Um, no, Ryan.  You're the one who brought it up in the first place by 
calling Antoine a "deadbeat dad".  So don't take the high road now.  I 
remember, when that SI article came out, wondering why Antoine, who by all 
accounts had been an interested and responsible parent, was being lumped 
into the pot with all of the Shawn Kemps and Greg Minors of the league, who 
have truly been delinquent in their parental responsibilities. I don't claim 
to know that much about Antoine's personal life.  For instance, it was news 
to me when you said he had recently gained custody of his daughter.  Is that 
even true?  What I do know is that for a long time now, he has been reported 
to be very involved in his daughter's life.  So much so that two summers ago 
he was heavily criticized for wanting to stay in Chicago to be with her as 
much as possible.  I stand by my contention that it is "cheap" to call him a 
deadbeat.

Jim
