Are You Ready for March Madness? First Annual Real Estate Blog Brawl

March marks the beginning of Spring.  To many, March means basketball.  College basketball and lots of it.  The time honored tradition of office pools, brackets, sweet sixteen, Final Four.  Even the uninitiated get involved and everyone supports their local college team.

Get ready for something a little different.  In the spirit of March Madness, the Virginia Association of REALTORS, through its own blog, VARBuzz is hosting the First Annual Real Estate Blog Brawl.  My friend, association executive Ben Martin devised this contest and describes it as follows:

"A single-elimination winner-take-all competition. A fight-to-the-death blog battle where VARbuzz readers determine the winner.  Throughout March, we’ll hold up to six rounds of voting to determine who moves on to the next round, who goes home weeping, and ultimately the winner. Being as this is the Blog Brawl, there are no rules. Competitors can use whatever means at their disposal to drive up their vote.

So, get to it. Nominate all of your favorite real estate blogs as many times as you want by Friday, February 29th at 11:59 p.m. EST."

Sounds like fun, doesn't it? 

If you like what you've been reading here on Virginia Real Estate News, I'd certainly appreciate it if you would just take a minute and nominate my blog to participate in the Blog Brawl.  You can do so by heading on over to VARBuzz (probably the coolest REALTOR association blog out there). 

I'd certainly appreciate it if you'd nominate this blog (http://blog.brianblock.com) for participation in the Brawl. 

Please hurry, the deadline is tomorrow night.

And feel free to vote for my blog throughout the month of March.  I'm not sure if there are any prizes, but just the opportunity for some bragging rights among my peers.

Thanks for reading.
