From today’s rundown of Giants-Brave for kids, by the hysterical Jason Gay:

Hopefully Mom and Dad let you watch a bit of the Giants-Braves game, because it was pretty exciting, and it’s lot healthier for you than Monday Night Football. Not sure if Mom or Dad talked to you about the Vikings and Jets, but some grown-up stuff has happened lately with those teams.

See if you can talk Mom and Dad into letting you dress up as Brian Wilson for Halloween. Actually, see if you can talk your parents into letting you be “The Two Brian Wilsons” for Halloween – half Giants closer, half Beach Boys genius. Trust us: you’d win every Halloween costume contest you enter, so long as it takes place in a hipster bar.

Mr. Cox is like Dumbledore – he’s been around so long, he remembers when baseball had two bases and no gloves and playoff games actually finished during the day time. He’ll be missed, though he now has so much more time to babysit you.
