Do you remember Coach Cal? He is the 7-year-old Canadian hockey fan Callan Perks, who gave a great pre-game speech to OHL team Peterborough Petes and became a media sensation. He appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and in his suit and tie delivered a passionate speech to DeGeneres, who is in the final season of her popular talk show. The studio audience gave him a standing ovation and moved DeGeneres to tears. He’s on his way. I think we’ll see more of Cal in the future. Great speech!
