I did a bunch of stuff for the PR Department and one day I was filing a bunch of stuff in the office and I came across the Player Questionnaires that they have each new player fill out when they are acquired. In college I was an intern for the Portland Trailblazers (mind you, this was during their Jailblazers heyday while Shawn Kemp was there). Malone also has another illegitimate daughter who plays in the WNBA.Īnyway, before we get to the complete list, first a story from a reader about prodigal son Shawn Kemp, who started me on this journey to chronicle every illegitimate kid fathered by an athlete. How'd we learn that? Well, that kid was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in 2008, and pretty much spilled the beans on how Malone had ignored him his whole life. And sometimes, that doesn't even get you close to the real number of kids.īy the way, another guy I should note who came up this last year was Karl Malone, who unbelievably got a 13-year-old girl pregnant when he was a sop re at Lousiana Tech. The only way you tend to figure out how many illegitimate kids they have is if they stop paying child support. Multiple people have told me, including a reporter doing research on the subject, that Skiles has a minimum of 6, but because he pays the monthly child support, no ones really sure how many he has.Īnd that's pretty much the case with all athletes. He has a former wife who's been more than happy to spill the details of what a cheating bas he was, but she's never been able to confirm how many Skiles Juniors there are out there. Skiles reportedly has at least 6 illegitimate kids, and possibly 8. The big prize from research done this last year is Scott Skiles. Now, those are fairly tame bits of philandering, I mean aside from the beating women part. But he too, joins the athletes with illegitimate kids list. I guess this recent news would confirm that didn't happen.Īs for Turner, he got into a domestic dispute with "the mother of his infant child" (translation: his baby mama) last week, but luckily, he didn't get tabbed with a restraining order. By the way, I should probably mention here that more than a year ago, Fitzgerald tried to force this woman into getting an abortion. But also contained in reports was the fact that the woman was the mother of Fitzgerald's 11-month old kid. Fitzgerald, as you've probably heard, got into a domestic scuffle last October that only became public knowledge last week because the woman involved in it finally filed a restraining order on Fitzgerald.

But thanks to Larry Fitzgerald and Michael Turner having squared off this weekend in the Cardinals/Falcons Wild Card game, combined with the fact that I've been able to follow up on a lot of tips (Scott Skiles alert) over the last year, I figured it was time update the list again for everyone's enjoyment.īut first off, let's get to Fitzgerald and Turner. Or as I like to call it, the Athlete Illegitimate Kid Bible.

It's been almost a full year since I last brought out this list of athletes with illegitimate kids.
