fights: everywhere they shouldn't be

(i dared kim to wear the tacky head band and all she got were compliments... go figure.)



i'm flipping channels friday night and come up on the end of the pacers/pistons game. everybody's seen it, it's ridiculous, both fans and players were way out of line. fast forward to the clemson/usc game. yusef kelly, laughing about it says, "it's no worse than the pacers and pistons last night. they actually got the fans involved. at least we kept it to the football teams." friggin' 400 year old lou holtz was out in the middle of it trying to break it up. way to send your coach out in style you idiots.



skip ahead to last night. kim (pronounced kee-um) invited katie and i to go with her family to the macon trax hockey game. no good fights!!! the game itself was disappointing, macon got killed 5-2 and didn't play well at all. to make things more pitiful, the teams had staged a fight, so as the first face off puck is dropped, all the players stop to watch these two guys go at it. except they didn't really fight. it was kind of a, "i'll swing at you and miss a few times while you swing at me and miss, then we'll hug for a few seconds until the refs decide they can break us up even if we aren't laying on the ice because we look really gay right now."



other than the pitiful game, we had a lot of fun. their tickets are on the second row (on the glass is a lot more money) so there were a few good checks right in our faces. both of kim's boys are the cutest kids ever. her four year old son aaron is pretty shy but finally opened up. and her 6 year old, zach, tried to beat me up like he did last time i saw him, except this time he was a little more persistent. it was my fault for getting him so wound up, of course. oh, and just like when he fell in love with larissa, he fell in love with katie. as we were walking to our seats doug told him to hold his hand, and he ran back and grabbed katie's.



after the game we grabbed some wendy's watched florida finish off fsu (congrats zook) and fell asleep watching saturday night live. i woke up to showtime at the apollo, and i swore it was still snl because it was so terrible. blue was happy to see me when i rolled in at 2.
