the job at Toys R Us I was baffled. My dad said but he will make hundreds of millions of dollars if he turns it around. I told him with the crushing debt and people buying more toys online it's surely an impossible task and I am stunned he wouldn't know it.
