Don’t really think you should feel obligated to justify developmental milestones of toddlers to pti.

Alabama dude in the toboggan saying "Matt F'ing Jones?" after the botched fake punt was nice. Showed almost simultaneously as Herbie and Fowler were questioning it.
Need to hear from a communications major before I can buy it.
That’s natural for young’uns. They start to figure out sports loyalty around late junior high. Hang in there.
Really having trouble brainwashing my 5 year old son into becoming a UK fan at the moment. Still have time, I don't think it really caught on for me until about 10 years oldish. If it's not Mindcraft, a Leggo PS4 game or other kids playing video games on youtube he could or couldn't really care or careless.
My 12 year old daughter is exactly what UCL explained, her only true interest in UK athletics is that I'm in a good mood and may authorize a online clothing purchase or something after a big W without paying attention to the cost.
My 5 year old daughter...that's a bridge too far.

My 11 year old lives and dies with every play in both football and basketball. Has since he was about 6. The night we lost in the FF in 2015 (he was 7) he looked over at me, pulled a blanket over his head and said, "I don't even want to wake up in the morning".
Now my 6 year old is the complete opposite. He hates having to watch a game with us (but refuses to go to any other room to watch what he wants because he still wants to be around big brother and daddy). He also thrives on being a contrarian, which leaves me with a sinking feeling he may become a UL fan just to spite us. I send subtle messages in hopes he doesn't pick up on which way I am pushing him. I'm treading very carefully and counting on the Social Learning Theory to prevail in the end.

-told my girls that if they were to become fans of uavel, UT, STL, cubs, duke, osu or unc I would cut them off financially and write them out of my will.

The seeds were planted for my UK fandom by pops when he took me in '85 to see them beat NC State. But I hardly recall anything until after probation.
Foggy memories:
1986: Was playing nerf hoops at my friend's in Portsmouth, Ohio. His step-dad going nuts and I went over and watched the last moments of the LSU game. First game I ever remember watching. Bawled and they had to take me home. My first emotional Cat moment.
1987: Sitting in a Portsmouth, Ohio Mr. Gatti's and seeing them lose to Ohio State.
1988: Listening to them lose to Seton Hall while in a Portsmouth, Ohio Ramada Inn hot tub.
1989-1991: Listening to them lose on the radio to Southwest Louisiana. Yep, on my way back from karate class in Portsmouth, Ohio.
Wasn't until mid-1992 season where it all clicked.
F Porstmouth, Ohio, man! What a sh*t town that is/was.

Was watching a game with my little nephews over the holidays where some honk was getting off from deep and the 3 year old yells out STOP GO UNDER TH BAW SKEEN STAY WIF DA SCOOTER. :joy:
Looked at my brother and said “welp he’s definitely a part of our family”.

Imagine the look on your 3 year old nephews face when he gets to discuss X’s and O’s with Eddie Gran in person.

As long as it’s not Louisville, Duke, IU, UNC, etc I think its perfectly natural for kids getting into sports to enjoy other teams besides Homestate U. If it moves into high school, though, you’re raising a bandwagon dbag.
Started using "It be like that sometimes" in my normal day to day convos
This compelled me to google street view Portsmouth. This is the first place I landed on and looks about spot-on how I pictured the place.

I loved the show, but not sure I'm naming my kid after him.

I had never heard of Portsmouth, OH until last month. This Friday, I’m going there for a site visit and city council meeting. I **** you not.
I assume that a local Mexican junt is the best lunch option. If you have a position of knowledge, please speak up if this is not the case.

Portsmouth Brewery or the Scioto Ribber. Pilsner they make at the brewery actually ain’t bad.
At some point I hope our HOFC attributes everyones superbowl playing out of their minds against us to our own ****** defense/effort.
Good response. Still hate the slow starts.

IQ with another spark. He finding his role?
As my buddy Tony said via text, love that the bench started this. Big positive. Each of them has added spark.

Montgomery brings an interesting game. Has some craft and creativity off the bounce that you don’t see very often from 6’10” kids.
Say what you want good or bad about Travis, but it always cracks me up when someone posts him up and tries to back him down. Good luck with that.
