Yes, Gear Diary Writers Do Have Day (and Night) Jobs

Posted on 05 September 2009 by


We started the weekend with Adrian’s excellent post on what’s wrong and right in college football. Yeah, we’re a site dedicated to gear, but as Judie and I were discussing this morning -  there are other things to life than gadgets… at least sometimes. ;-)

Adrian’s was a good piece, but it was missing one thing that is not only good but excellent in high school football. Gear Diary Contributor Travis (AKA “Coach”) is a coach for the Falls City High School Battlin’ Beavers.

Two games into the season, and Coach and his team are 2 and 0, with the first game won 40-7 and second game won 28-12.

Travis is what we call “right” with High School Football. Here he is in action…

Having a father who was heavily involved in early laser and fiber-optical research, Dan grew up surrounded by technology and gadgets. Dan’s father brought home one of the very first video games when he was young and Dan remembers seeing a “pre-release” touchtone phone. (When he asked his father what the “#” and “*” buttons were his dad said, “Some day, far in the future, we’ll have some use for them.”) Technology seemed to be in Dan’s blood but at some point he took a different path and ended up in the clergy. His passion for technology and gadgets never left him. +Dan Cohen

    Haha! Thanks! And I thought Dan wanted some clips from the game Friday because he was beginning to like football!

    Last year I got it on the night we officially won the district championship and a couple of times in the playoffs. It takes your breath away and stops your heart for a few seconds!
