How could he NOT like Clemson?


All of his life, Harrison has lived and breathed Clemson Tigers. He can recognize a Tiger Paw a mile away. Every Saturday the entire Magnolia family dons their Clemson wear. Last Saturday Harrison put on his Clemson sweatshirt and decided that he didn't want to wear it and wear his non-Clemson blue shirt instead. He was whining and whining about how he didn't want to wear it....blah, blah, blah....then we heard him say, "I don't like the Clemson Tigers." Dan and I both looked at each other devastated and told him "we do not say things like that in this house". It got me thinking....what if he decides that one day he does not want to go to Clemson....oh my, I never thought of that and to make it worse, what if he decides that one day he wants to go to the University of South Carolina???? What ever would we do?..... :)

Oh darling, if he doesn't like Clemson he has to be smart!! It is Gamecocks all the way in my house. We can never move from SC because my children holler "Go Cocks". The rest of the world would never understand. If he goes to USC, he will be that much better off. Although Hubby is going to the Clemson/Boston College game next weekend. Who knows, he may become a fan.

I know what you mean. I'm already bracing myself for a Hokie or worse yet, now that we've moved to TX, an Aggie.

It's just a rebellious phase he's going through. By the time he's 18, I'm sure you will have brainwashed him enough!
