That being said, no one is walking in Jamal’s shoes. Let the judge do the judging guys.

I don’t know where to begin….being taken over and over by the baby machine gold diggers….

I cheered him on the field, but being a Raven is (or at least should be) more about what you do on the field. ‘Ring of Honor’ is not for you, Jamal. Nothing honorable about such stark irresponsibility.

BUT What does bother me is not seeing your child for over a year, kids dont care or even know much about money, being a good parent and showing love for your kid is priceless. Any one can be a father it takes a man to be a dad!

Plan accordingly instead of buying a new $200,000 car or $5,000,000 house you big idiots.

Besides owning a successful trucking company in Atlanta, he recently brought a 400 room hotel and Water Park in Columbus, Ohio, and a family and entertainment center in Atlanta.”

“When I was 21, I was building 14 sub division homes,” said Lewis. “A lot of these guys, when they are done, they want to just rest, keep vacationing and spending money. Instead of them investing or starting a business while they are playing that will keep similar money coming in when they retire, they buy a barbecue joint or something where they can’t even make a car note.”

“He said he approached Cleveland owner Randy Lerner about purchasing five percent of the team, and allowing him to run it, but Lerner declined.”

You lose all respect from me if you are a deadbeat father…NFL Career be damned.

He must have simply forgot to pay due to his concussion history or maybe the concussions made him forget he has children……..BUM

I know it is all set up, but do the right thing and cancel.

I know this has nothing to do with football, but deadbeats should not be celebrated. Maybe in a few years, IF, he can get his stuff together.
