Beating Them Like A Rented Mule

I got to attend Kyle's second hockey game last night, and he didn't disappoint. Already tallying a goal and an assist in his first game, Kyle answered with another goal and another assist. Four points in two games? Nice. Unfortunately, his team lost by a score of 9-6, and he was so angry that he didn't care about the goal.

The boy has his father's temper, too, because when the other team scored the go-ahead goal, he put his head down and shouted, "Damnit!" for all the rink to hear. Although I could sympathize, there was no way he was getting away with that one.

His next game is tomorrow night.
