Is Chris a big personality? Seems that way. Is he successful in his career? Again, it appears that way. I can see where that could run some people the wrong way but he has opinions that I find interesting and I appreciate it that he looks at things from a business lens. Plus, I think he does bring to light issues that others poo poo or ignore.
For the haters, the more you complain about him, the more that you make people get interested in him.
