"Greatest Generation Dads. Fought in the Big One, never mentioned it, worked hard, could bench-press a Rottweiler while staring it down, able to fix a car with a wrench and two paper clips. The voice of authority, but not for authority's sake. Disinclined to handle the mushy stuff. Not flummoxed by it, but it's hard to really connect with your kid's tears over a broken 45 rpm record when your baseline for human tragedy is, oh, Anzio." - James Lileks

A Love Letter To Chase Utley

Dear Chase:

I hope you don't mind me writing so often! I left some messages on what I think is your number (you wouldn't BELIEVE what I had to do to get it), but you haven't called. I know you're SUPER busy, but I just wanted to hear your voice, you know?

I was so proud to hear you hit your tenth home run yesterday! You're really having a SUPER AWESOME season. So much better than that Ryan Howard guy who made them give him all that money. Ten million dollars, and his OPS is .652? Ridiculous!

I shouldn't tell you this, but today at lunch I wrote "Mrs. Matthew Utley" all over the cover of my notebook. It just looks so PERFECT, you know? I mean, it just DOES!!! right?

Anyway, I just wanted to say HI! Write or call back soon! Or, you know, look me up on Facebook, I would TOTALLY friend you but I can't find you. Not sure if you're not on there, or what. How could someone not be on Facebook? It's like 2008 or something! Ha ha!

Love,

Me
