I concur. Booing is unacceptable. One can be disappointed, but should not boo. I try to encourage good sportsmanship in my children.

Of course... the wife says it’s ok to boo the Oakland Raiders, so I can understand the mixed messages my kids are receiving

As the father of a 6-year-old, I would love it if he could string a story together with such penmanship, math skills, and cliffhangers. Please tell me he’s at least 8 years old. I think you have a prodigy on your hands!

Thanks!

(As parent of previously young kids imo this is really, really good)

You probably know better than anyone, right? But my guess, personally, is y’all got a real keeper there, one with tremendous personality

OK, so a recap.

A race consisting of 10 cars started, eight retired, leaving two to finish the race. One of the last two cars crashes with one mile left to go, and that driver ran to the finish line and won?

What the hell was the other car that it was beat by Denver on foot? A McLaren?

I’d watch this race.

Denver had obviously lapped him.so many times he could walk it home.

its classic tortios and hare

That makes sense that the McLaren was several laps back.

With a bit of editing, this could be made into a great film. 9/10, would read again.

such high praise. I’m thinking I might have to help him turn it into a real book.
