» A Big Day for Seattle

Posted on 1/22/2006

Avatar is a Seattle based lender and we share the excitement in our town as our football team, the Seattle Seahawks, head for the Super Bowl. Many readers probably already know that the Seahawks have never been to a Super Bowl, so this is a big event for the local fans. We’re happy, but not cocky.

As the game winds down this evening, Avatar sends best wishes to Pittsburgh who will meet the Seattle team in Detroit. And our hearty congratulations to the city of Detroit as they host the game. Realtors and mortgage brokers take note – lots of people are coming to town. Make sure they know who to contact if they are interested in investing in your town.

PS – The game is over and I am thrilled to see the players of both teams, hugging each other on the field, the coaches approaching each other with deliberation and dignity – and hugging each other, sharing personal words together, and not just shaking hands. Win, lose, or draw, a good game of sport is a fine way for a country to spend a Sunday afternoon. …and now, I am headed off to pick up two dear friends who flew all the way from Charlotte, NC to see the game. Sandy and Cary, we’re sorry you lost, but we’re happier the game brought you to town to visit with us.
