KIRO-TV is a television station in Seattle, Washington, United States, affiliated with CBS and Telemundo.
It’s a moment Seahawks fans have been waiting for — the team returning to the Super Bowl for the first time in a decade!“If the Seahawks are watching, my bucket list is for you guys to go to the Super Bowl and take me with you,” Kyle Dreesen told KIRO 7 in November.
Kyle Dreesen is about as diehard a Seahawks fan as you can get. He has a ‘12′ tattoo on his hand, and his ties to the team go way back. His mom was a Seagal in the 1980s. “It’s been a lifelong love,” Kyle said. “We’ve had our rough years, we had our good years, we got our great years, but they’re always there. There’s always a team to root for.”In November 2024, Kyle was diagnosed with Grade 4 astrocytoma. It’s an aggressive brain cancer with a typical survival time of about two years. He had emergency brain surgery on his 38th birthday. “We were both just in complete shock. You really don’t have time to process any kind of information at all,” his wife, Blair Dreesen, said.“That win last night was just so emotional for us on so many levels,” Blair added. “We don’t know how many more seasons we’re going to have together as a family. This has just been a really big season for us.”“We’re just on wait and pray mode,” Kyle said. “They say it’s not a matter of if, but when, and we’re just trying to get ahead of it as much as possible and enjoy the time with what we have and what we got.”The treatment has taken a toll–he’s lost a significant amount of his vision, but he’s pushing forward. “On those dark days, why are we pushing as hard as we’re pushing? Well, because of people like that who care for you. It’s because of your family,” Kyle said.“It was just being able to hold it and watch it go up and know the significance of what that flag means to us and what that flag’s meant to me as a fan all these years,” Kyle said. “Doesn’t matter how everything is going on in life. You always have the Seahawks you can choose and cheer for.”“This was really sweet. I literally get emotional seeing it because just to see that they took the time and the care to do something during a time that’s so difficult and so hard for a family to be going through,” Blair said.“It was just really sweet just to see the outpouring of people that typically were rivals and they were pouring so much love and saying like ‘I’ll cheer for the Seahawks just for your husband,’” Blair said.“We made it again. And I want to be able to take it all in and experience it for as much as I can, especially for this momentous occasion, especially with this team and how well they’ve done and performed. It’s been amazing,” Kyle said. His last chemo treatment is scheduled for the day after the Super Bowl, so he’s hoping to celebrate two victories that week.For one man battling Grade 4 brain cancer, the Seattle Seahawks returning to the Super Bowl for the first time in a decade is a dream come true.Amazon pulls plug on Amazon Fresh, Go stores; doubles down on Whole Foods, delivery Former Starbucks VP’s lawsuit claims she was fired after reporting equipment bred maggots, caught fire33-year-old man found dead in brush in Kent, homicide confirmed Patrol officers with the Kent Police Department were dispatched to the location of a dead body hidden in a brush at 11:52 a.m. Sunday.Chrystal Ortega's tireless dedication recently earned her the WSECU Community Champions Award and a $1,000 grant to further the mission.When Shawn Tibbitts opened Tibbitts FernHill, he was just trying to survive.
