Just call him Big Daddy Barreiro.

KFAN's "Bumper to Bumper Show" host Dan Barreiro is off the air because he's installing baby bumpers, and enjoying the first days of his baby girl, Giovanna. His wife, Catherine, gave birth last Wednesday.

Barreiro plays these things pretty close to the vest. Not a peep on about the birth is on his Twitter account, although there is a joke about Percy Harvin-Michael Beasley that will tick off both the Vikings and the Wolves!

Somebody, clearly not Dan because he's smart, at KFAN posted a note that "Dan is out on fraternal duties." Pledging Baby Phi Baby? The word the brain wizard wanted was "paternal." It's a sports station, so thank Mount Olympus they spelled Barreiro correctly.
