NBA Finals 1, Delivery Room 0

You guys are bringing up Mickelson some in here, but missing a point. Phil was going to give up the US Open to be there for Amanda's birth because she was their first child. From what I understand of the situation, he wasn't walking off the course for the rest of their ever-expanding brood. (Seriously, I think Amy transfers the pregnancy weight to Phil.)

Tiger is the same way. This will be his first child and he's now saying he might just have to play really fast.

LeBron was there for both kids' birth. This is a postmortem on a decision he never had to ultimately make because she went into labor when he was right there. The guy's not Shawn Kemp. I don't know why he's not married, but if they choose to live that way, who the hell are we to judge?

Personally, I wasn't allowed in the room for my wife's C-Section and not being there for the birth hasn't hurt the budding relationship I have with my 18-month-old son. I was in the hallway the entire time, but my son still tolerates me.

 

I still stand my conviction that LeBron's wife should have given birth at mid-court. At least then she could deliver the Cavs a win.

 

Well, well, well, Tiger skips his baby's baptism:

Let the santimonious posts resume!

 

LOL!

 

What a freaking idiot. Was it that hard to work around his sked?

I just lost a ton of respect for Tiger.

 

I'm amazed.

 

Well, I read somewhere -- I think it was The Big Lead -- that the baby is Matt Leinart's anyway.

 

Glad to see that site is taking a justified bitch-slapping.

 

Tiger's a buddhist. They don't recognize baptisms. Since you guys know completely nothing about how Tiger and his wife make decisions like this, it'd probably be best to let it go.

 

But, Poin, how many people who are in mixed marriages show up anyway to their child's events out of love and respect for the kid? (And not to mention doing things as a family, not just if it's convenient to you.)
I'm Catholic, I married someone who is an offshoot of Methodist, I was married in her church, my kids were dedicated in that church, too (you choose if you want baptized or not). Even though I'm not their religion, I went anyway because it means a lot to my wife and it was a big event for the kids.

 

Yet he allows his child to be baptized.

I know what I am about to say has to be hypocritical because god knows I've commented on 1000 things here that weren't my business, but not one person here knows anything about what Tiger and his wife think, what they planned or anything else about this baptism.
