That’s frickin Awesome, reminds me of my Granddaughter, I’ve have raised her sense she was 2, it’s been the best time of my life raising her, she is smarter then me already she turned 15 today. She loves wearing Lions gear. And gets me Lions things for my birthday.

It’s easy to see what special guy Bols truly was. And that is one cute kid he has there. She looks pretty good sporting that Bols jersey.

My granddaughter when she was a Kid

She’s adorable. I know Charlie is looking down and smiling. Thanks @Nate for sending that jersey, I hope she cherishes it forever and it makes her think of her grandad.

@The_Kid, you’ve been awesome to have around as well and have helped fill some of the void felt in the Den since your grandfather’s passing.

I wasn’t much older than her when my grandpa died. I don’t have a lot of memories of him, but when I see things like the American flag from his funeral it brings those few precious memories back. I know that jersey will do the same for Charlie’s granddaughter.

Well, shoot.

I guess I have to gladly take the L and tell @CuriousHusker he was right…. “this is the best sports community in the world”

I generally am cynical about communities due to past experiences IRL…. but I am learning a thing or two…..and happy to be less cynical bc of stuff like this. Bravo. Bravo @Nate @Weaselpuppy

One of the best sophomoric joke communities as well. Though that’s a crowded field on the interwebz.
