That boy, Ben Shelton, he sure can play tennis. I seen him on the TV, whacking that ball like nobody’s business. Reminds me of my old man when he used to swat flies with the newspaper. But who are his folks? They must be somethin’ special to raise a boy like that.
Ben Shelton Parents
I heard folks sayin’ his parents, they know a thing or two about tennis. His daddy, Bryan Shelton, I reckon he used to play, too. And his mama, Lisa Shelton. I think that’s right. They got some history in that there tennis game. They met playin’ that sport, hit it off, and bam! They got married and gave us that Ben boy.
That Ben Shelton, he’s a good one. Playin’ in them big tournaments, like the one in Australia, and that big one in the US, too. Even won a big one in Japan. Makes a body proud, seein’ a young’un doin’ so well.
- His daddy, Bryan, he played tennis, too.
- His mama, Lisa, she played, too.
- They met playin’ tennis, and got hitched.
- That Ben Shelton, he’s a chip off the old block, ain’t he?
I reckon it ain’t easy, playin’ that tennis. Ben Shelton’s parents, they musta taught him good. Just like my old man taught me how to milk a cow. Takes patience, and a good teacher, that’s for sure. They did good by that boy.
Bryan Shelton, Ben’s Daddy
That Bryan Shelton, he wasn’t no slouch with that racket. Heard he played some big matches. Won some, lost some. Just like life, ain’t it? You win some, you lose some. But you gotta keep on swingin’. He sure did teach that to his son, that’s for certain. I bet he’s proud of his boy, Ben Shelton.
Ben Shelton‘s daddy, Bryan, played some fella named Michael Stich. Some big shot, I reckon. Beat him, too! That must been somethin’. That’s like when I won the pie contest at the county fair. Felt like I could fly! I bet Bryan felt like that, too.
Lisa Shelton, Ben’s Mama
And that Lisa, she ain’t just a pretty face. She knows her way around a tennis court, too. A good woman, that one. Strong, like my Bessie. That cow could kick your teeth in if you weren’t careful. But she had a good heart. I bet Lisa Shelton has one, too.
It takes two to tango, as they say. And it takes two good parents to raise a champion. Ben Shelton, he’s lucky to have ’em. They must have given him something to help him.
I remember when my youngest, Jimmy, wanted to be a rodeo star. We didn’t know nothin’ about ridin’ bulls. But we supported him. Took him to every rodeo we could. He broke a few bones, but he learned a lot. Just like Ben Shelton, learnin’ from his parents.
That Ben Shelton, he’s got a good head on his shoulders. Plays hard, but plays fair. That’s what his parents taught him, I reckon. Just like I taught my kids to be honest, even when it’s hard.
Ben Shelton is a Good Boy
He won that big trophy, that Zeus thing. Must be somethin’ special, that trophy. He’s makin’ a name for himself, that Ben Shelton. And his parents, they must be bustin’ their buttons with pride.
I reckon Ben Shelton‘s parents, Bryan and Lisa, they’re the real winners here. They raised a good boy. A champion. And that’s somethin’ to be proud of, more than any trophy or title. Yep, they did good. Real good. Like a good crop of corn in the summer, they raised a good one. That Ben is going to go far.
That Ben Shelton will be something big. He already is. And his mama and daddy, Bryan Shelton and Lisa Shelton. They’re the reason. Good parents make all the difference. You can see that plain as day in that boy. Keep your eyes on him. He’ll make everyone proud, his folks, especially.
I remember my old man used to say, “The apple don’t fall far from the tree.” And that’s true for Ben Shelton. His parents were good at tennis. He is, too. Maybe even better. Good for him. Good for them all.
Yep, that boy, Ben Shelton, with his tennis-playin’ parents, Bryan and Lisa Shelton, they’re a good bunch. A real good bunch.
