Welcome to another Casual Friday, the open thread where we take a break from Seattle Seahawks talk and venture into the off-topic world.
Today’s theme is whatever you want it to be. Field Gulls is taking the day off outside of Pre-Snap Reads and the latest Seahawks-in-5 trivia game. I suppose if some shocking Seahawks news happens then we’ll cover it but I don’t want to tempt fate by speaking it into existence. This is your water cooler to discuss your 4th of July plans (if you celebrate/live in the United States), tell us your gnarly fireworks mishaps, what you’ve put on the grill, what household chores you’ve repeatedly failed to do, I don’t really care! Just be on your best behavior because the rules of the site still apply.
I’m not really taking the day off because I’m currently down in Eugene, Oregon, providing coverage of the 50th anniversary of the Prefontaine Classic for SBNation.com. Here’s me interviewing Tokyo Olympic 800m champion Athing Mu-Nikolayev on Thursday.
I’ll be attending another press conference today and maybe open practice, just as I did last May. The actual track and field meet, which is loaded with 2024 Olympic champions and/or world record holders, is Saturday at 1 pm PT on NBC/Peacock if you want to check it out. I have no idea if I’ll incidentally be in any TV shots; it’s just as likely that I’ll mostly be in the media center that is away from the stadium and where post-race interviews are conducted.
The floor is yours! Chat away in the comments. If you post pictures of your July 4th food please review it carefully in order to avoid potential embarrassment when you were hoping for mass salivation.
