Chris,

Thanks for the message. My wife and I are expecting our first child in July, so I thought Dads Inc. would be a good educational resource for me. I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions in the coming months.

I bleed Orange! I am a season ticket holder and work closely with the VASF raising scholarship funds for students wishing to attend UT. I am actually listening to the Vandy game online since we cannot get it on TV! I will be in Neyland next weekend for Coach Fulmer's last game. What is your tie to UT?

Daddy Defense

Anyone up for some Adult Kickball?

Hey, Smoosiers, I've been wanting to start an Adult Kickball League for some time now, and I just found out that there's a group already playing here in Indy.
