Just cause Joey's white and the son is black doesn't mean he can't be the father. There's a few white guys that have knocked up black women before.

I'm just sayin...

Lock the thread now, we cannot have any comments about race here. You should know that guys. I am ashamed that anyone is even making jokes about this.

Peace

You'd be surprised. I've seen extremely contrasting pigmentation between parents and their biracial children.

Oh you silver tongued devil. You have such a way with words. Sheesh!

PS - True story. Several yrs ago I was pressed into service to call my son's Rec Game (his grandparents were there too). First "T" I ever gave in my life was on him for slammin the ball in frustration.

PSS - The ride home from the game was pretty quiet.....whoda thunk?

You Could Hear Crickets Chirping, In The Daytime ...
Low Little League minors, a step above T-ball. Coaches coach a base, and act as a base umpire. I'm the third base coach. My son singles to right field. Next batter singles to right field. First base coach yells to my son to go for third base. I'm yelling, and waving my arms, for my son to round second and come to third. Right fielder cleanly picks up the ball and throws a strike, on a few hops, to third base. I yell, and signal, for my son to slide. He executes a perfect slide, but I still call him out. As grunwar already stated, "The ride home from the game was pretty quiet". Officiating your own kid's game is always a lose, lose, situation, always.

I had the pleasure of calling a "T" on my younger son during an adult rec game (yea, I know) a few years ago. I knew he had a game that night, and he knew I was officiating, but it never dawned on either of us that it would be the same league, as he knew I normally did not do adult league games. (Grunewar, it was at the "Y" in Reston -- don't know if they still have that league. BTW, grunewar and I are in the same association, but don't think we have ever met. I was inactive the last year because of knee problems.) Anyway, I was lead and my son drove the lane and ran right over the defender -- easiest call of the night. Not a peep from my son. After the game (middle of 3), he came over and said "I'll have to call Mom and tell her that I didn't think you would call that on me", and smiled. I smiled right back and told him "I guess I''ll have to tell her that I didn't think you were dumb enough to try it." He just laughed about it.

Neat story, but I don't follow.
