Nebraska Cornhusker Football
Something incredibly funny happened today. Sammy, who as I’ve said before, has become extremely attached to me, decided that I know all there is to know about life, the universe, and everything, deeming me the one to ask about Nebraska Cornhusker football. And, as you may all well know, I am a fan of the team, but I am not exactly the person to ask when it comes to the particulars of the players, their stats, and the complete and accurate history of Nebraska Cornhusker football. Sammy could have asked any of his uncles about the Nebraska Cornhusker football culture here, but he asked me. So I did the only thing I can do; I broke out of the omnipotent image I was relegated to in my adorable nephew’s psyche and I took him to talk to one of the guys about Nebraska Cornhusker football.
As Jimmy regaled Sammy with tales and legends of Nebraska Cornhusker football, I sat back and wondered if I would ever have to answer questions like that from my own future children (because I definitely intend to have my own kids). The idea of having to relegate this kind of thing to the men, the men who will undoubtedly bring the children over to the dark side of Nebraska Cornhusker football fandom, sends shivers down my spine. Perhaps this is how new generations of fanatics are spawned.
