Happy Father's Day!

I wonder how many members of the community are fathers? Let's take a poll and find out. I promise this is not some sort of consumer survey for marketing purposes. I'm just curious.

Going to the St Louis Cardinals game with my father today.

Baseball makes the world go 'round, or at least in my world it does.

Happy Father’s Day to you to John, and to all the other’s that frequent your nifty site.

Actually...

As any thinking person knows, gender and biology are both irrelevant to parenthood. Single parents have to play both Mom and Dad; stepfathers and stepmothers are just as important to a child if they are an active participant in their lives.

I love how there’s only one vote for “I’m a female”

My Guys: Gillies, Pacheco, Drabek, Verlander, Ozuna, A Salcedo, S Rodriguez, and others.

Interesting

Though at this time still a small sample size (110), I’m surprised the #’s are so close; I thought there would be far fewer Fathers…Happy Fathers Day John!

demographics

The demographics of this website, based on past research…a huge group of 18-24 year old males with spare time on their hands…then another large group of 35-44 year olds. I’m assuming most of the fathers are in the latter group.

Baseball is my escape from reality as my wife likes to inform me lol. It is something that me and my 6 year old twins can share the love of and we go to quite a few minor league games both here and on vacation.
