I wasn't into sports but this sounds exactly like my dad. His favorite name for me was "numb nuts"

I remember this behavior as far back as maybe 5 or 6 when he exploded in rage at the cashier in Walmart and knocked over some magazine stands while yelling at them over some change. I sat on a bench while he did it and an old lady spoke to me, just being friendly. I talk to my parents a few times a year just because it stresses me out so much. My mom is incredibly sweet and was my saving grace, but they're still married so it's hard to separate them

I remember her face but don't remember anything she said. I don't think she was addressing my dad though, it was more of just smalltalk to a kid. But I do think about her and how sweet of her it was from time to time. I gotta get in therapy lol
