The Good Guys Win

At the time I was supposed to put James to bed, the Raptors game was in the fourth quarter.  James is only five, but he's showing a sincere interest in the Raps.  He knows Chris Bosh, the story of Vince Carter and that the camera will sometimes show a big red dinosaur after a big Raptors basket.  Naturally, I let him stay up late and watch the game.

And what a game!  James watched the good guys win and was thrilled by the post game celebration on the court.  There was the red confetti-like paper falling from the rafters, the flags and a whole lot of cheering and hugging.  We were hugging, too, celebrating the first non-Argo Toronto playoff win in quite some time.

It's 1-1 heading back to Jersey, and the Raps haven't come close to playing their best ball.  I'm feeling good.  James will have plenty of late nights ahead, if we're lucky.
