My 8 yo nephew decided he was gunna ring uncle Ramps this morning. Sadly for me he rang at about 7.30 when i was sleeping nevertheless he was abit excited...you see after afew years of procrastination about his AFL allegiance it seems the brainwashing conducted by his dad and his uncle has finally paid off.
Nephew Ramps decided during the week he was a Tiger (hes such a good boy :clapping) and he decided that his mother (west coast fan) was trying to lead him astray. Anyways...after getting his old man to buy him a brand spanking new Richmond jumper and a whole host of numbers ... he decided that Uncle Ramps could pick his number, after firstly consulting his dad who suggested no 3, Nephew Ramps decided to rine me and asked what number he should put on his jumper...3 I cried. then he said...thats what Dad said and I said...If your dad reckons its 3 and uncle Ramps thinks it 3...then you should get 3. As he jumped off the phone...I could hear him scream at the top of his lungs...Mum I want No 3. Hes mother was shattered....My brother and I were proud as punch as 8 years of effort had finally paid off. Im so pleased- and so happy he decided this week before we play the weagles next week. :cheers

Well done, Ramps lol
No. 3 sounds like a very wise choice :rollin

Don't tell him how frustrating it can be to follow the Tiges. He'll work that out for himself over the next few years....
