    they can't control their arms yet. it's like she's aiming for them. And they do have some (instinctive) control. I guess they're not strong enough to do much permanent damage so there won't be much selection pressure, but still. You can get onesies with things to cover their fingers so they don't scrath their faces and eyes, but yeah there isn't a lot you can do about them hitting themselves. we've got a lot of mittens, but she's too good at scraping them off It amazes me how quick Brooklynn can get her socks off. I barely get one on and the other one is popping off.

    wtf? It would appear that he thinks everything on the site must be baseball related ot it's out of line. Which, if you pay attention, is clearly the case. I believe I'm also the 1st person to ever have their kid in their avatar. (Or maybe not if you check the game thread starter from the 4 before today) no. it's just God awful to look at. period... No, it really isn't.

    just nitpicking, but could you possibly use a placenta as your avatar going forward. thanks... Um, that's my daughter. She'll be 3 weeks old tomorrow. Thanks for the advice though. Congrats, I got a 10 week old and she never sleeps. Hope you have better luck with that. Not so much. The last 3 days have been terrible. She wakes up, screams and then eats. She then takes 2 hours to go back to sleep, then wakes up an hour later. Rinse, lather, repeat. I have been living on coffee because she's been so loud all night. Yeah, it really makes me love my job. My girlfriend is like a superhero.

    Never thought Id see this from Vance :D I'm ordering a Jim Edmonds jersey shirt and cutting it off about 3 inches above the navel. Your wife ok with this? I'm ordering her the Cubs thong off ebay... I figured that would go with the cutoff.

    I still wouldn't mind if he could call him "our little guy" ooooh right around August 1st. Why? DeRosa has been better. No, he hasn't. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/stats/batting?sort=avg&split=0&league=mlb&season=2008&seasonType=2&type=reg&ageMin=17&ageMax=51&minpa=0&hand=a&pos=2b&startDate=null&endDate=null At best DeRo and BRob would have been comparable this yr at 2B. Not an upgrade, in that since. He hasn't been as better as it would have cost to get him. Sheesh, I'm getting Carlos Mencia'ed tonight. wasnt sure how to word it, but the point remains true.

    I really wish teams would quit trying to run on Ankiel.

    Tigers get 1st and 3rd one out with Maggs and Miggy coming up. Don't score.

    what did he say about Morrison and Redick when they were drafted? Redick needs to get the hell out of Orlando. He has no future on that team. I think he could become a decent role player, but it has to be the right situation. If he can't play as a spot up shooter on a team with the best low post player in basketball, where would he succeed? the problem is that they already have two perimeter players whose job it is to score in Turkoglu and Lewis. I get that, but shooting is maybe the toughest thing to find in the league. There is no question he could do that. SO why can't he even get on the court? Especially on a team that really doesn't have a two guard. The two you mentioned are still post players. I really think that Reddick is just this generation's Alford.

    I want to think that the Beast will be as good as he looked in college, I keep having Derrick Coleman nightmares. A good player, but not one that ever did what he should have.
