Oh, now you’ve gone and done it!

Jk, I know a lot of people think this way so I’m not going to change any minds, but it is important to note that you’re only passing roughly 25% of your genes to your grandchildren regardless.

If anything, I think culture is the biggest thing when it comes to that stuff.

I'm half white half Cuban, but I identity more with ny Cuban side and that's the culture I grew up with, and that my kids will grow up with (my wife is also Cuban).

I'd love it if my family's culture stays Cuban, but it's not a big deal by any means.

It goes a long way with your kid if you try though.

There are obviously gray areas and extremes when it comes to not fighting all of your kid's battles and not being helicopter parent, and not being outraged at parents and the school... while also teaching your kid how to stick up for themselves and so forth.

But, a little effort towards making things right and going to bat for them (depending on all the things, obviously) can go a long way.... hell the kids of the bully may even thank you.

I mean... wouldn't you want a teacher to inform you if your kid was being stuffed in lockers and what not?

Dennis Rodman paved the way for it in the 90s. No one was giving endorsements and media hype to a defensive rebound specialist who can't shoot when he was in Detroit until the dude started dying his hair crazy colors, piercing everything and wearing wedding dresses. He suddenly became a celebrity and banging chicks like Carmen Electra because of that.
Dennis Rodman could get rebounds like no other that was his only role on the team outside of getting the ball to Jordan and Pippin. He accepted his role on the team doing that.

Ohh I would absolutely be in top of things if I had concerns that my son was the one being bullied (or potentially getting bullied).

When winning you can let the mold grow on your shower shoes.

You’re overrating height like a lot of people do. Same with arm strength. It’s way overblown.
Lol yeah all those short qb's drafted 1st have struggled for no reason obviously!!..them being weak throwing over the middle because they can't see well has nothing to do with it clearly :-)

Exactly. It's like Jim Bouton said in Ball Four. "You're only as smart as your ERA."

Caleb Williams is what happens when you went your entire life without being called a faggot.

My parents are crazy non-confrontational (I somehow don't think that's an issue for you :-)), so their solution was telling me to just ignore it.

And if you don't know anything about bullies... they don't really care if you ignore them.

:-)

I'm the type to tell the bully's dad that if he doesn't resolve it, me and him are going to have problems.

I grew up with a dad that would tell me to punch a bully in the mouth the next time he fucks with me.

Idk shit about your ancestry but I’ve been to Cuba and I’ve been around a lot of Cubans in America so I know there’s a good chance your shit is pretty mixed up anyway. It’s really not uncommon for Latinos to not look a lot like some of their grandparents and that’s pretty normal.

You realize you have a sample size of two, right? Bryce Young was drafted last year. We cannot determine much about him at this point.

Do you have proof that they struggle to throw over the middle because they can’t see?

You might want to keep them out of CP DC or other political areas where bullying is openly celebrated.

To be honest, I don't think even the DC is as bad as young boys can be. As bad as I am, I was 100x worse as a kid/teen.

Drew Brees is both short, slight of build AND had a relatively weak arm and you couldn’t name 10 QBs in the history of the league better than he was.

Dan Marino scored like a 14 on the Wonderlic and Brett Favre was obviously a total dumbass. The only positive note about Tom Brady coming into the league was that he had a plus arm.

Height, like intelligence, or arm strength is just one piece of what goes into making a good NFL QB.
