That's exactly what my thought process is.
When you're nine years old.
It is a cartoon.
Correct.
The scale of it is going to blow them away, and I also think that it might break them, sort of like the parent who, like, oh, you're smoking a cigar?
Now go sit in the closet and smoke the entire box of cigars and break that.
I feel like them seeing it at this impressionable age maybe will make them ultimately sort of like, yeah, I don't need to see it as a grown-up.
Okay, maybe that is what I'm doing.
And then I will, you know, 10 years, 20 years from now, I'll look back and say, you know, 2020 hindsight, I'm a terrible parent.
But in the meantime, off we go soon enough.
Let's kibitz about sports right now.
And I mentioned Gino Auriemma and Danny Hurley.
I mean, I get that everybody loves to hate Duke, but this, to me, felt very much Alien versus Predator.
Whoever wins, we lose, because Danny Hurley is in the winner's circle now once again, and he's pretty loathsome.
And I think that...
Again, maybe veering into hyperbole, I think Danny Hurley has worked his way, yes, to one of the great coaches that we've seen, but also one of the more hateable figures in my sports lifetime.
How say you, Amin?
Well, it's interesting to interrupt that point.
The thing that I've said a number of times, at least where it applies to football, and I'm not sure if it carries over to basketball, but the idea of the rah-rah Newt Rockne kind of guy and then turning into this type A, you know, hard-o guy, that Bill Parcells figure, you know, basically a pigskin version of Bob Knight.
That worked in the 20th century, but there's not much evidence of being that cat and it working this century.
