jkx2 Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 He also is the father of Cheryl Ford who plays for the Detroit Shock and has little contact with. Her mom was also just 13 years of age when Karl got her pregnant. Hard to believe he never ended up in jail. Poor families in the deep south and being a star basketball player, a combination that saved hiss a$$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramius Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 All this "piss poor father" attention being showered on Malone is making Shawn Kemp jealous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grouse89 Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 He has a lot of competition for that title. (Poor Karl, always in the mix but never getting a title.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeF Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 From Pro Football Talk and Mike Florio....wow... http://www.profootballtalk.com/2008/05/01/...been-a-jailman/ In the weeks preceding the NFL draft, we heard rumors involving former NBA star Karl Malone, a son who would be entering the NFL, and a timeline suggesting that the child’s mother might have been a child herself at the time of conception. But since we continue to place not getting sued slightly above informing the readership on the list of PFT priorities, we left it alone. Now, however, the stories are gurgling to the surface regarding Bills rookie tackle Demetrius Bell. Writes Allen Wilson of the Buffalo News: “His mother, Gloria Bell, reportedly was only 13 years old and Malone a college sophomore at Louisiana Tech when Demetrius was born. Malone might have served jail time had her family asked the district attorney to file criminal charges.” Malone had no involvement in the rearing of the child. They first met when Demetrius Bell was 18, and Malone reportedly said to him that it was too late to be his father, and that Bell would have to “earn his money on his own.” Though we’re not quite sure why the decision of the family to not press charges kept Malone from spending what would have been his early years with the Utah Jazz doing the Jailhouse Rock, it appears that the man who wanted no involvement in the life of his son could have had a life that turned out extremely differently if the age-of-consent laws that routinely get applied to so many others had been applied to him.

Steely Dan Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I'm pretty sure that approx. 10 years ago Mississippi voted to increase the age of consent for their state from 13 to 16. I've always wanted to see an accounting of the vote to see if anyone voted against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silvermike Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 He brought the fastball on this piece, too, even if his personal revelation stopped me cold. I'm about to turn 40, and I can't begin to imagine living this long without ever meeting my father. Can you imagine having a 27-year old son already? Bell's mom is still younger than some of our veterans. Can we give Demetrious a little f-you Karl bonus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
