Jim Jackson visited West Chester University

This past week I got to hear Jim Jackson (Philadelphia Flyers Broadcaster) speak about media related careers.      He made me realize that if we have a dream, that we need to pursue that dream.  He left us with two words, perseverance and experience, he said we can do these two things we will be successful.

*Note* Jim Jackson has also been covering the Phillies since 2007, and in 2008 they won the world series, and the Phillies organization gave him a ring that he passed around, the one on the right in the 2008 world series ring, and the one on the left was then NLCS ring when they lost to series to the yankees.

    Really bummed I didn't know about this sooner; I would have liked to have attended. Jim Jackson is a great announcer and when I am older I am sure he will be compared as the Harry Kalas of hockey in Philadelphia.
