I kind of felt guilty last night. My poor seven year old son has really gotten into the Chiefs this year. I never pushed it, but he sits right beside me and watches the entire game. He is sitting beside me last night watching the Chiefs on their last possesion in his Alex Smith jersey and looks at me and says "Dad, I'm scared". Meaning he had the same butterflies I had, which is alot of the fun of being a sports fan. However, I felt awful thinking I have cursed this poor little guy into having a lifetime of heart ache (not so much in being a Chiefs fan, but a die hard sports fan in general). Reminded me of the Ken Burns documentary on Baseball "The 10th Inning", when the one guy looks over at his young son bawling his eyes out after the Sox blew another one to the Yankees, "what have I done?".
You can help your son...buy him a Pats jersey for Christmas!!
