What's the Best Advice Your Father Ever Gave You?
Honor your father this year by posting his sage advice on Patch.com.

Team jerseys are currently unavailable, we’re not in the same time zone and I’ve yet to see his team featured on SportsCenter. And although we can’t get mobile updates on our phones, I can imagine he’s pitching out of his mind. He’s dazzling batters one after the next with his floating knuckleballs and intermittent fastballs, “just to keep them on their toes,” he’d say. And as they walked back to the dugout scratching their heads he would watch them, daring them to look back so they could see him smile. He’s on a long road trip now and I miss him.
