Football Fun

I had the opportunity to go to my first NFL game this past weekend, thanks to a friend and former co-worker of mine. Vikings vs Bears at Soldier Field in Chicago. And why just go to the game when you can be down on the field, right??

It was a dream day for me. The light snow that was falling for much of the day made it even more of a neat experience.

While I was there I decided to get back into TV mode…the video above is the result of those efforts. 🙂

Thankful for the chance to enjoy a game, to go ‘behind the scenes’ while I was there, and for a chance to catch up with my friend who I hadn’t seen in probably a decade. Good times.

Positive Press

Today’s Positive Press is that The TODAY Show did a segment this morning about Robbie Gould and the Chicago Bears’ visit to Washington, IL earlier this month…and part of the story included interviews with my sons! I still can’t believe it.

I’d absolutely love to share the story but NFL restrictions are keeping that from happening right now. Will work on it and see what I can do 🙂

In the meantime if you missed it, here is the original blog I wrote the evening it happened: https://positivelysecond.wordpress.com/2013/12/04/a-goulden-opportunity/

I just want to give a shout-out to NBC for coming back to Washington and covering the story and keeping the community and its needs following last month’s tornado in the headlines. I’d also like to once again thank Robbie Gould and the Chicago Bears for putting smiles on people’s faces. They really made a positive impact on my sons and everyone they met while they were here!

 

A Note to Billy Cundiff and Kyle Williams

There will be better days, gentlemen. You helped get your teams as far as they got and in the end, a team wins or loses together as a team.

Keep your heads up.

That Doo-wop Song in the NFL Commercial

Was I the only one who was curious what song was playing in the background after seeing the ad a few times this afternoon? Well if you were wondering too, here it is:

‘Every Day of the Week’ by The Students.

Love it. I’m a big Doo-wop fan. Will be downloading this one in just a bit.

Actually it reminds me of another favorite of mine:
