Around the world people are excited about the winter Olympics. But I’ll leave that for another post. This post is dedicated to my Seattle Seahawks.

While all my Mexican friends were watching soccer on Sunday, I was watching the Super Bowl. I’d watched the NFL playoffs in Spanish. To my surprise and delight, ESPN streamed here in Mexico in English! What a treat!

It was a great game and I thought the choice of Walker as MVP was appropriate. Of course once they won, it was a bit of a letdown to be here in Aguascalientes while all my friends were celebrating back in Washington. Oh well. Maybe another time.

I can’t even begin to describe the team spirit for this beloved football team. On game days when I was in Washington, everyone in church was always decked out in their Seahawks jerseys. And I expect it to be the same next season.

But for now, I’m content to talk about Sunday’s game with my friends back in Washington on my cellphone.
