(My son, a second grader, is at the first soccer practice of the season. I had spoken with the coach once already and so I knew what to expect. My husband is super competitive, and is surveying the team.)
Husband: “Wow, he isn’t the tallest this year.”
Me: “Yeah, they combined the second and third grades, and his team only has a couple second graders.”
Husband: *eyes narrowing* “He will crush them!”
Me: “No, no, no! They’re a team!”
Husband: *expression not changing* “He will crush them! …with teamwork and fair play!”
