boys and their sports

As some of you may know, this weekend was the NFL draft. Not being a football fan myself, I could care less, but being in a house with 3 football, specifically Packers fans I ended up watching the very end of Saturday's portion of the draft. Things were going along very boringly when Luke suddenly got it into his head that someone was going to draft Brett Farve, his most favoritest player of all. So, he proceeded to loudly telling the people on the TV, "Don't draft Brett Farve, don't draft Brett Farve!!!" Rebecca quickly told Luke "They can't! Brett Farve has a contract." This of course, did nothing for a 5 year olds mind, and he proceeded to loudly protest the drafting of Farve. So, Rebecca tried a different approach. It was about 10 minutes later before we finally got it through that you CANNOT draft Brett Farve! It was actually quite comical! They keep showing all these young college graduates. And Luke is scared for his favorite, retiring after this year player. He was so cute and genuinely worried as well :)

Funny. :) My favorite Husker (UNL) player got drafted, even in the first round!! But I don't care about football anyways...I just had his card, so he was my favorite. :)

Ya'll have no idea how tramamtic drafting Brett Farve would have been for Luke. I shudder to think of the events that would have entailed:-)
