I Care about Fox's Personal Life about as much as she cares about mine. Only thing I care about is the Kings winning games, nothing else. Get back to the court. Its about as rational as a player making millions of dollars to dribble the ball "Her Words". Sports are irrational, nobody cares about his feelings. All I know is those 2 games may cost us a playoff spot. If shes having a baby announce it so we can move on, you dont get a personal life in during the season, she can be quiet with that smart response unless fox giving some of his money back for those missed games.
trash take.

Wasn't asking for your acceptance. Thats the soft world we live in today i guess. Im sure you've been ok with us losing all these years due to personal life reasons. Being a basketball player, this comes with the territory. Kyre had a personal take on his personal life and got suspended for how many games? He Had A Personal Decision about not taking a vaccine and got vilified. Im sure you didn't care about his personal decisions then.
I love fox, if he needs time off so be it, but don't expect people not to question it when we are in mid season and all star break is right around the corner. Take time off at that time not now. Guarantee you hes not missing the all star game if he was selected.

It's an interesting point. If the timing had been closer to the end of season in a tight race, does he still take off 2 games? If not, where is the line drawn? If yes, would he skip a play-in or play-off game?

And what if it was because he had a parent or sibling pass away? Is it OK for him to grieve?

Except Kyrie’s “personal” decision actually negatively affected other people whereas Fox’s personal decision isn’t affecting health of other human beings. So that’s a bad comparison.

More like, Allstat
Grieve? A Simple Tweet Would clear all that up instead of leaving everything to guessing. If his wife can send out a smart remark that quick, he can send one out as well. Your pushing it

Negatively affect who? You? It sure didn't affect me. Kyre not taking a vaccine didn't say me one way or the other. This is the weak mindedness i was speaking of earlier.
Listen, Allstar Break is coming up very soon, he can take the time off he needs then. Would you be ok with him taking his paternal leave for 12 weeks like the rest of us get by law? Since we are comparing average citizens to basketball players now.
Would he have missed the Allstar Break? Again my Point. Take Time Off, But Dont Expect It Not To Be Questioned. We just got spanked twice in a row.
I would trade 18 years of paternal leave to attend my child's birth.
If that's what this was. There's science that says this is an irreplaceable bonding moment that happens in those first few hours outside of the womb. I'm adopted so frankly I've had this sh* explained to me a dozen times in attempts to explain away whatever quirks I might have in other relationships (usually boil down to me just not liking a person, but pop psychologize away). There's no summer off that makes up for the moment your baby takes his first breaths. Fox took a coach on his honeymoon FFS. He owes us nothing.

Im sure you would being as considerate as you are would simply put out a quick tweet saying "New Baby! Thanks For Your Support"
Boom! That's it, literally that's all. I Have 4 Kids myself, wound't miss a single one of their births. That being said, if a whole organization was paying me millions of dollars per year, id have gladly missed each and every one of there births lol. Ill take a smooth Mill Per Birth and wouldnt think twice about it. We got 18 years to bond! That bonding crap is a myth.
If the baby was born it appears to be a few weeks premature and they might not be ready to announce it. Maybe the baby isn't healthy yet. Maybe they don't want to share pictures or go into details. He doesn't owe us anything. If he plays tonight he missed 2 games. TWO GAMES.

Sir I didnt comment on this until the "Mother of child tweeted that garbage". I know mothers would def take it harder if baby isn't healthy and she still tweeted. One of my babies was a early bird and i still had to call in to my employees each day. And I run the place.
Point is, if its serious enough to miss a game, its serious enough to report.

But...Haven't you heard, @pdxKingsFan???? Fox missing TWO GAMES is essentially the end of this world as we currently know it...
Like, seriously, how the heck are we supposed to survive our star player missing TWO GAMES???
I think it's been said if we play .500 ball the Portlands and LAs need to win 2/3rds of their games to catch us. We're gonna survive.But...Haven't you heard, @pdxKingsFan???? Fox missing TWO GAMES is essentially the end of this world as we currently know it...

I am sure the Kings know why he missed the games, yes.

I Changed my mind. For a mill I'd be there after the game for sure. We not even asking him to miss the day, just the birth. He can fly in and out anytime. JS

Fox Missing Two Games IS No Big Deal..... Proceeds To Make A Whole Thread About It.
Talk about Inconsistency
Until the divorce was final I don't think my son's mom could go more than a few weeks without reminding me that I held her hand wrong during labor. And I wouldn't have missed it for 100 million.
The point is, we aren't owed an explanation of why he missed. Maybe it was the birth, maybe his wife was having complications, maybe it was some other personal family matter. As long as the Kings know and are good with it, that's good enough for me.
I certainly am not an NBA player, but that doesn't change the fact I wouldn't want my boss going and telling the whole office my personal business. Which is more or less what you're suggesting Fox should be doing for the public.

I didnt create the thread sir. Simply giving my two cents, and i was worried about him until his wife posted that crap. Now I know its not about baby problems, I feel free to rant.
You know? Please tell us what you know?

If you told your X Wife, That you would give her a million dollars to show up late to the birth, she would have had security exhort you out and you wouldn't have seen your baby for a week
anyways. sky has fallen.
she got half the house for a lot less than that.

I know that if the baby had big issues, the mother of the baby woundt have posted a merchandise tweet. Unless she has zero heart. I also know that Fox loves this silent treatment crap. Hes always pulled this crap. So no im not worried about Fox. I dont even know Fox, I just want him to do his job. Other than that, who cares. Do you care about the PGE guy keeping your lights on?
If the PGE guy needs a personal day for any reason, I support him. Yes.

Now would be the perfect time (I guess) for me to point out that this thread was NOT created by me.
