From the mouths of babes...

KMOX sports director Tom Ackerman is a huge supporter of the St. Louis Sports Commission and its Sportsmanship Initiative. He's helped us with multiple trivia nights, golf tournaments, the Musial Awards and countless other events. Tom knows what sports means to the St. Louis region and he certainly understands what sportsmanship is all about.

His parenting skills aren't too shabby, either. Check out the tweet he posted early Wednesday morning:

Driving home from the Cards game last night, I listened to the Kings tie the Blues.My 6-year-old: "So everyone gets to play more, right?"

To put things in perspective, the St. Louis Blues hosted the Los Angeles Kings in Game 1 of their first round Stanley Cup playoff series on Tuesday night. St. Louis dominated most of the contest only to have the Kings come back and tie the game late to force overtime.

Rather than get upset that the hometown team may let one slip away, the younger Ackerman was happy that there would be more hockey - that everyone got to play a little more. Keep up the good work with the little one, Tom. More play never hurt anyone.

For all you homers out there, the Blues did win 2-1 in overtime.
