The Seattle Bombers were the Northwest’s first professional football franchise. The Bombers had a talented roster of players in their inaugural season of 1944, heavily infused with former UW stars, including quarterback Dean McAdams, and guard Steve Slivinski, who also served as assistant coach. The Bombers played seven home games at Sicks’ Seattle Stadium, with the first home contest in franchise history on Sept. 8, 1944 resulting in a 12-7 loss to the Los Angeles Mustangs. The Bombers ended the season with a record of five wins, five losses and a tie, with three of the five wins coming at home.
