I don't know about you, but I expect Christmas will be coming early for my family and me.
My wife and I are expecting our second child and the arrival will be any day now. We don't know the gender, so feel free to get a pool going.
The upcoming bundle of joy means that I'm going to be on leave from work for two weeks starting today. I won't be writing during that time or tweeting (much). There is a coverage plan in place, so make sure to stick with JSOnline for Marquette news while I'm away.
I'll be back on Dec. 28 for Marquette's game against Morgan State. I plan on watching and/or DVRing the games I'm missing so I can hit the ground running when I return. I'm sure I can also look forward to a few tweets and emails to keep me in the loop.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all of you. No matter what or how you celebrate, please be safe and enjoy the time you get to spend with your loved ones.
That's certainly what I'll be doing.

Merry Christmas! Congrats on the new bundle of joy!

Congrats. Thanks for a great job. Merry christmas

Congratulations Matt. Buy your new son or daughter a cute MU outfit from the Spirit Shop.
-
Congrats, Matt! God bless and thanks for all you do for Marquette coverage!
-
If it's a boy name him Al; a girl Alice.
-
Congrats on the new bundle of joy! WE ARE MARQUETTE

I cannot help but be disappointed in this decision. Life is about choices and Velazquez has put himself before all others. Good men are being left behind.

Wait, Matt Velasquez has been a part of muscoop this whole time?

Uhh duh. How else would you expect Wojo to know how to cater to our needs and listen to our wisdom?

Where the hell do you think he gets his intel?

Marq.

Congratulations!

Hmm .. We R Final Four .. has a very specific email address that would indicate he's not the JS's Velazquez.
Oh noes, maybe he's in the witness relocation program.

M. Velazquez is Chicos

Marq.
Marquette if a girl?

Marquette if a girl?
Or if the baby is French.

I figured We R was just quoting a blurb in from the JS, or twitter (although too many characters for that).
I assumed mattyv1908 was Velazquez

Congrats Mr. Velaquez. Thoughts and prayers for a healthy baby

1908 is not Velazquez.

Wishing and praying for the best, Matt.
BTW, if you take all of Mike Hunt's articles and filtered them for unique content, they still wouldn't reach the length of this article by Matt.

I know (I think?) everybody is just having fun with the suggestions that Matt buy his new baby a Marquette outfit or that he name him/her after our heroes, but I'll say this anyway:
I would be quite disappointed in him if he did anything close to any of that. He is a journalist -- and, it seems, a good one -- not a fan.
I love the coverage we're getting from Matt. We need it to continue. What we don't need is another cheerleader.

Ha--No, I am not Matt. I am just a guy who copy and pasted.

Thanks for making me look like an idiot and asking if you were Matt, "Matt" :)

He can still do that and not be a cheerleader. The two are mutually exclusive.

Marquette if a girl?
As long as the she isn't ever planning a trip to Italy. My italian friends always get a kick out of my Marquette gear.

Marquette if a girl?
Rumor on the street is they had a baby girl this morning, and the first three letters of her name are "Mar".

Mariela Grace was born at 8:36 a.m. She weighs 8 lbs 3 oz & is 20.5 inches. She & mom are great — I'm thrilled, too.
Congrats Matt!
