Father arrested for forcing son to wear Green Bay Packers jersey

London, UK - Upset that his 7-year-old son wouldn't wear a Green Bay Packers jersey during the team's playoff victory Saturday, a man restrained the boy for an hour with tape and taped the jersey onto him.
Adam C. Faust was cited for disorderly conduct in connection with the incident with his son at their home in Notting Hill.
The 26-year-old Faust was arrested Monday after his girlfriend told authorities about the incident. Faust was taken to the county jail and, after smoking 17 cigarettes and crying excessively, paid a fine of $186 and was released.
Faust's girlfriend filed a restraining order Wednesday, so Faust will not be able to have contact with his family. Officer Craig Smith said other domestic issues have surfaced, including the time Faust tried to duct tape Converse Chuck Taylor's to the boy's feet, the instance where Faust almost choked the boy when he refused to wear 9 hemp necklaces and the time when Faust erupted on the boy when the boy said `No' to drugs.
The boy, Samurai Kalidescope Different Faust, refused to wear the jersey Saturday, when the Packers beat the Seattle Seahawks in a playoff game, Smith said. Smith said the incident sounded strange when reported at first, but Piper took pictures with her cell phone and that type of evidence is difficult to dispute.

"I just want to be a normal kid, dad." I can't tell how hard that is for me to hear from my own kin.
In my defense I have struggled with Samurai's attempts at normalcy for too long. He has never understood the importance of wearing several layered thermal long sleeve shirts under his ironic short sleeve T's.
I should have adopted an African Pigmy child like I had planned all along.
oh, and I changed the settings on the blog, so only we can comment now.
I can totally picture this happeneing. My favorite line was this though:
"smoking 17 cigarettes and crying excessively"
I can totally picture that image.

Sorry about the Packers Faust...
I'm not sure what you are referring to Kevin?
Oh, and does anyone know what happened in the Mavs/Heat Finals?
The Mavs got up and then crumbled and were swept like the true team they are....
When Austin Croshere (sp) is your verbal leader...well
The Packers will be a force next year....they are better than Dallas.
C Woo WOOOD
