When I read the title of this thread two things came to mind:

A. Joke

B. Adoption (which wouldn't be likely)

I've always like Dwight because he seemed like a morally sound person but to put it lightly, I disagree with having kids outside of marriage and am disappointed in him. Hopefully the Jazz beat his ass tommorow night.

Relax, he hasn't preached anything to anybody. He admits to being a Christian but that's it. Furthermore, everyone sins thats why we're Christian, so we can be forgiven for them. So you SHUT up.

"I'm not going to deny it. Yes, I have a son."

Man, that's kind of depressing, like he feels guilty about his son. The big deal made out of Dwight's religious commitment seems to have made this pretty awkward for him. If some religious blowhards want to call him a hypocrite, Dwight needs to tune them out, man up, and be a good father.

Dancers and groupies getting knocked up or getting hitched to a player isn't exactly rare, they're in every city. I know or have known several Blazers dancers and they've had to put up with some bull**** from players nobody would expect, so it's certainly not always on them. I'm glad at least some players are smart enough to either wrap it up or choose their women or woman (1) wisely.

Doesn't make him a bad guy, and doesn't make him a sinner or a terrible Christian.


Doesn't make him a bad guy, but it does in fact make him a sinner. :lol:

Actually, it sounds planned.

It says the baby was born in November, but three weeks early, which means that wanted to have it born on Dwight's b-day of December 8th.

"that's it", my ass.

"I want to be able to speak to non-Christians so that I can get them saved or change their lives around," Howard said before last week's Roundball Classic in Chicago.


with an evangelistic spirit that he hopes will "raise the name of God within the league and throughout the world."

It really annoys me when religious busy bodies hold themselves above everyone else, and think that everyone needs to be saved if they aren't Christians. I don't wish to gloat over his misfortune, but I do hope that this shuts his mouth about religion.

Ok, and when has he ever mentioned this since then? He NEVER talks about his religion. It was probably something he wanted when he was younger and now he knows that he shouldn't do that.

I pretty much haven't heard him say anything about religion since he was drafted by the Magic.


BTW, the ladies myspace page was made private because she says that people are spinning the story that it was a fling, whereas they have been in a three year relationship.

Anyone who thinks these two were dating, talking, seeing each other, etc. etc. are out of their mind. And anyone who faults Dwight for it is a moron as well.
