October 30, 200817 yr you know...i guess it's one thing if you're superstar making 10's of millions but if you are a career reserve (though on 2 Bulls championship teams) you should probably spend $20 and buy the big box of condoms... Unless you were a superfan of the Bulls championship run during the 90s or one of eight women who bore any of his 10 children, the name Jason Caffey probably doesn't ring a bell. Caffey won two championships with the Bulls as a reserve power forward, but oh how times have changed. As my grandmother used to say, "Where there is laughter soon will be tears." Most recently, the AP is reporting that Caffey cannot file for bankruptcy, which opens the door for the eight mothers of his 10 children to sue him for child support. This isn't the first of Caffey's legal woes, which include an assault charge in 2005 for rendering a male stripper, "too emotional to strip," according to Deadspin. Earlier this month, Caffey granted an interview to WKRG in Mobile, Ala. shortly after serving an eight-day jail sentence for failure to pay child support for one of his kids. His explanation included: "It's never that I didn't send child support it's just that I didn't send the amount that was said to be sent by the courts."
October 30, 200817 yr Jason Caffey might well have received the worst contract in professional sports history with his $35 million dollar deal. You could definitely find some other arguements, but man did the Bulls dump him at the right time.
October 30, 200817 yr I remember my mind was blown when Caffey got all that money (and at the time, that was a pretty ridiculous contract).
October 30, 200817 yr Jason Caffey was one of my favorite players on those Bulls teams. He was fun to watch off the bench and horrible once he left.
October 31, 200817 yr That's the benefit of playing on a championship team...unless you were a DNP-Coaches Decision all year long, all the other teams think you would be a useful cog on your team...cuz you have a ring, you MUST be good. Still, as was said before...you should be smart enough to wrap that rascal. Maybe he and Shawn Kemp can get together and have a little baby momma confab.

Either that or they could make one HELLUVA Maury episode!
October 31, 200817 yr Is there any article that states the kids ages? Im just wondering if he had 1-3 spectacular years, or if he spread the "wealth" over a 10 year period
October 31, 200817 yr I'm wondering how each child support is calculated. Basically, for example, if you have one child, expect to pay 25%. If you have two, 30%. But that is with the same momma. You can't give 10 different kids each 25%, unless you are a politician making promises.
