It's that time again. Showboat and his friends are back to football practice, but this time for high school. They are going to be some of the first students ever at the new high school that is opening up in August. My husband likes to tell me the stories of the things that Showboat and his friends say. You can tell a lot about how boys and girls think and act by simply listening to their conversations.
Here's a few little tidbits for Fatherhood Friday. :) For those of you new to The Football Confessionals and those of you who have read the previous ones, there is a new character. From time to time, there can be a new one depending on who my husband has to take to practice. Today I'm introducing you to Spaz. He's a wired little fella. LOL
Spaz: Do you know those shoes Crocs?
FBCGANG: Yeah.
Spaz: Did you know you can eat them if you boil them?
FBCGANG: Really? That's cool. (seriously, they said this.)
************************************************
Butterfingers: Cardio is good for football.
Rock: That's working your legs, right?
Butterfingers: Yeah.
************************************************
Showboat to Butterfingers: Your zit always grows in the same spot. It's a ghandi dot.
Butterfingers: Everybody gets zits. When Rock gets them, he doesn't even know what to do with them. He doesn't even know how to pop them.
Rock: Yes, I do!

I'm new to football confessionals and this is just hysterical! Sometimes peaking into the mind of a boy can be scary!
What? Are you trying to tell us that you didn't know the dough used for digiorno pizza is made from boiled Crocs. LMAO. Kids.
You brought back some memories of my own youth here. Enjoyed it.
Flash 55 as an introduction. Wonderful. So creative.
Loved the football chatter as well.
Mine's posted. As always, scroll down below my show n tell, or click on the link provided at the beginning!! Happy weekend.
You know that dragons find all kinds of shoes good to eat and you don't have to boil them.
Our 55 is posted please make us one of the few.
LOL Ciara this was hysterical. Do I dare try and boil my sneakers? hmm.
I would by laughing out loud in the car if I heard this conversation...
hee hee Lotsa fun! Kids crack me up! I'm really fighting the urge to not plug my own blog where I talk about funny stuff my kids have said. Oops...
Ciara,
I love it. I get to hear the chatter from my daughters everyday so it is nice to hear the chatter from the boys point of view. My little boy is too little for the interesting zit tales lol. My 55 is up
GEEZ, the pimple popping memories return! Aaaargh!
I work in a High School, I hear these and many more bizarre conversations like them everyday...Sometimes I laugh so hard it hurts. Nice post, you've added a follower!
You know...Some teen-age bantering shouldn't be privy to hot beautiful young Moms such as yourself...
But YAY...You played!!!
Thanks for joining the fun Ciara Mist, and have a Great Week-End!!
Wikipedia says: Yes, Crocs are edible. The shoes are supposedly 100% organic. If you boil them, you can eat em (I wouldn't try it though, unless you're starving out in the middle of nowhere and wearing crocs, then you should do that but...) LOL
Your Football confessional is hysterical! Thanks and have a happy Friday.
This gave me a giggle. Nice job.
I LOVE listening to the boys chat when I'm the chauffeur. Good stuff!
Teenage girls travel in my car, the conversations
haven't changed much since I was their age. Boys,
music, make up, clothes, boys, boys, boys...thanks for the chuckle. :))
Ewww! Can you just imagine what boiled Crocs would smell like?
These are great! Thanks so much for sharing.
Boiling me crocs as I type :)
