40 years ago this kid would have stabbed his brother over Electric Football -- the game played on a metal vibrating field.
Actually, he would have stabbed the one football player who always went in circles ...

So, the rules of the house is that when you lose a game you have to turn it over to someone else or die!!
Good catch, thanks.
That's exactly what it is, and exactly why I moved my family the hell out of there two years ago.
Ten years ago, it was a garden spot, literally two miles outside of Philadelphia. I had a nine minute train ride to the University of Pennsylvania, fifteen to Center City. The only thing that has slowed its economic decline is an influx of upwardly-mobile homosexuals fleeing the city proper. But that's too little, too late.
Every time we hear about Lansdowne on the news, it's another atrocity. And then we congratulate ourselves.
Odds are Jahmir & Antwan's 'sperm donor' is not in the picture.
We need a one steak knife a month Knife Control Law in Pennsylvania.
If steak was illegal, this wouldn’t have happened.
ROTFLMAO
I call them “sires”.
Although the 1s in KY are much more handsome and clean.

The question I have is.....if there were only the 2 of them present, what was the problem?
Was momma the 3rd player/would-be player? If not, who was? You can BET that more than just the 2 bro’s were present and wanting to play the game......otherwise they’d have just played the game......right?
SOMEBODY else was right there, and involved......momma was in the house, but it doesn’t say if she was there or in another room or what.
You've missed the most horrible part of this story, the developing inner city KNIFE CULTURE!!! All makers of steak knives must immediately be sued out of business. Take heart, however, for responsible parents can do a great deal on their own. They can, for example, insist that their children not go to any homes where the adults are so reckless as to keep steak knives without knife locks and campaign for vitally needed knife control legislation. Remember, IT'S FOR THE CHILDREN!!
I say get tough on the youngsters, if they want to play video games, make them use strictly DOS ones like Wolfenstein or Tomb Raider.

You and me both.
Are you trying to say that if they had been vegans, a grapefruit knife wound wouldn't have been fatal?
Since I wasn’t present, I don’t have an answer for you. But, you ask a good question. Who else was in that house when this went down?

LOL...and your tagline made me spew my drink on my keyboard!
OK. Parental profiling.
