it's okay that they lost

Congratulations.

Jesus, was EVERYONE born on August 27th except me?

My brother’s birthday was yesterday. I was glad to fork over a sixer of Guinness for him to celebrate.

One day, David Backes and Albert Pujols will combine forces to become the most awesome piece of violent force known to man.

I have three friends with that birthday.

It is really close to nine months after New Years day, or

just a bit over nine months from Christmas.

C'mon you Redbirds, lets prove em' wrong, again!

Technically speaking,

pregnancy is roughly ten months.

August is the 8th month,

but I’m still undecided on whether the new millenium started with 2000 or 2001.

Average pregnancy, conception to birth, is 38 weeks (8 months, 3 weeks) = 266 days.
August 27 is the 239th day of 2009.
266 – 239 = 27 days before December 31 (day 0 for counting into 2009).
Conception ~= December 4, 2008.

At least "Busch" . . .

. . . instead of that middle name you gave li’l Avery.
You might, however, say “Avery” ~= “aviary” = Busch.

Congratulations to you and Avery’s mom!

Congratulations!!

Its a great thing to be a dad to a Cardinal Fan. Just wait till you’re chasing him around the stadium in Jupiter during ST, trying to get him to run on the playing field so you have a perfectly acceptable excuse to meet Pujols. Enjoy.

Congrats!

Good thing you started him on the right track, too. Welcome to the Cards club, kid!

Tom and destr, does the uni include . . .

. . . that Ronnie Belliard 2006 World Championship do-rag? (Or was his red?)

Belli just got traded from Washington (.246 in 187 AB) to the Dodgers. Sunday in his first AB as a Dodger, he hit a HR (1 for 8 since).

Not to steal any thunder but here's a picture of my recent son

Adorable, no? When he’s robot overlord someday, I’ll tell him not to work your kid too hard!

(Congratulations! Hope mom and baby continue to be well.)

Well, no matter how he turns out you can be sure of one thing:

you at least set him on the right path. Seriously though, that picture makes me a little less cynical towards the world and believe me when I say it takes a lot to do that.
