It’s Another Blue Friday

The Seattle skyline features Seahawks loyalty

Our Seahawks Nation (tried and true)
prepares for Sundays dressed in blue.
We start each weekend “jersey-ed” up
and pulling out the stops.

We 12s know what Blue Friday means.
We show our pride and rep our team
in uniform allegiance
through the things we wear and say.

This weekly pregame fan routine
means more than cheering our home team.
Blue Fridays bind our town as one
and fuel a common aim.

In addition to each week’s post on this website, Greg Asimakoupoulos offers daily video devotionals on his YouTube channel. Here is a sample video. If you are interested in receiving these devotionals Monday through Friday, you can subscribe on Greg’s channel.

A Portrait of Greatness

/ Greg Asimakoupoulos
A portrait of Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll

He’s a portrait of greatness.
He’s picture of youth
(even though he’s as old as I am).
This gum-chewing shepherd
of gridiron sheep
is a passionate “prince of a man.”

He’s a cheerleading coach on the sidelines of life.
He inspires with focus and hope.
Another’s potential is the gift Pete unwraps.
He’s a Sherpa on steep slippery slopes.

He is worthy of honor
as he now departs
from a city that claimed him with pride.
He’s a Carroll that often
brought joy to our world.
But his leaving feels like someone died.
