trash talkin'

i just learned
that my dad
the mayor of farmersville, texas

and
the mayor
who i don't even care to know his name
of farmersville's number one rival,
princeton, texas

have entered into a duel.

of sorts.

TODAY.
friday.
is THE big rival game
between the Farmersville Farmers and the Princeton Panthers (or, more affectionately known, The Princeton Sucks-and-Who-Cares-What-They-Are-Anyway-Meow-Meow)

and the loser-mayor
of whatever team loses
(OH GOD NOT FARMERSVILLE NOT FARMERSVILLE PLEASE NOT FARMERSVILLE)

has to disgrace himself by wearing a jersey of the other town's team.
and it's only a disgrace, of course, if my father has to don a princeton jersey
 in honor of his word.
which, in that case, actually, dad, you don't actually have to do this.
just run.
if we lose,
 just run, far, FAR away
and never return.

it would be undoubtedly better than putting on a Princeton Meow-Meow jersey.
