Those who played for Chuck Knox or worked alongside him remember the late Seattle Seahawks coach as someone who would strike fear in his players but could also relate to them, sometimes over a cold one.
Like he did one Sunday evening in 1990, inside a bar at the Kansas City airport.
The Seahawks were in the AFC West at the time, and until a few hours earlier, hadn't beaten the rival Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium since 1980. That was three seasons before Knox -- who passed away earlier this month at age 86 -- arrived in Seattle.
