Disclaimer: Bobby isn't mine. ..sigh
Summary: He implied that he stopped playing basketball because it didn't bring him approbation from his father. But if we could only take a peek at Bobby's diary, we might discover something a little different.
Dear Diary,
It's true I was pained
By my father's disdain
As he watched me cavort
On the basketball court -
In Dad's mind, it was football that reigned!
And my pride found it hard
Forever being a guard
Cried my beloved coach and mentor
"Goren's too short for a center!"
Those words left my young psyche scarred.
I pray no one's guessed
What I've never confessed
My stats were abysmal
So my prospects were dismal
With the girls - who were less than impressed.
