Yeah, he did.  Or some girl tried to extort money out of him.

Wow.  Sounds like Ben may have a serious case of happy hands (or something else). 

I agree.  He is not very bright on the women he chooses to sleep with.   With all the money he has he really shouldn't have a problem finding loose women to do his bidding, yet he time and time again finds the unstable ones it seems.

Seriously.  I'm not a guy and I'm sure there are some women who have getting pregnant by or even getting into a position where they than can extort money from a rich and famous guy set as a career goal, but is it really that difficult to avoid these situations?  Especially after being burned once?

Either he is doing stuff he shouldn't or he's really, really stupid or maybe both.

I really hope it isn't true.  I live in Pittsburgh, my son is a 15 year old football player.  He admires the Steelers as a team and as athletes.  I know he's mature enough to know you can be a good even great football player and still be an ass, but I always feel like I have to have a conversation with him about this stuff when it happens.  I hate those conversations.. ha! he probably does too.

Hi,

I saw an interview with Scotty Pippen on the Oprah show years ago right after he signed a $60 million contract.  They discussed the situation and he said you would be amazed the number of women who will throw themselves at a professional athlete knowing if they get pregnant they are set for life.  What a lot of folks do not know is Larry Bird had something like a dozen different kids with different women that he is supporting.

All the fame and fortune is good but it has some drawbacks I guess.

Those guys better watch out.  Tiger Woods got off lucky.  Steve McNair cheated on his wife and wound up dead.

Aside from his adopted kids, he has one child with a former wife -- his family has always accepted his oldest daughter as their own.  Bird never did, although he always financially supported her.   

Bird is legend in New England.  If he had many children from different women we would know about it.

HI,

I am going to respectfully disagree with you.  I saw a couple articles about it years ago and it was pretty much kept under wraps.  Doubt you could find out much about it.  My wife is from Indiana, as is Bird, and I recall she was a bit shocked to say the least.

If there were articles the New England media would have picked it up on a large scale.  Believe me, they crucified him over his lack of parenting on his oldest daughter -- who is an amazing basketball player herself and seemingly a great kid. 

Link the articles (credible sources?) or retract.

Gotta go with FL on this one, dude.  The Globe, Herald, and now radio/Internet guys like WEEI and the Boston Dirt Dogs (run by the Globe) literally SATURATE the New England media with all sports, even the suck-ass Bruins.

They were ALL OVER the media when Tom Brady knocked up Bridget Moynahan, to the point people were just going, "STFU already, will ya?"

Yes, Bird has the ONE illegit child, but that's IT.  And if that's the worst he's done, he's a saint by NBA (and pro athlete) standards.

You want to drop dirt on someone, start with guys like Karl Malone, who got a 13-year old pregnant while he was at La Tech, and the only way we know that is that the kid got drafted by the Buffalo Bills a couple of years back, or his WNBA-playing illegit daughter.

Or maybe Calivn Murphy's 14 kids.

Or Evander Holyfield's 9 kids.

Or Ray Lewis' 6 kids.

Or Steve Garvey's.  Nah, nothing to see here, dude.

My in-laws live in Milledgeville, GA.  What in the world is he doing there?  The only reason to go to Milledgeville is because you have chosen to go there.  Believe me, other than a 3 theatre movie house, a crummy golf course, a bowling alley, fishing on Lake Sinclair, and some really good BBQ joints, the place is deadsville.

I think it's a pretty well known fact that Roethlisberger isn't the sharpest tool in the shed. This just further proves it.

Oh, that list is by no means anywhere NEAR comprehensive.  Hell, Vlad Guerrero had four kids with four different women.  You think you ever heard a peep out of the LA media on that one?

Travis Henry, who's in prison doing a short drug sentence, has nine mulatto kids by nine different fine young women. Now he's broke, so after he gets out it may be tough to keep that string going.

It seems like, in most cases, the best (http://kecute.files.wordpress.com/2008/09/cute-cat-kitty.jpg) is attached to the prettiest faces and the most rotted brains.

There are exceptions (all of the ladies of CC, I am sure), but they are not common.
