Becoming a Football Fan

We have another football fan at our house!  Just within the past few weeks Brayden has really started liking football.  He knows all the lingo - hit hit, set, pass, kicking the ball on the tee, go go and touchdown.  He points to the TV and requests "ballgame" daily.  Brayden cheers for the Chiefs, "Willie Powercat" (that's what he calls K-State) and any team with a horse related mascot or a horse that runs onto the field after touchdowns!

Brayden has attended two football games in Manhattan (both victories which is a better record than Tim thus far this season), two high school games and a road trip to Stillwater for the K-State/OSU game.  He gets very into the games by clapping, cheering, watching the action on the field, listening to the bands and questioning why some fans aren't clapping when he feels they should be.  He will tell you his favorite players are "Willie" and "Peyton" as in Peyton Manning and is especially fond of the kickers.
