We’ve found the common ground
in all men’s personalities.

communicate

It’s par for the course...

Just keep your eye on the ball...

The puck...

and my shuttlecock
Nathaniel & Josh:
Hey!
Sometimes, when we watch sports,
we get sad
and we make it seem like
we’re sad about the sports
Josh:
but we’re not really crying
about the game at all
Nathaniel:
who really cares about
a game of basketball
Nathaniel & Josh:
We’re sad about our dads

unless we used
sports analogies

men feel safe with these
empty generalities

Josh:

We're american men
we like all sports
except for soccer
‘cause soccer’s just a bunch
of foreigners running around
Yeah!
