So it's an aesthetic thing because of the color and of course it's also about the image being something they see their father adores, so they in turn gravitate towards it. In time as they hopefully like watching games with me, I'll tell them all about the greats of the game, Mick included.
That's great. I envy you your position in fatherhood.
