We’re on our way to a Huskies basketball game- CJ’s first.
“Mommy, are we going to a FOOTBALL game?” CJ asks from the backseat.
“No honey, this is a basketball game.” I tell him.
“But I want to see FOOTBALL,” he moans,
“Because in football they fall down a lot and I like that.“

If he likes football for the falling you should introduce him to hockey. There’s falling AND hitting. And sometimes blood!

Well that goes without saying. Football is waaaay better than basketball! My son’s PE teacher made them watch a basketball game for homework this weekend…I thought I was going to die from boredom!

I’d rather see football than a Husky basketball game, too! Just kidding. ;) I have to admit the Huskies are good this year.

Done. Thanks for a great blog. Your son’s comment reminds me of the scene in Big Daddy (Adam Sandler) where he’s throwing sticks under the rollerbladers in the park. I do not condone such behavior as a rollerblader myself, but it was just a wee bit funny.

I agree. I like football for the same reason. But cage fighting is a lot of falling and blood. So, in my house it’s all about the cage fighting.

How funny. Yeah, I agree with the commenter above about hockey. Seems like he’d looove hockey, lol
