Boo(mer) Sooner

I grew up in a Kansas State Wildcat household but at some point throughout my childhood I jumped ship and became a Kansas Jayhawks follower. However, in the past couple of years I've stopped becoming a die hard fan of either team. I'll watch them when they're on t.v. and definitely support them over other college teams they play but I don't claim one team more than the other (but don't tell my boss that - she thinks I'm a fellow KU fan in the rivalry at the work place!).

Today K-State faced Oklahoma University in Manhattan. It was kind of a big game since KSU was ranked 8 in the BCS and OU was ranked 9 following their huge loss to Texas Tech last week. While watching College Gameday (because I refuse to watch SpongeBob anymore!) I asked Hayden, "what do we say when we watch football?" He promptly exclaims "Gooo Cowboys!" and pumps his right hand up into the air. I laughed and said "no, Hayden, today we say 'go Wildcats'!" So he repeats "Go Wildcats" with another fist pump. We both laughed and I looked at Tucker, who was sitting in my lap, and said "Boo Sooners!" Tucker was watching us and broke out into a huge smile when I said "Boo Sooners"! I know he has no idea what we're talking about and probably won't for several years but I like to think that I'm teaching him early to pick the right teams! ;)
