I am the "laborer" and my son is the "foreman" as we build sand castles...and this little boy, maybe a year younger than my son, came up and wanted to help. We accepted his help and worked together for a while. His dad was sitting in a chair soaking up some rays when I heard him answer his phone...I knew that voice right away.
Once he got off the phone, he came over to help and I started up a conversation with him. I teased him over his insults for the buckeyes over the years only to see them win a National Championship with a third string QB. He acknowledged that they are a great program. He just kind of shrugged when I asked him why he called them "a nice little program" before the championship run. At this point, he knew he was going to get teased by someone who knew what he was about and knew the facts. He tried to get his son to go with him, but his son was enjoying helping us on our HUGE sand castle.
At this point, I turned to his statements calling AD the "beige water pistol". He said he met AD and raved about what a good guy he is and how he thinks he is an OK QB. I told him that he would be eating his insults that he threw at Dalton over the past three years, just like he should have after OSU proved their worth.
I laid off after that point, and although I usually like his show it always pissed me off how he would slam certain teams, players, towns, etc. when the majority of his listeners would rally behind him..."yeah! The Bungles suck!"
Pandering to the lowest common denominator is nothing new...politicians have done it for centuries. But it is too bad he had to resort to that crap. I thought his show was fresh and entertaining until he would start that crap.
Just let your kid play with his kid and there's no need for "HA! GOTCHA! OSU RUULELEEZZZZZ" on a beach when your kids are playing together. I'd be embarrassed to post this publicly, yet I've seen you bring it up multiple times in the past.
Meh, I don't know, but something about this story just really gives me douche-chills.
