Where's My Dad Been?

If you've seen Adam Sandler's "The Waterboy", you may remember the last scene where Bobby Boucher has just married Vicky Vallencourt. To make a long story short, Bobby, the son of a very overprotective mother, finds success on the college football field. In the last scene, Bobby's long-lost father shows up to restart a relationship with his son. Of course, the father's motives are less-than fatherly. He expects his son to be a star in the NFL and he wants a piece of the action.

So why am I bringing up "The Waterboy"? Read this column by Jason Whitlock of the Kansas City Star and you'll see why.

Sometimes life imitates "art".
