Football With Daddy

Today was Michigan State's first road football game of the season and that gave Seamus and I the opportunity to watch the game together. Janna abandoned us to go shopping with Agnus, she missed out on all the fun as our beloved Spartans came out on top, beating Pittsburgh 38-23. I'll give the boys credit, they looked terrible for the first quarter and a half but once they woke up they put a whoopin down on Pitt. State scored 38 straight points and with the exception of two Pitt TD's in the last 5 minutes of the game MSU looked terrific from the second quarter on. Nedless to say, Seamus was pleased with the outcome.
Seamus enters our study to watch the game. He's very excited about getting to watch football with daddy but he's a little worried about how our Spartans will play against a good Pitt team.
Seamus is disgusted with the beginning of the game, he turns his back on the television, he can't bare to watch as MSU goes down 10-0 and looks like total trash.
Seamus isn't very happy with a halftime score of 10-10 but he is pleased that MSU isn't getting blown out. He hopes they can carry momentum into the second half.
Here comes Drew Stanton to lead us to victory.
MSU is about to score a touchdown to go up 31-10 in the 4th quarter, effectively putting the game away.
Seamus is well pleased with the outcome and looks forward to visiting Grandma, Grandpa and sister Zoe next week before the MSU-Notre Dame game. Seamus especially enjoyed watching the game with Daddy, it reminds him of his first days after his adoption into the Birn family.

Poor Seamus. He missed out on all the fun Mommy was having with Agnes. Too bad.

not cool that you didn't answer my phone calls. at $16.60 per unanswered call, the going rate these days, your bill comes to $49.80, which I believe makes us even.
