What does the Starship Enterprise have in common with toilet paper? They both circle Uranus in search of Klingons. Classic... this is a personal story, so forgive me. My 9 year old, 7 at the time, came home one day and was super quiet but broke down eventually and showed me his folder from the day that had his behavior stuff in it. His teacher had written something about him in class. I finally got him to break, but they were doing a lesson on the solar system and he told me he made a joke about Uranus and got in trouble for saying it "too many times." When I asked him what that meant, he burst into tears and said, "a lot... I said it a lot of times!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jonesy Bull Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Im as frustrated as anybody, but never cool to heckle, cuss, or boo the the team. Ther are kids in the stands that pick up on these things. And the players are amatures not professionals. Team sucks but cant let emotions get out of control in public. Privacy of your own home different story....ive destroyed a couple of remotes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parents drop a bunch of money, bring their families to watch the games and then have to put up with drunken, profane, self-centered "fans". I'm surprised that there are not a lot more fights than there are just for that reason. You're only young once but immature is forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone mentioned, although I've never had to use it, that texting feature the stadium has for problems seems to work pretty well ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
