1. Mike Riley covers his mouth before he sneezes/throws up/both.
2. Bo Pelini failed his "Lion King" Broadway audition. Mike Riley knows his limitations.
3. Mike Riley is that cool grandpa who'll take you to the batting cage and to ice cream after. Thanks Gramps!
You can't even say Bo Pelini's name OUT LOUD. That's not good grandparenting.
4. Look at that smile. LOOK AT IT. Get Crest WhiteStrips (TM) on the phone!
5. Mike Riley understands the rules of "No Take-Backsies." First rule of the playground, Bo! Sheesh...
