There Are More Diapers To Change!

Like I said earlier babies have been popping out left and right lately. I'm with Da Real on this one, you know Kobe told Vanessa to hurry this shit up.

Just like old times, Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal are celebrating. The former Lakers teammates became fathers again Monday when their wives gave birth to girls six minutes apart.

Gianna Maria-Onore Bryant was born at 2:03 a.m. PDT in Orange County, Calif. Kobe and Vanessa Bryant are already parents to 3-year-old Natalia. "The arrival of our new daughter Gianna early this morning is such an incredible blessing for me and my family," Bryant said in a statement. "We are all full of beautiful emotions after such an incredible day."

Shaquille and Shaunie O'Neal became parents for the sixth time when Mearah Sanaa O'Neal was born at 4:57 a.m. EDT in a South Florida hospital. It's the third girl for the O'Neals, with Mearah joining sisters Taahirah and Amirah and brothers Myles, Shareef and Shaqir, who turned 3 last month. Both mothers and their new babies were said to be doing well. (MSN)

Hot damn Shaq and Shaunie! I could've sworn this was the tenth kid. They got a damn Tribe Called Quest in their house with all those chil'rens running around. Since I'm a May baby I have love for the rest of them out there. They should've been born on the 6th like moi though, hehe.

Denzel's Son Signs NFL Contract With Rams

Signing the son of actor Denzel Washington on Monday ensured the St. Louis Rams of making a splash the day after the NFL draft ended. John David Washington, a 5-foot-10, 200-pound running back was among 10 undrafted players signed by the Rams. He played for Division II Morehouse College last year.

"This is all a good story," Rams coach Scott Linehan said. "I hope he's a good running back."

Washington had a school-record 1,198 yards with a 5.6-yard average and nine touchdowns, and added 10 receptions for 69 yards is senior year. He also ended his career as the school's single-game (242 yards) and career (3,699) leading rusher. Washington led the conference in rushing last season, and was named national player of the week by D2Football.com last season.

Oh Lord, there are going to be even more groupies for the Washington men. Thanks Da Real for both of these stories! You're always looking out :)
