So many comments from butthurt dudes complaining about the timing and whether or not he can be locked in. Like seriously? It's his life, seems like the dumbest thing ever to complain about. People are bizarre. My first thought was congratulations

September? They couldn't have picked April or May? And what's with this living in sin, engaging in pre-marital sex?

Don't ever read the comments, lol. Toxic idiots galore. Its mind blowing how stupid people are. Yeah, JJ is the first NFL player to have kids while playing in the NFL.... ;) If Phillip Rivers can raise a minor league baseball team worth of kids, I think JJM will be ok. Mama and Mama's family will doing the heavy lifting.
Lol that rabbit hole is insane. They are mad that he didn't wait. Or that he's not married. Or congratulating him on the sex. Or asking if he is sure he is the father. These dudes are weird and probably never leave the house. It's so strange

My first reaction was...been there, done that. But congratulations on becoming new parents.
Congrats and best wishes right?
Man, I would not have been ready to be a dad at 22 though.
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

I was a Dad at 28 the first time, and I sometimes wonder if I was mentally ready then?
Happy for them both.
Hope he knows what he's doing! That would have been a lot for me at 22 but they'll have family I assume, and money to help. Wishing them all the best.

I don't think any man is ready to be a dad until it happens. Then they rise to the occasion (or not) and become a father.
I was a father at 22 yrs. old and I was not happy about it. I figured I had a few more years to go before I had to act like a responsible adult. The missus was ecstatic about it. But, my two kids (in their 40s now) were great kids and a blessing.

27 years old for me, Tom. Good thing I was more mature back then than now. ;)
33 for me....

I mean I became a mom at 25 and it made life even more amazing. I think so many people are being absolutely ridiculous and unreasonable about this. Like JJM doesn't need the fans permission to be a dad

He's going to be a dad to a lot of players in the league pretty soon too.

You don't think he should've checked with the Longship first? After all we've done? I mean, how rude.

32 here…possibly 25 as well but that’s a long story.

You slut... LOL
43 for me. Older than most, and probably older than ideal. But if I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't go too much younger. I've often thought ideal would be middle 30s. Most have the house, career established, student loans paid off, etc.
The worst part about being an older dad is that my son just turned 18 and wants to play on a beer league softball team together. He used to watch me play when he was younger, and even back then I was tripping over my own feet at shortstop. Now at 61, I don't think I could even make it to first base without going into cardiac arrest. As someone once said, aging is not for sissies.
