Doe Tubs Doe!

It's been a while since I've posted, and it'll likely be some time before I post again. It's certainly not because baseball has been boring lately.

We've had some exciting young players called up from the minors - including professional body-builder Mike Stanton, former guitar-rocker Carlos Santana and god-amongst-men Stephen Strasburg. This is what happens when 38-year-old journeymen are no longer allowed to stick needles in their butts.

We've seen 3 perfect games thrown since my last post and one of those nullified by one of the worst calls in the history of the game. (Side note: Armando Gallaraga's heart-breaking effort against the Cleveland Indians embodied all that this blog stands for - and is under consideration for official Imperfect Game mascot status.)

We've even had a minor league baseball team refuse to take their traditional practice swings prior to game because they're taking a stand against "BP".

Unfortunately, all that and more has fallen by the wayside as I celebrate the birth of my second child, Reid Michael Powers. I'm afraid there is just too much to do at home to worry about blogging. After all, the trick to ensuring that they become Cub fans for life is getting to them when they're young.

As the audio file below shows, it certainly has worked for my 2-year-old daughter, Allegra.
