Play A Game Or Attend Baby’s Birth? The Miami Dolphins’ Daniel Kilgore Decides

[DKphin]

But what if the baby that’s supposed to show up on what would be a day off for players show up two days earlier instead? As in when the season-opener is being played?
Tough call, right?
Not for Kilgore.

Nice to see the man has his priorities in the proper order.:D:thumbsup

I mean if it's not his first child, totally get it, even if it is his first, I guess making that money to provide for the child makes sense. Either way, glad to see him at center because hell, Pouncey wouldn't show up to the opener if a new stripper debuted that same day/night before =/

That was a little snarky. Pouncey would show up for the game, the birth of his kid and also see the debut of the new stripper - ie Pouncey embraces option (d) all of the above.

If they could time it right, it would be one hell of a half time show.

It is his first child.

Have someone record it and watch it after we whoop the Titans' ass? Problem solved

You only have one opportunity to see your first child being born. This shouldn't be a debate.

And still has the time to assault gay guys in SoBe clubs at 4 in the morning

Not the Pouncey of NEW, I mean he may have been able to do that list with his coke powers he got pregame from "meetings" with the OL coach, but not anymore!

Family first. Career 2nd

What more can you do? You can go support your wife when she's most uncomfortable.

 

[TripleThreat]

Just schedule a c section for your off day earlier that week.

The wife and baby comes first, regardless of who the opponent is. You don't get a second chance at many of life's opportunities.

Yup, at the end of the day the breadwinner has to do whatever they need to to take care of the family. Being there for the wife is good and all (I balled like an infant for my daughter, surprised the heck out of me) but if you can't pay the bills in a months it's not much good!

Football players still get paid if on paternity leave
