The other, that SOS' presence would distract from Jack's achievement, does IMO, at least sound plausible. Steve is the undisputed star and star attraction of that family, and that's never going to change.
There’s Jack’s version too, and it doesn’t portray SOS in a glowing light. In case you missed it, it was along the lines, “My old man wouldn’t come to my 100th presentation because the club sacked him.”
“Why don’t you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don’t you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don’t you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?” Oddball
