Per DoD. Citing needing to spend more time with family at home.

One of the best reasons I can think of.........

A job like that isn't really conducive to family life. You're basically not home during the summer months.

Tough loss for the series. I have talked to him a few times and he was always very genuine and seemed like a straight shooter. I have to give that guy credit for sending Clanton home when he hit Chub under caution. That was one of the best moments in PPV ever.

If you read the article, he said "... When it wasn't fun anymore I would step aside."

After that comment he eventually got to the family reason.

A friend of mine works with a member of the Schwallie family, and it sounds like Rick has talked about stepping away from lucas in the past, basically for these same reasons. Jobs like this are perfect for single guys that don't have a family at home.

As fans we kinda seem to forget things like this sometimes.

The former Bruce Jenner might be interested in a job like these!

I'd never think of traveling to shoot like I did when I was younger. Family comes first, thankfully when I was with the SAS my family would go with me. I don't think I would want to tackle that with 2 now.
