It was on many homes as we walked through West Seattle, the banner proudly hung from roofs and windows. No doubt this is true all over the region. The Seattle Seahawks’ 12th Man flag. Pete Carroll has managed to assemble a young, scrappy, talented team that fans are hoping will take them all the way to the Super Bowl.

On another topic, this was painted on the privacy wall of a property near Alki Point. While I normally hate graffiti, it made me pause and wonder, “When is graffiti art?” or visa versa. It’s almost a parody of the form, as if the artist is challenging us to take sides on his artwork. In the end, I still didn’t care for it, even if I admired the humor.
