Back To Back Interceptions In Seattle

 I'm right on never seeing back to back interceptions in a game on the first two plays from scrimmage.  It had never happened before in the NFL.  

Absolutely amazing. 

The 12s Make Noise

 The loud crowd makes it hard for the offensive team to concentrate; this makes fans feel like they have a hand in the results of the game.  This does not always go over well with fans of the visiting teams.

Yesterday's game was exciting as the Seahawks intercepted on the first play from scrimmage.  In decades of watching football, I don't remember that happening. The joy was short lived because, on the next play, the Seahawks would throw another interception to the Chargers. I've seen back to back fumbles and, of course, back to back turnovers, I just don't recall ever seeing back to back interceptions. 

The two teams combined for 30 penalties. 14 committed by the Seahawks.  A couple of Seahawk penalties, extended Chargers drives, leading to scores. 

After all of that, the Hawks won 30-23.

Blue Thunder Plays For Seahawk Fans

 Some Charger fans enjoyed it too.  It was a capacity crowd at Luman Field as the Seahawks were able to bounce back from a defeat a week ago.

Beat The Chargers!!

NBA Expansion Possibly Delayed

New wrinkle in the process of bringing the NBA back to Seattle. It's not from here though, it's from the proposed Las Vegas team.  Former Sonic fans have already been extemely skeptical as to whether this will happen.  

Brodie Brazil, a YouTube sports reporter elaborates.

Old Walla Walla Radio Remembered 41--Mike Cherry Calls Baseball

  

Mike Cherry, in 1973, was named radio announcer for the Walla Walla Padres in 1973. The games were broadcast on KUJ.  

This articles was sent by my brother, Steve.  

Cherry would later serve the area as county assessor.  He was a Democrat, but was married to the daughter of a prominent Walla Walla Republican. This probably did much to get him elected in a mostly Repubican Walla Walla County.  Cherry would later resign his position in mid-term.

Cherry did set me up to interview for a job at KUJ, but I was close to graduation and planned to leave the area to go to college.
