Rumor has it

He is planning to deliver the child himself by issuing it a single dirty look visible through the womb, and calmly saying, “It’s time, infant.”. The child will crawl out, cut its own umbilical cord, clean itself up, and begin work on the next great American novel.

I heard that the baby was born wearing #30 on its back.

And he shall be Levon

and he shall be a good man
and he shall be Levon
In the tradition of the family plan

He was born a pitcher to an ace on St Patricks day
When the New York Times said “ARod’s Dead”
And the season’s begun
Ted Lilly had a son today

Actually, it doesn’t say whether it’s a boy or a girl. But if it’s a girl, she’ll be the first woman in the majors.

According to this, the Lillys had a son. Congratulations to them.

Congratulations is right

But of course, all the cool dads are having girls these days. :-) But Ted’s so cool he can start a new trend.

aw-mine is 18

but considering that the two of us just finished watching Beauty and the Beast together I guess you could say she’s still my baby too. Two is a fun age. Enjoy…the time flies.

Congrats to the Lilly's

I just hope the Cubs resign him, if not I will miss the Lillyisms.

by Grockcubs on Mar 15, 2010 9:05 AM CDT reply actions  

now that's what should happen

Lilly should show up at opening day at Wrigley and climb to the top of the score-board, and then hold the child up. THE CROWD ROARS!

Forget all that other stuff. I gotta believe.

Has anybody counted back nine months

To find out if Ted won or lost the ballgame that day?

Did you know...?

Ted himself was born in a log cabin he built with his bare hands.

I predict that...

the Lilly infant will win the 5th starter spot out of spring training. From what I heard, Larry Rothschild donated several towels to Ted to assist in the delivery.
