The ultimate insult...

Jack has an adjustable basketball hoop at home and he loves to shoot baskets. Well shoot is probably incorrect. He can shoot the ball but he prefers to dunk everything.

He runs around yelling, "I am Kobe!" or "I am UCLA". Keep in mind, you can not be Kobe or UCLA. Jack thinks they are one in the same or he has to be both.

Jack: "Daddy, shoot baskets with me."
Me: "Okay."
Jack: "I am Kobe"
Me: "Fine...I will be Lebron"
Jack: "Okay, you are Uncle Ron!"
Me: "NOOOO! I said L-E-B-R-O-N"
Jack: "Hahhahaa, you are Uncle Ron!!"

OH NO! How the mighty have fallen!! I go from being the best player and teammate ever to now being called Uncle Ron!!! The ultimate insult to be named after a player that doesn't even shower all the time!! P-U!!

There is a little more to this story but not as funny:

Jack: "Mommy come play too."
Aya: "Ok"
Jack: "I am Kobe and you are Aunty Jenny!"

I guess Jack knows how to pick losing opponents in basketball!! He already has the eye to pick the weakest from the herd! =)

Hey hey hey....being Uncle Ron isn't that bad an insult, is it??? Lol.

I think the worse part of the story is the justification you gave Jack on why you didn't want to be Uncle Ron. That's fine if you told him I can't hit my shots or I'm turnover prone or I'm slow on defense, but to see Jack last week and to hear him call me "Stinky Uncle Ron, stinky Uncle Ron" over and over again was not a top 5 moment for me. ;0
