http://100percentinjuryrate.blogspot.com/2007/06/it-should-be-busy-fathers-day-for-these.html With Father's Day just around the corner, we thought we'd check in to see who might need the day extended into a week just to see all of his kids. We know that a lot of pro athletes have illegitimate kids (or will soon have some), so we've decided to simply list the most notable and the most, uh, potent athletes in recent memory. We decided not to include people like LeBron James, who's at least with his girlfriend while having kids. We've also categorized the list, just for fun. By the way, if you think Shawn Kemp is the #1 illegitimate sports father, you sir are wrong. A couple of guys seem to have made it their mission in life to produce more kids than Kemp and Brigham Young combined. Plus we all know how competetive athletes are. By the way, if you would like to add names of people who we didn't put down, go ahead and put them in the comments section. ATHLETES WITH ILLEGITIMATE KIDS THE HEAVYWEIGHTS Shawn Kemp - 7 illegitimate kids by 6 women. Gives his nickname of the Reign Man new meaning. Evander Holyfield - 9 illegitimate kids. "Heck I'm not even mad, I'm impressed!" Ex-San Antonio Spur Willie Anderson - 9 illegitimate kids. If only his field goal percentage had been as high as his impregnation rate. Derrick Thomas - 7 illegitimate kids by 5 women. He died at 33. Let's just leave it at that. Ray Charles - Not an athlete, but still had 9 illegitimate kids and 12 total, which is quite impressive. Being blind must have made it tough to get that condom on. UPDATE: Don't know how we missed this - thanks to a reader for pointing this out to us - Calvin Murphy reportedly had 14 illegitimate kids by 9 women. Wow. THE MIDDLEWEIGHTS Larry Johnson - 5 kids by 4 women. 3 are illegitimate. Santonio Holmes - 3 illegitimate kids by two women, before leaving college. Former Celtic Greg Minor - 3 illegitimate kids. Ricky Williams - 3 illegitimate kids. Maybe that's why he smokes so much weed. Priest Holmes - 3 illegitimate kids. You best keep running Priest. THE LIGHTNING FAST GROUP Willis McGahee - 3 illegitimate kids in 2 years in Buffalo. Not a lot to do in Buffalo, except make babies. Lots and lots of babies. THE GUYS YOU WOULDN'T EXPECT GROUP Walter Herrmann Peja Stojakovic Wizards Coach Eddie Jordan NHL player Daniel Alfredsson NHL player Richard Zednik Mike Miller THE FAMOUS OLD GUYS GROUP Steve Garvey - 2 illegitimate kids by 2 women. Dr. J - 2 illegitimate kids by 2 women. Larry Bird Isiah Thomas Jim Palmer Pete Rose THE GETTING A HEAD START GROUP Gary Sheffield - Had 2 illegitimate kids by age 17. Added a few more later on in life. THE THAT'S JUST WRONG GROUP Elijah Dukes - recently impregnated a 17-year-old foster child. THE QB KIDS GROUP Matt Leinart - already has one, my guess is he's working hard on another. Tom Brady - his is on the way. GUYS WITH AT LEAST ONE ILLEGITIMATE KID Antawn Jamison Chipper Jones DeShawn Stevenson Cliff Floyd Mark Messier Brian Urlacher Rae Carruth - Yes, he fathered an illegitimate kid before the incident where he had his pregnant girlfriend gunned down. Oscar De La Hoya Juan Gonzalez Andre Rison David Justice Alonzo Spellman Dave Meggett Gary Payton - If the glove doesn't fit... Stephon Marbury Jason Kidd Allen Iverson Latrell Sprewell Juwan Howard Kenny Anderson Scottie Pippen Hakeem Olajuwon Patrick Ewing Randy Johnson - by reader request. We missed him. So in other words, the moral of the story is wrap it up tight. Unless you're a professional athlete. Then just do whatever the hell you want. -WCK
"Don't know how we missed this - thanks to a reader for pointing this out to us - Calvin Murphy reportedly had 14 illegitimate kids by 9 women. Wow." Wow...
"Randy Johnson" I think we can safely assume that those two words is what caused ALL of these births.
screamin jay hawkins had 55+ kids, too bad his father's day is 6 feet under http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_Hawkins "Hawkins died on February 12, 2000 after surgery to treat an aneurysm. He left behind many children by many women; about 55 were known (or suspected) upon his death, and upon investigation, that number "soon became perhaps 75 offspring", according to this website. News of Hawkins' death was sadly overshadowed by the death of singer Oliver, Peanuts creator Charles Schulz, and Dallas football coach Tom Landry, all of which occurred on the same day."
Sam, Speaking from a Jewish/Christian point of view what would be the present way of saying illegitimate? The reason I ask is that I was taught that illegitimate was the more acceptabe way instead of using b*stard. The generation before mine used to say born out of wedlock! And the generation before them wouldn't even talk about it as it brought disgrace upon a family.
Yeah Murphy was the first thing that came to my mind and how his kids later accused him of molestation. Also does Lebron and his wedlock kids especially the one that was born a week a ago count? Wilt Chamberlain should be up top the playa list, I read one time he did like 10,000 women in his lifetime. That would be too many kids to even keep a count or he must of had a lifetime subscription with Trojan.
It's appalling and sad -- but unfortunatelly not limited to the sports world. My father's been gone 20 yrs and my daughter is out of state so I spent thisp past Sunday at a crisis shelter with kids who have no Father around -- there are way too many.
i wonder what wilt chamberlain's numbers look like. he claims to have slept with over 20,000 women. at the rate these athletes have kids out of wedlock i would put a rough estimate that there should be about 200 little stilts running around.
well for Hakeem, he had a daughter with his first wife when he was in college, then they divorced like in the early 90's, you'll notice his daughter I believe the second championship when they won, so its not like he "knocked" her up, cause well they were married then got a divorce, Hakeem would later have an arrange marriage I believe in '97? In which I think he had 2 more kids with her. Same goes for Jason Kidd, has 2 kids with his HOT ASS ex, and is considered to have illegitament kids, but I wouldn't consider that catagory because, well he was married to her.
