rection gymnastics has gone be-
cause the gymnasts today are too

to talk to the athletes when they
are not surrounded by fans."
The Atlanta Games marked the
fourth Olympics for Mr. Stacey.
He also worked Calgary and Seoul
in 1988 and Barcelona in 1992.
As a cameraman, Mr. Stacey
needs to have an understanding
of the sport he works.
At the equestrian venue, Mr.
Stacey learned by doing. Or, as he
described it, he learned via os-
mosis.
"Go ahead, ask me anything
about equestrian," he said.
With other sports, particular-
ly football, it helps to be able to un-
derstand and anticipate what the
team or an individual player might
do.

Of course, there have been
times where Mr. Stacey makes
mistakes. His "ugliest" moment
came while working a hand-held
camera at a football game. He
somehow managed to cross his
camera's cable over the net raised
behind the goalpost when a field
goal was kicked. When the net
went up, so did his camera. For-
tunately, he had enough cable to
keep from losing the valuable
equipment.
Mr. Stacey, a 1979 graduate of
the University of Michigan, began
his career with the weekend news
at WUOM, the National Public
Radio affiliate in Ann Arbor. From
there he worked a camera for a ca-
ble company and picked up vari-
ous jobs when he could, including
work for the ESPN sports net-
work.
His resume also includes a stint
as cameraman for a preacher's
program on Channel 62. Six
months after he got the job, Mr.
Stacey was fired because the
preacher had a "talk with God."
His network break came when
a cameraman didn't show up for
a Pistons game. A friend called Mr.
Stacey to see if he could fill in. He's
been "filling in" ever since. ❑
