Instead of dancing, again, heartbroken, “we” have to bring Brittany a pan of lasagna for after tomorrow’s finale. I told her as long as she wasn’t a “Texas Ranger” she’d get it. “Walker, Texas Ranger” was a popular TV show back in the 90s staring Chuck Noris. For the past 15 years, I used this TV title to yell at Brit on the field when I thought she wasn’t running hard enough. I’d leave out the “Walker” and would just yell, let’s go Texas Ranger! Other parents thought I was being encouraging, but Brit knew I was being half encouraging Dad, half asshole. It mostly pissed Brittany off, but she always responded with a burst of energy and rose above the competitiion. I have only referenced “Texas Ranger” once this season, but honestly, I no longer know what I’m talking about. Brittany has become a recognized, high level Division I soccer player that has forgotten more than I know, so I will do my best to sit back, shut up, and enjoy her play.
