On the surface? Just a little kid making one of those completely irrational little kid statements that'll leave every parent clamoring about his cuteness. However, if you can't relate to this little guy than you don't have sports running through your blood. This kid basically said "hey Doc, I would rather die than become a Michigan fan". That's a level of dedication to his team that I can respect. Hell, this kid probably thinks that Michigan sucks so much that he is convinced the only way to become a Wolverines fan is by a doctor surgically inserting it in your heart. Plus, who hasn't harbored an irrational hatred for a region based solely off it's sports teams. This kid probably doesn't even realize that Michigan is a state. Probably gets that question wrong on his geography test every time. Michigan isn't a region, it's a football team, and it's a football team this kid hates with at the entirety of his soul. That's basically the reason I hate Philadelphia. That entire city is a dumpster fire and I am basing that solely off of my experiences with their sports fans at their sports venues. I have never been to Cleveland. I just assume it's not worth it because they haven't won a championship since The Great Depression. Does anyone view Oakland as anything other than a cess pool of grown men in costumes running around stabbing each other? I know I don't. Like it or not, sports shape the way we view certain areas of the country. So while it's adorable that Ivan thinks a doctor can change his rooting interest, I don't question his line of thinking, because I would rather take my chances with divine intervention than go under the knife at a Penn State affiliated medical center.
Get well soon little man. Football season is right around the corner and the Buckeyes need you at full strength.
