6::09 EST Dogdeacon household, wife out for night 4 boys just finishing dinner
Dogdeacon : you all get ice cream and can stay up past your bedtime IF you agree to watch
The UConn game instead of books
All: yes dad
Start watching on DvR and one of my two 6 yr olds asks;
"Dad who is supposed to win"
Dogdeacon: the other team is the favorite to win the whole tournament
6yr old (I swear 100% unprompted): "We are DOOMED'"
I smiled broadly and immediately went from thinking UConn had a punchers chance to believing it was destiny. I tried to explain the significance of 'doomed' to him and he naturally said yeah he knew about that.
Put 3 to bed after UConn run to get to 15-16 and watched the rest with my 9yr old. Top 5 game watch ever for me. What a team. Great night.
