From Lincoln Logs to football stadiums: Jim Wilson’s thoughts on each of the Pac-12 venues …
It is a strange feeling to watch a football game without fans in the stands. It is even stranger to watch college football on Saturdays knowing that Pac-12 football stadiums are sitting idle.
Through these unprecedented times, I’ve learned how much I appreciate all the pageantry and build-up around the stadiums and the energy that college football fans bring to the overall atmosphere.
And I miss the stadiums themselves.
For Ron Callan, a strange yet fulfilling night at CenturyLink Field
Through covering and working for the Seahawks for 40 years, I never expected to be watching a game in an empty Century Link Field. Beginning in 1981, I covered the Seahawks as a radio reporter, serving as a member of the Seahawks’ broadcast team (1995-2002). Since that time, I have worked the home games as a member of the Seahawks staff. I have the incredibly intense and rewarding job as the internal public address announcer. From my seat in the NFL stats room, I relate the official stats to the throng of media and others packing the stadium's press box.
As coaches go, as people go, Dick Coury was a gem
I saw a local car dealer’s “Believe in Nice” ad today.
It made me think of a man whose life embodied that approach.
To Dick Coury, “nice” was more than a slogan. It was his way of life. Sunup to sundown.
