Today Elliott made his first appearance at the church adult basketball night that I run at our church. I didn't introduce him as my son. He and one of his friends (also from church) came so I just said they were a couple of high school guys from church. And he did well! He had some good shots, some good moves, made a few baskets, had a steal or two, and generally represented well. When the night was mostly over I told some people he was my son. They were impressed. And for the record, the old man did pretty good as well. I have said that I could pick any two players that come out (usually about 15), add their ages together, and I would still be older than them! But when you get older, you don't play harder - you play smarter. And I do fine. Also for the record: Elliott has more skills already than I ever did. It was a proud night for me.
