OT -- Another new Cubs fan very soon

by Worf on Sep 21, 2009 5:47 PM CDT

Many of you know that Mrs. Worf the evil Cardinals fan is pregnant. We are entering our 38th week and she is 3 cm dilated and 50 percent effaced (meaning the barrier to the opening he will pass through is getting wider and weaker)

So, it could be any day now. I was gone most of the day dealing with last-minute baby stuff and we could be leaving tonight (or in two weeks... it's up to the little brat)

His name is not, as I've said earlier, Andre Dawson Worfington, but his name -- I looked this up this afternoon -- will be a combination of last names of players who have killed the Cubs. See if you can guess.

His first name is the last name of player who played 200 games against the Cubs, with the last one being in 1987. He hit .329/.388/.517 against us.

In his last game against the Cubs, he hit an RBI sac fly and his team won 4-3.

His middle name is the last name of a player who pitched 17 games against the Cubs and went 10-4 with a 3.71 ERA and a .210 BAA.

In his last game against the Cubs, in 1980, he pitched 5 innings and his team won 7-1.

To all that have wished us well, thank you.

and you forgot

to mention another Packers fan.

:-D

Best of luck and health to mama and baby. You’ll be fine. Early congrats from a dad of 3 to another dad to be.

Thanks, bob

I’m STILL right about Cutler — although he had a great game. Jeff George did too!

I’ll trash-talk with you when I can. I may have to do it from work. The wife will curtail some of my mindless ranting after work because of little Worf.

I'm glad to run some smack

whenever you are up to it.

Nice game by the Pack yesterday. With that loss and the blowup of MB, you must have been in rare form. Surprised the wife didn’t go into labor.

Cutler is the new Montana. Just thought I’d throw that out there for ya!

Hopefully that gave you a grin!

Oh man...

All I can say is that Aaron Rodgers will not finish the season if that’s all the protection he can get.

Hopefully, this is just one of those games that happen in the NFL.

If Cutler is the new Montana, I will fellate a rat.

leave your college pranks out of this discussion.

And I will hold you to that!

by socalbob on Sep 21, 2009 9:13 PM CDT up reply actions

Only Worf...

…would include the phrase “fellate a rat” in a discussion regarding his soon-to-be-born child.

In all seriousness, congratulations to you and your wife. Best wishes on a swift and hassle-free delivery.

More clues!

Neither player is in the Hall of Fame, although there is a strong case for the hitter.

I congratulate you and wish you well, brother.

But I would have to say that

she is 3 cm dilated and 50 percent effaced (meaning the barrier to the opening he will pass through is getting wider and weaker)

is pretty much the last thing I expected to read on here tonight and is likely to put me off my dinner. Thanks for that.

Dude...

I have watched doctors do things to my wife that should involve a $150 dinner and a dozen roses.

We have no modesty or shame left.

If Mrs. Worf has a C-Section

Don’t look. Really. I’m not kidding. I didn’t mean to, but when they told me to go over to the table with the baby, I had to cross the operating room and there was my wife’s guts all over the table.

And don’t think you’re not going to have one. I mean, you probably aren’t, but I was in the exact same position you’re in now 20 months ago. My Wife was dilated and 70% effaced and then the baby didn’t come. After 11 days late, we found out she was breech. C-Section time.

I wish someone had told me to prepare for a C-Section. Well, someone did, but we didn’t listen.

But little Maddie was delivered healthy and happy and she’s doing great.

by Josh Timmers on Sep 22, 2009 5:40 PM CDT up reply actions

Really?

I saw both and would much rather watch the C-section opposed to natural. I was ok to the doctor reached for the scapal(however you spell) and sliced downward!

My wife is having a great time

telling her girlfriends that she thinks I’m going to pass out.

The only thing I’m really not too up for is her pooping on the table. Apparently, the pushing thing manages to get it all out…

Warning

They will tell you to be right beside her, comforting her. Don’t do it. Stay out of arm and especially hands reach! You will be sorry if you don’t!

Oh, you'd better

get used to poop. OK, baby poop is not nearly as bad as adult poop, but it does have a tendency to come at much more inconvenient times.

I’ll never forget the time my daughter sprayed her poop all over three nurses.

Are you sure about the first Cub Killer Worf

Tony Gwynn is the only guy I can find that had a sacrifice RBI in a 1987 4-3 Cubs loss. Alas I don’t know how to find
career BA Vs team. The only thing about Gwynn though is that was not his last game against the Cubs, he played in one
the next day.

It was the player's last game against the Cubs

the player got four more seasons in the AL…

Actually that wasn't my problem

I just failed to look at more games. 4-3 scores.Hmm Parker as first name, like Parker Stevenson ? Yes he killed the Cubs
but I heard he was much disliked in Pittsburgh.

Ding ding ding!

His name will be Parker Richard

Dave Parker is the hitter and J.R. Richard is the pitcher.

I think Jessica was the only one who researched it. :)

Congrats, Worf

and good luck. Although some people would consider turning your kid into a Cubs fan tantamount to child abuse. :)

Mrs. Worf the Evil Cards Fan

Will have her say as well.

The kid will probably hate us both and root for the Astros.

I pushed hard for Dawson. I finally had to admit that it was a Cub and not the guy from Dawson’s Creek.

So, she went from thinking I was gay to realizing it was a Cub thing
