- The biggest joys
of parenthood, so far, have been following your kid's
leads to different adventures. I liked watching
basketball as a kid but never really played. In 8th
grade my school team needed a player and I filled in
for a few games, but I never actually made a team
or felt like part of one. I'm slow. Watchoo gonna do.
I was also really good at other shit, so I went
in that direction.
-
- Cam is 5 and seems
to be pretty determined no matter his height or age to
do damn near anything - so we looked into a league for
kids and, well, this is why I have a video
blog:
-
-
- I didn't want to
extend the video another FIVE MINUTES because of
that asshole kid who "fake punched" Cam but now that
I have a moment...
...if my kid EVER fucking did that to a kid his age,
I would lose it. If he did that to a
pre-schooler? I would walk out on the floor, pick
him up, and take him home. I'm a big fan of standing
up to bullies - I think it's the greatest thing
you can do in life and I've got a few stories under my
belt... but when you're 9 or 10 and you're trying to
intimidate pre-schoolers I kinda want beat the fuck
out of you. This kid did it like 2 or 3 times before
I caught it on film and I was calm about it
mostly because Cam was oblivious. I also knew this was
the first and last time he'd have to play with kids
twice his age so that helped. But man... fuck the
parents of that kid.
-
- Now, the new place
was awesome, the coaches were awesome and we've found
a home for a couple months for SURE. The whole Back to
the Future connection was funny, but not really a
reason to stay there. No, we're staying because he
will learn how to play the game. Competition will
come, but I still think he's a year from that. Time
will tell...

- Alright, Talya and
I are off to VEGAS tomorrow. ALONE! AHHHHH!!!!
WHAT FUN.
