    That's the best Father's Day gift you can get.

    Spread the diaper in the position of the diamond with you at bat.
    Then, fold second base down to home and set the baby on the pitcher's mound.
    Put first base and third together, bring up home plate and pin the three together.
    Of course, in case of rain, you gotta call the game and start all over again.

    Thanks. This morning was great. The kids are too young to shop for gifts so they make stuff and write stories about how much their dad means to them. The best gifts a dad could ask for.

    Re: Happy Father's Day

    My dad is awesome. I didn't fully realize it until I was grown up and he wasn't always around to fix things for me. This morning, he actually gave me a gift instead of the other way around. Things are very rough right now and, once again, he helped me out as he's done all my life. I am going to write him a note right now. I've told him how much I appreciate him, but I don't think I can say it enough. I love my dad so much. I can't imagine life without him. I only hope that someday I can pay him back.

    Happy Dad's Day to all the dads in NYYFans land.

    Ditto. And everyone... please call or go see your dad today. Fatherhood is a dying art these days, and those who do it well deserve tons of kudos and thanks. Someday, your father will be gone and you'll wish you'd spent more time with him. I know I do.
    Thanks for the memories, George. You made the Yankees what they are today... Champions!

    Re: Happy Father's Day

    Palmer, that was a wonderful post. There were times when my Dad was the LAST person I wanted to be around. Why is when we're teens we think we know everything and what is right for us?
    Now I cherish every visit with him.

    Jenn, your Dad sounds like a wonderful man. Don't worry about paying him back ...your love & respect is all the payback he needs..

    Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads,... here, there & everywhere.

    What a beautiful post Palmer. My dad passed away in 1978 and I miss him to this day.

    To those who've tossed a HFD out to all of us on the board who qualify, thank you.

    To you Dads with little ones in your household, enjoy the time you have with them; it goes by very quickly.

    Thought I'd post this, in case anyone missed it. http://www.parade.com/export/sites/d...o-step-up.html It's from yesterday's Parade. Very well done.

    Thanks to all who've wished, and similar wishes to all Dads.

    My sons visited, cooked Ahi Tuna on the grill for me (it has ranged from CocoPuffs to scrambled eggs to the Tuna over the years), and we watched the Yankees lose to Florida. Still, a glorious day.
