Benedict Arnold

To make the Eagles' loss even more painful for Joel, Ben enthusiastically cheered for the Cardinals throughout most of the game. And when I took him upstairs to bed, I said, "Go give Daddy a kiss goodnight, he is sad that the Eagles lost." And Ben said loudly, "Well I'm not! I'm a Cardinals fan!"

As I got him ready for bed though he suddenly seemed sorry for his traitorous behavior. "When you go downstairs," he said, "tell Daddy I really did want the Eagles to win. I just got confused. They both had birds on their helmets."
