1. Tributes to dads who are no longer with us
"Think about #HeyWoody nearly every day, but today especially. What I wouldn’t give for one more round of golf to discuss my fade/slice and another thought on broadcast prep. Oh, how proud he’d be of his grandchildren too…you’d hear more about them than anything else. #FathersDay"
2. Substitute fathers
"Happy #FathersDay to me, not for being a Father, yet, but for being a teacher and a mentor to the countless kids that I meet and engage with in my daily activities. I believe I might have had some impact to some "
3. First-time fathers

"It’s my first #FathersDay. I don’t think I really had a clue what to expect, being a Dad, but it’s all worth it. The nuclear nappies, sleepless nights, being the stunned recipient of projectile vomits, my shoulder being used as a chew toy...it’s all worth it. I’m incredibly lucky."

9. Any man can be a dad, the best dads are fathers
