"Boca or River?
my father should have never been happier that the very day I was born. He always said that even if it was baby, just had not expected the end of the day to register as a member of Boca.
was born on a Thursday. That Sunday I played at the Bombonera Boca my dad took my card to show to all your bar. I got curious so many gifts: shirts size 00 blue and gold, towels and even a bottle with the club crest. They say that my grandmother made a huge cake in the shape of court and twenty comics in the middle of a party that won ... Boca. Upon returning from the field, the bar made at home a double celebration: the neat two-nil of the party and the birth of this new glory, now the youngest fan of the best club in the world. Dad was
plan to compete at all times with each of the rest of your bar. And since it was first becoming a father, with time and new births had to endure the fence that was supposed to overcome their obsessions: everyone tried it became clear that each of the babies was incorporated Boca than any other. I wore
accordingly. It is unclear whether it was the second or third word I spoke. The first was "Abu", as my grandmother raised me while the old went out to laburar. And before you say a parent, it does appear that stammered "Mouth." And they say that as I walked, the first thing my dad did was put a ball at my feet. Blue and gold, of course. These were the lanes
by my first childhood happened without uneasiness over, with great pleasure father.
When I had just turned five, my grandmother, who as I was who took care of me every day, suffered a major economic downturn. His house was mortgaged, he ended up being finished and should go live with his son. My uncle was a great guy, a bachelor who's thrilled with the idea of \u200b\u200bgoing to live at home and stop having housing problems. Contributed the rest of the family to persuade her, as my old gracefully did not bring home a pretty old stuck, who always gave me the impression that my father did not swallow much.
The beginning of that year was very significant in my life was to start preschool and spend much of their day in the new home of my grandmother.
All this should not have major family, except the small matter that my uncle was a fanatical football fan poisoned ... River ... Everyone in the family always worked together so that the meetings did not sit together with my dad and uncle. Although since they met, thirty years before, few were the times he had been badly twisted, with blows, police and even threats of criminal prosecution. It was not long
that made me very, very attractive to spend their days in that house. My uncle had installed a professional foosball, and in general we finished simulating always classic in which he made of Boca River and me.
But one day Grandma flu, and his delicate rather give it to me and my uncle take care of her for it. But the grandmother was strong, and some tea and aspirin cured, and slept most of the day. That's how those days began to be more fun yet, because I was under the care of my uncle. That I first began to take the club, then to the court ... River!. With all the warnings of the case: I was asked to swear I would not ever tell my father. Eye
five years began to be moved by everything: the dimensions of that club and its stadium, the rapid integration achieved with the groups of kids my age. My uncle had convinced me never to mention in this place or my capacity as a member of Boca, and paternal major sporting tastes.
One thing I certainly never forgive me my father was the first game I saw in a field outside the River, playing at home against Belgrano de Cordoba. My uncle had taken me back to my family, and certainly knowing the tantrum that could be causing my father. That was another event
decision-making my life was to witness a game that I do not reach the eyes, mouth, pores. Unintentionally, I realized something almost magical was happening inside me: I was already River. With the first goal I hugged my uncle and I remember that as a moment of a primitive great great happiness.
So my preschool had elapsed, a period of growth in every way. But you know that starting the primary does anybody believe it is a man. It was also my case, so I decided not to hide more to my father all that was happening. But what I think legitimate, I think it was very good solution. Above all, the way I chose to express it:
- Dad: I have good news for you: not only am from Boca, but I am also of River.
course: I imagine someone from the fanaticism closed (more than any known to the reader, eh?) Seeing a louse that poses something of this spirit ... Impossible to believe ...
My dad thought of a worst-charged black humor, orchestrated by his accursed brother, a misinterpretation of a fool, or, finally reached the end of his days.
already great, my mom told me that, then, the old man said he had accepted a child whore, thief or Mughals, but I had heard of my mouth had been a shock hardly could overcome the rest of his life.
- Only a fool can be of two clubs, but if these two clubs are also Boca and River, the farmer of such a thing is a pervert, a pervert and a deviant. And that is my hijooooo! - This exaggerated adjectives is just a small sample of the kind of fevered monologue in which he experimented for a sweet time my father who would listen.
Anyway. Confess that after I was happy because that was what he really felt: Boca loved because they knew nothing else since he was born, and I enjoyed River because now I knew enough, I fell very good. As recognized bigamous husbands true, I had fallen in duplicate form, unable to choose just one party.
- can not have two homelands, two religions or two mothers. Can not be a fan of both clubs! -Tried in vain to convince the old man. Clear: after putearme, and mourn fajarme drunk, accused of treason.
I went through this labyrinth full of accusations, unscathed was thrilled! And by the way, was gaining experience in how it should move in this swampy area of \u200b\u200bthe dual sport. At first I noticed that my happiness (and my survival) depended on how far the strategic concealment me to move in each room: not telling Boca's crazy for me River, and hide my opinion bostero millionaires. Little easy, but practical. Growing
was giving me knowledge that would support my tastes with various excuses, and even quite rational justifications. The old man used to oppose his crutches on that "can not have two homelands, two religions or two mothers" to yell at him he was not only Argentina but had been Italian, or remember the existence of mixed marriages between Jews and Christians or that there are two mothers in the case of adopted children: biological and adoptive.
course my growth with those convictions was a constant reproach for my father. At each time she accompanied the court had to bear not only their grumbling, but the looks that you discovered, which was too obvious that he thought he had fathered a traitor.
Among my friends, at first was a rarity that, like everything else, at last assimilated. I was the rare but, of course, not sooo weird. In the neighborhood had been detected a gay, the father of another who was in jail for a scam and had to stay, a sister who was pregnant at thirteen, in order ... I was becoming less appealing ... And given my functionality (sometimes was on one side, sometimes the other), for the purpose of discussing and bloating, supporters of either club suited them ...
Over time, my dad seems to also accommodate the idea. Until her second child was also male, and it seems he could adjust his plan, and not leave no room for chance. This new boy would unquestionably Boca. "De Boca Juniors", dammit.
And regarding my case, the day seems to lower the arms, but every time we went at them, returning all arguments of those who consoled only real existence of another law Boca as my brother, very clear that was a "pure" Boca.

With Grace we met from very small, and both suspected that what we came solid, strong and we end up getting married. Something I always wanted two, so no big news about it: we fulfill our own self-fulfilling prophecy.
The first time my father heard of my athletic extravaganza, trembled. Then tell me who cared about what the future might find her daughter with a guy like me, who could ultimately be as unsafe after that, and was deported two passions, to do the same in the field of love. And that his daughter should share with other or-worse, as is very common and in many cases, with others.
however, eventually began to realize that their fears were quite unfounded, and at that point I cared little football, overwhelmed by a stressful laburo adult commitments would assume mortgage, car payments and saving for holidays.
Then came day when, unfortunately for my dad and my uncle went with my father to an independent party at home against Hurricane.
And, yes, now I'm from Independiente.
