Ahhh geez Chris (Bosh)

Re: Ahhh geez Chris (Bosh)

Looks like the comments were unwarranted.

Not only where they trying to have a baby, but it doesn't look like Bosh is anything close to being a deadbeat dad like the original article suggested.

According to court filings, Bosh initiated the legal battle between the former lovers before the baby was born, filing a petition in Texas, where he said he believed — pending the outcome of a paternity test — he and Mathis would "enter into a written agreement containing provisions for support of the child."

Bosh's paternity was later confirmed, but Mathis filed suit to have the case heard in Maryland, where she is living with the baby. Bosh believes it should be heard in Texas, where they "consummated their relationship sexually" and where Mathis stopped taking birth control pills "with the intent of getting pregnant."

So they baby wasn't an accident and he was manning up to his responsability...

Re: Ahhh geez Chris (Bosh)

I think we should all really just fall back for a minute. I mean, look at where this conversation is going. A lot of you are making really good points but the fact of the matter is that we are jumping the gun. A female wants money from her rich baby daddy....? Ummm, maybe we should get all of the facts. And that's not necessarily to say that she is lying, but I feel that to many people are quick to take her side.

I reread the article and I just shake my head at the claims of Bosh being Mr. Irresponsible all of a sudden. Seriously, if he takes care of and loves his daughter, I could care less if he kicked shorty girl out the house cause at the end of the day its not about her. I wouldn't be surprised if a few weeks ago she was sitting on the phone with one of her girls saying "Can you believe he had the nerve to break up with ME? It's all good girl cause I got somethin for his a*s".

None of my comments were directly about Bosh, but rather the broader subject at hand; having children out of wedlock, not taking care of responsibilities like a man etc.

I know ALL about shystey (spelling?) women. When in Japan (Marines) I had a chick try and claim I got her pregnant to gain American citizenship.

So yea...know all about that.

JBH I don't think were that far apart. My issue is that now days if your a certain age you "get" to call yourself a man. That is all I am saying its not about defeatist mentality at all its about having a standard again. Not just default membership into the club.

I got you...I try and tell my (little) brother he isn't a man...yet. He's 24 and still at home w/ mom and dad. He claims he's a man given his age, I tell him you ain't a man till you can fend for yourself. Right now you're just a 24 yr old boy who hasn't left the nest.

Looks like the comments were unwarranted.

Good for Chris. Sad, real sad, to see this chick potentially using this child as a pawn in her little game.

Re: Ahhh geez Chris (Bosh)

I am not calling him a deadbeat dad by any stretch. All I am saying is stop getting these girls pregnant. Point blank. Accidents don't happen as much as people want to use the "accidents happen," card.

We all know dudes be goin up in these females raw as all outdoors. That is NOT an accident. Her telling him that she is on the pill, shot, or whatever, that is trusting the female and putting YOUR livelihood in danger.

That is not jumping the gun.

She = Pregnant
He = Father
Whole thing = Going public

So SOMETHING happened that somebody didn't want to happen.
Either he didn't want the kid or he didn't react/act the way that SHE wanted, so she went public

Just don't get the damn girls pregnant. Be smarter as a million-dollar athlete. These woman ARE trying to trap you so they can make a come up.

His fault, she is smart. She made a come up

Re: Ahhh geez Chris (Bosh)

I know it is easy for me to say it because I don't have tons of p*ssy thrown my way like these pro dudes have, but he should have learned lessons from those athletes that got burned before him.

How many brothers fell victim to the skeet.........

Victim? Oh my lawd.

The problem is can people put someone else before themselves. That is the true question. A child should be the impetus to come second.

Then stay with her... Dont bring a child into the to world unless you know you are ready. Children arent like pets where if you buy a puppy with your girlfriend you can just decide where the puppy goes. With a child its forever I get tired of the bitchassness of the men who dont take that responsibility to heart.... Yeah providing for your child is great thats only half of it and you shouldnt have kids until you are ready to do the whole job

The problem is most women don't give the man a chance to take care of the kid anymore. The moment a girl gets pregnant now,instead of telling the pending father first,they're running to child services.
