More storytime from the book:

Having already made big “Daddy points” with getting them out of the homework, the game ends. Nats win. Nice Consig family moment.

Now, I’m sitting here debating what the series price should be with my teenage daughters.

They are both making...

a good case for each side.

The debate is heating up, and the kindergartner is sleeping.

I’m just happy to be talking to the teenagers at all at this point.

From the kitchen, without turning around, Mrs Consig says

“If you jagoffs wake up the baby, you will...

all be sorry.”

Silence.

The 14 year old is barely holding back the laughter outburst that will end up in me being in trouble.

I have to do something to save us all.

“Mama, who do you think should be favored in the next series?”

Mrs Consig stares at us. Ice...

cold. Nobody moves. We wait.

“You know I don’t give a shit either way, right? How could Roberts let Kershaw face Rendon in the 8th? Then leave him in after that?”

A couple seconds pass.

“If you don’t make the Nationals favored after that, you are a jagoff.”

Nats-120 it is
