Welcome To The Family

Because I'm Your Father | February 14

One February 1929 evening in North Chicago, seven well-dressed men were found riddled with bullets inside the S.M.C Cartage Co. garage. However, on this February morning, on the North Side of the Interwebs, thirteen well-spoken dads can be found riddled with adjectives and double-entendre inside the blogosphere. We are no different than other dads, responsible for our wives and children. But we are dads who spend time with our families, and choose to write about it. We are The Blogfathers.

My name is BIYF from Because I’m Your Father, and I’d like to make you an offer to join me and several other Dads You Can’t Refuse, including Adventure Dad, The Bean’s Dad, Matthew fom Child’s Play x2, Dad Gone Mad, Genuine, Eric from More Diapers, Mr. Nice Guy, Not-For-Profit Dad, Dutch from Sweet Juniper, and Woodge. Overseeing our interests are our esteemed Consigliere, Jay Allen and Laid-Off Dad. Be sure you click over to these wiseguys’ other sites to pay tribute, because they are all very good at what they do.

Every week on this site, we’ll be giving you our unique thoughts, insights, opinions, rants and raves, about being men of honor, and about this thing of ours called Fatherhood. But it won’t all be musciata - expect us to amuse you. Starting soon, we’ll be joined once a month by a different Goomah (that would be Mommy Blogger for you jamooks). These ladies will be giving you their special perspectives on things, so we’ll expect you to listen good. Finally, if you’ve got a beef, speak up. But remember that we can always give your comments the Moe Green Special.

Someday - and that day may never come - we may call upon you to do a service for us. But until that day, we hope you’ll accept this site as a gift for your Valentine’s Day, and the future.

  3. I like the look and feel of it. Nicely done so far. First DadCentric…now the BlogFathers…what’s next? LethalDads…FathersDayOff…TheDadsClub. :) (yes, all 80’s movies references for you 30-somethings out there)


  4. My people!


  5. Congratulations, looks great around here!


  6. Great job guys! I came in last night and added you to my favorites so you’d all be here waiting for me this morning…

    Looking forward to reading all you guys have to offer!


  7. Great site. Between you, DadCentric and dadbloggers.com, the dad’s are representin’! You should get a link up to Dadbloggers.

  10. Great place you have here! Adding you to my blogroll and I can’t wait to read more!


  11. You boys have a nice place here! I have been trying to find a better way of saying it, but all I can come up with is: I am a mommy blogger! Pick me! Please…can I please play with the big boys? When you pick a mommy blogger I got an idea–pick me!

    Enough shameless groveling.

    You are all fabulous writers, and I do enjoy reading your work.

    (and pick me.)


  12. Rock on, guys.


  13. Right on, I already read most of you guys on a regular basis anyhow, so it’ll be good times to have a 1-stop-shop for everyone’s gems of wisdom. One question though — what happened to NotForProfitDad? One of my favs and no posts there for a few months…sure hope to see him back in action soon!


  14. Awesome. Looking forward to reading you all!


  15. Yay, fun. I’m so glad to have come across a group of humorous, thoughtful and well-spoken, er, well-written, dad bloggers. It’s so nice to see. As a stay-at-home dad in small-town PA, I start to feel like I must be the only one, it’s so nice to have a collection of peers (betters?) all in one place. Congrats, and I’m looking forward to more wit and wisdom of the blogfathers.


  16. Nice!!!
    I am linking up right now.


  17. Nice place you got here, boys. Hope you invite me over. I’ll bring the fava beans and a nice chianti.

    Wait… wrong movie …


  18. Word up. Mo’ daddies, mo’ better.


  19. Amazing post; keep it up!


  20. Who was the greatest comedian in the Bible?
    Samson–he brought the house down.
