DEADBEAT ATHLETES ARE MORE COMMON THAN ONE WOULD THINK

Frankly, we were a little surprised to happen upon Top 10 Athletes Who Are Deadbeat Dads. It did not surprise us that men do not support their children or that pro athletes seem to father an inordinate number of illegitimate children. What surprised us was the allegation that Carl Malone impregnated a thirteen-year old child when he was in college and that he is only one of a number of multi-millionaires who provide absolutely no support for some of their children. After all, it is not like these guys do not have the financial wherewithal to reduce their financial exposure through negotiation, so they should at least pay something. And apparently, lawyers even specialize in this area as evidenced by the article Negotiating The Professional Athlete’s Child Support Obligations.
