A Crushing Blow



The boys were desperate for the Packers to get the big win. Wearing our hats backwards may do the trick. Unfortunately it didn't do the trick. This was one sad house. As we sat down to eat dinner (WI style... brats, etc.) I noticed Stefan was very sad. I looked to Joe and told him he may need to help. When he approached and gave Stefan the beginning of his boost-you-up speech; Stefan began to sob. He has been so "INTO" the season of football. He was crushed with the Packer loss. As parents we were crushed to watch our child be crushed. It really breaks your heart to see your child suffer... even if it was just a football game. With snotty noses and all, we made it through dinner and mended our hearts with Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream!

We were sorry to see the loss too. That final interception was horrible. I don't know who we are rooting for now. Dave wants NE to win just so that all the sports reporters will stop talking about the ancient Miami Dolphin winning streak.

Benji could really care less. He'd rather be playing his Gameboy.
