The Godfather of jibbing is now officially the father of dribbling... a dribbling baby boy that is.

Mike Douglas and his wife Susie welcomed their first child into the world at 3:07 p.m. on Sept. 24. Weighing in at a healthy 7 pounds, 6 ounces; Devon Douglas arrived just in time to watch the first snows of the season fall at the Douglas home in Whistler.

"He's a beautiful little kid," Douglas said, "He's about a two-footer." Douglas predicts Devon will be hitting the slopes with him soon. "I expect him to take over my career--just take over my sponsorships so I don't have to keep beating myself up."
