    That is some quality journalism -- either the writer was really desperate to support that point or they are an old member of the BBS. At any rate someone needs to update the Clutchfans wiki page -- also congratulations to @rocketsjudoka for being sourced in a major article.

    I believe we can confirm the answer to this question... YES.

    Since I qualified under the Family and Medical Leave Act, you're ****in' A right I took all 12 weeks that I was entitled to! It was fantastic! My wife let me sleep through the night and I got up with our twins in the morning. I let her sleep in and got them all to my self for a few hours, some of the greatest hours of my life. I hated having to go back to work...I had a hellacious commute which made for long hours and I didn't get to see them much some weeks. My wife quit her job for 6 years to stay home with them. NO lie, I'd have switched places her without a second thought. Trade 8 hours of bullsh!t for spending all day with two little miracles that think the sun rises and sets on you? Who wouldn't??

    I didn't like Boomer when he was a player. I see no reason to change that opinion, now.

    The sex probably occurred in Mid-November. So I don't think he broke the unwritten rules of sex during the baseball season. However, the best practices manual denotes that Sex should only occur in February. And the Birth in November. Keeping it real simple.

    don't hate the player, hate the policy

    not the player's fault for taking advantage of a stupid policy
