"Do you ever get caught playing video games as a grown man?

A neighbor might pop in or your father in law or the pest control salesman. And there you are 40 year old loser sitting on your couch slaying dragons.

I go to great lengths to never be caught by anybody playing video games. Because once you hit a certain age you're supposed to be man. You're supposed to wear a belt and button down shirt. You're supposed to be watching fox news (nbc nightly news) and talking about the stock market, bears bulls people from Connecticut! Property values, taxes etc.

Video games are supposed to be a secondary thing. Don't spend too much time on it, it's fun but all of your real focus should be on your 401K.

BYU Fans! Be Careful to Avoid this Fate

This is what happens to some universities. And it's tragic.

They take their eye off the ball off the primary thing for any school...football and start caring a little too much about a secondary thing...basketball.

And they go and accidentally become the dreaded...basketball school.

You think Michigan State wanted to be a basketball school? No they wanted to beat Michigan in the big house! Bubba Smith, Kirk Gibson...but they accidentally became a basketball school in the late 70s because because Magic Johnson turned down John Wooden to stay home and play in East Lansing. They've been a basketball school ever since. It's fine. It's just not the primary thing in life. Football is.

For the first time in history BYU fans are more excited about the upcoming basketball season then they are football. Careful! 'For Wide is the gate and broad is the way that leadeth to becoming a basketball school!'"
