Notes on Raising Your Kid to Be an All-Star. Tuesday, November 11, 2008. Source of Fandom: Ta-Nehisi Coates. One of my favorite political bloggers this year was The Atlantic's Ta-Nehisi Coates, who also happens to plug his sports fandom regularly. Here's a post from him today. About how a kid from Baltimore became (and remains) a Cowboys fan. Think he'd appreciate my fandom-by-marriage? Posted by Dan Shanoff. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Because your kid ain't LeBron.

Varsity Dad: June 2009
http://www.varsitydad.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Notes on Raising Your Kid to Be an All-Star. Tuesday, June 30, 2009. Not Your Dad's Fandom (Or Yours Either). Lake The Posts expands on a point that I make regularly: Fans under 17 (or under 25, etc) have a vastly different frame of reference than those of us in our 30s (or older). Consider that someone under the age of 30 has zero first-hand recollection of something you find as life-defining as, say, the '85 bears or "Game 6" of the 1986 World Series. "Magic and Bird? Maybe that is obvious. Maybe i...

Notes on Raising Your Kid to Be an All-Star. Monday, November 30, 2009. Varsity Dad in the New York Times. For those who missed it yesterday, there was a terrific Varsity Dad experience in the New York Times sports section: An article written by me about taking my older son to his first basketball game. If you saw the print edition, you may have seen Gabe's smiling face taking up the top quarter of the page.) It was fun to write and a thrill to see in print (and online). More soon.

http://www.varsitydad.com/2011/05/drew-magary-on-dad-strength.html
Notes on Raising Your Kid to Be an All-Star. Tuesday, May 24, 2011. Drew Magary On "Dad Strength". Deadspin's Drew Magary was sent this question by a reader: "My first child is due the day after Thanksgiving. When do I get dad strength? Then grabbed her and lifted her out of the tub. And she knew right at that second that I WAS NOT TO BE F#$%ING TRIFLED WITH. And then the kid tries to retaliate and starts slapping your leg and shit and you just laugh in their face. MWAHAHAHAHA! YOU THINK THAT HURTS ME?

Notes on Raising Your Kid to Be an All-Star. Monday, January 12, 2009. 1-Year-Old Knows Her Blazers. Very sweet, particularly "Kobe sucks.". Either Gabe's first word was "Tebow" - or I have just convinced myself it was. (Either way, it was one of his FIRST words.). Posted by Dan Shanoff. Thursday, January 08, 2009. Better Dad Than I Am. Logan Tebow Bradley. I tip my cap to you, sir. The best I could manage with Kid No. 2 was a first name that anagrams to "J. Noah". Posted by Dan Shanoff.
