Well, all the baseball talent in the family is in one kid.

-Well, Mike...am I wrong?
- (long pause) Damn it.
For the last two years, I've kept the family sports news off this blog. However, at this time, I think an exception can be made. I'd like to extend a YCS congratulations to my brother Dave (pictured at right with a monkey on his head), who was selected in the 21st Round of Major League Baseball's First-Year Player Draft by the Los Angeles Dodgers.
No word yet on whether the hard-throwing right-hander from Burr Ridge will sign with the Dodgers for next season or return to SLU for his senior year.

That's Awesome! Congrats!
Ditto.
My ill-informed, irresponsible advice: Sign! Sign! Sign!
Congrats man, that's a hell of an accomplishment for your bro and your family. Either way your brother has a good choice, getting a degree from a solid Jesuit school or starting his career and hopefully having a chance to start the climb through a major league farm system.
Outstanding news, and congrats. He looks like Matt Murton.
Wow... I guess all redheads look the same to you, huh Paul? What a blatantly hairist comment.
If you ask me, he looks exactly like Sherman from Rocky and Bullwinkle. Or maybe Carol Burnett.
Awesome news. What year is he in in school? And, have you weaseled a way into being his agent yet?
Nevermind, I'm retarded, he's a junior this year as you mentioned in the post. My less irresponsible advice - don't sign!
Hold out for more money!
The next Paul LoDuca!
