No pics of the kid?
The way it seems he dosent take a very active role in his other two kids. The one article talked about how he saw the one kid 4 times in 5 years, or 5 times in 4 years. It is like they just swept it under the rug, and that he must be pretty embarrased about it and paying some good hush money to this lady to keep it under wraps. He talks about everything else, like the debbies he chases after and such so it is not like he prefers to keep his home life private like Votto does.

Do the reds lose those games with him? You never know.

He has 3 that are known, but ya have to wonder how many more he has or could have had but gave a pretty good payout to 'get it taken care of'.

Ultimately it is his life and he can do whatever he wants. He has enough $$ to be able to dole out child support to multiple people so they are taken care of, in theory, well enough.

I think this def bumps his peg down quite a bit in terms of being a 'great guy' that many seem to think he is. Does a lot of great things but still seems like a very unresponsible person.

Nobody knows what the situation is with him and any of his kids. You speculate that he isn't a good role model, but you really don't know. You think little 5yr old Johnny cares about BP's personal life? He see's the BP that's out on the field having fun, taking pictures with people, and being a good ambassador for the game.

Overall he likely is......that part of his life he is not proven to be one...,,but I'm in charge of my kids not what any professional athlete chooses to do.
