Youth baseball coach dad wins the internet

Did you see that viral video of the karate teacher telling his student that it was OK to cry? For us this video is right up there with it. The brakes are off of the feel train in a real, unscripted moment that I want to be the standard for youth sports.

As a kid I was never too into team sports. As an adult I recognize the values and lessons that they teach. However, as a kid playing them they just weren’t much fun. Now that I’m the parent I’m cognizant of that and direct our kids into the activities that they want to do, with a little bit of advice too. Having said that, neither of our kids are too attracted to group sports at this point in time, but they are quite young.

It would be too easy to show examples on the other side of the parenting and sports equation. This coach and this parent, 100 times more please.

Becoming a dad didn’t totally end my arrested development. #ThanksBaby

I have partnered with Life of Dad and Pampers for this promotion Before marrying my wife I was a cartoon of a man. I used a bandana for a wallet, cleaned the house with a leaf blower, lived in a house that I was renovating as a snail’s pace and had garbage in my car that was inches deep. It would be comforting to say that this occurred when I was in my early 20’s. However, add ten+ years to that figure and that is where this happy man-child was. Age, the pursuit of my girlfriend (who became my wife!) and the entrance of a child helped my case of arrested development erode to where I’m a better man, as well as, a great husband and father, so #ThanksBaby.

Free Men’s Health Screening at Sam’s Club on 6/11

Hey, we were compensated by Sam’s Club, all thoughts are our own. This Saturday, June 11 your local Sam’s Club locations are having free men’s health screenings. Two of my main reasons for caring about my health are in that photo. To be clear, it’s the two little humans in that photo. While I do love dinosaurs, I suspect that one sharp corner would send him running for the hills. I’m slightly more durable. Do you know a guy who could benefit from a free health screening?

Hard working dad doesn’t’ shower daily, still #Smellegendary with Old Spice

I partnered with Life of Dad and Old Spice for this promotion. I fell asleep during my son’s karate class today. Last night I worked until midnight, woke up at 6AM, made lunch, breakfast, got the kids to school, worked in the morning and then picked up one of them from school at 11:00. It was his intention to go home and play the Shark Game, but I needed to go to the gym and work out. Suddenly it’s 12:30 PM and I still had to go grocery shopping, do the dishes, fold the laundry and fry the bacon up in a pan-which I would promptly eat. This is the typical day of the Hardest Working Dad. However, because I care for those around me I elected not to smell malodorous I used Old Spice Dirt Destroyer in the shower (no photos from that one-lest ye be 21, pay off our mortgage or go to our non-existent dark web site). On the contrary, I #Smellegendary. Like marinara sauce on your pizza we also used Old Spice Odor Blocker under the arms-you can’t prove that it’s there, but once you taste it-or don’t smell me in this case, you believe it.

He Named Me Malala, well crafted film with details you think you know

He Named Me Malala is the story of Malala, the young girl that was shot by the Taliban for speaking out about the rights of girls to go to school. That is the story that the public knows-and every bit of that is true. In the documentary He Named Me Malala, airing commercial free on National Geographic Channel, Monday, February 29 at 8PM ET we learn the details about her life prior to the attack, her recovery, home life and her desire to get every girl (in the world) into the class room.

This documentary is can’t-turn-away gripping. Part of that is accomplished by the content of the story, in addition to the way that the film was created.

Choosing your Old Spice #Smelliment is a win/win for all

Hey, I have partnered with Life of Dad and Old Spice for this promotion. You’ve seen the ads online. They’re the frantic, kinetic, over-the-top ads for Old Spice that star Isaiah Mustafa and Terry Crews. Crews was all about Bearglove while Mustafa is the softer, but still strong side with Swagger and Timber. But still strong is key, because dudes certainly do not want to smell like a billy goat, but we don’t want to smell like a patchouli leaf, even if our name is herb. Mustafa and Crews called a truce in their epic series of ads and we got the chance to speak with Mustafa about it.

Man Crates, gifts for guys from bacon to bourbon & beyond

Hey we received a Man Crate for review. All thoughts are our own. The name Man Crates in interesting and it kind of makes you smile, doesn’t it? Because at the end of the day, most guys will not tell you what they want, yet they sometimes need gifts. Man Crates seeks to fill that gifting void by providing packaged crates packed with all manner of man. Think of something that a guy likes to do and there is a Man Crate for it.
