Tonight Titus wrapped up Lil Dribblers - no its not a drinking rehab program for kids, though it does sort of sound like it, huh? (think Airplane, people) Ray just found Titus' award certificate. "So everyone was an MVP?" - I had kind of not even noticed that Titus got an MVP award.
Which reminded us of a very funny story. We once spent a few hours letting our toddler run around a gymnastics gym in Cary, IL. It was memorable primarily for the big sign above the door - "Cary Gymnastics - Home of Champions", wow I thought - cool I wonder if Olympic gymnasts train here - and then I saw the words just below..."where everyone is a champion".
Ah yes - political correctness and meaningless affirmation run amuck!*
*Ray and I have a theory that American Idol thrives on this kind of stuff - at least in those early rounds when you have delusional people who can't sing thinking they are IT. When did we lose the right to be average, just OK, or even not very good at some things?
