Which would you choose? International Soccer or high school basketball?
I faced this dilemma recently. I had a parking pass and media credential
waiting for me at San Diego's Qualcomm Stadium for the big international
soccer match between Mexico and Venezuela. But I didn't go. Mexico ended
up winning 3-1. Instead, I got my Dad in with me to a high school
basketball playoff game between La Jolla and Mission Bay. Mission Bay
took down La Jolla 77-71 and moved on to face St. Augustine in the CIF
Division III Finals at USD's Jenny Craig Pavillion. I guess I'm just
more of a basketball guy than a soccer guy and I figured my Dad being a
graduate of Mission Bay, would get a kick out of it. I also thought
about what would be the better memory down the road? Going to a big
international soccer game by myself or spending quality time with my Dad
at a high school basketball game that just so happened to be his alma
mater?

I hate basketball.

And yet it would still give me pleasure if St. Augustine lost.

Anytime that you spend with your father is always the best choice. Enjoy
the time that you two do have now.
