Tall Junior

babies 4[Blind Gossip] These two professional athletes have been close friends for years. While both are strapping guys, one is taller than the other, so we’ll call them Short and Tall.

Short had a baby boy a few years ago. Short and his Wife named the baby after Dad’s best friend, Tall. Sweet, right?

Maybe not.

Short’s family is whispering that there’s actually more to the naming than it appears. In fact, they say that the baby’s real father… is Tall!

Why do they think that?

First of all, they say that Tall used to hang out a lot with Short’s Wife. Alone. Without Short around. Short thought it was fine because they were all friends, but the family thought that was odd.

Secondly, they say that Short originally wanted to name his baby boy after himself. You know: Short Junior. However, Wife absolutely insisted that they name the baby after Tall. That’s also odd.

Thirdly, they say that as the baby matures, he looks nothing like his sibling/s. And he looks nothing like Short. In fact, they think he looks just like Tall. That’s downright suspicious.

Short is so trusting that he would never suspect that his Wife and best friend had carried on behind his back.

And Tall is so famous  – and so darn marketable – that he could never publicly admit that he has a child by his best friend’s wife.

One final note. Tall had a baby boy of his own within the past year. When asked if he was going to name the baby after himself, Tall said he couldn’t see himself doing that, so he chose another name.

According to Short’s family, the real reason that Tall didn’t name his new baby Tall Junior… is because a son with his name already exists!

    I swear, BlindGossip, this better not be about international soccer players …

    Hey everyone,
    I was looking into this &just fyi it CAN’T be Cam Newton cuz
    1. He was against naming his son Cam Jr. from the beginning cuz he wanted him to have his own identity…no “juniors”
    2. Chosen is his 1st and only child & the blind says short has other children who the new baby doesnt look like.
    3. Also his sons mother is his longtime girlfriend &the blind says shorts wife so im clueless as to who this could be also?
    But YIKES!! what a truly sad freakin’ nightmare wen this…

    • butwhatever says

      Cam is Tall, not Short. Tall just had a son, who was not named Cam Jr. because Short already named his son Cam…after the friend he didn’t realize was the real father. It’s Short whose other kid(s) don’t look like little Cam, and whose wife cheated.

      I liked the Lorenzo Cain guess, but the ‘chose another’ (say it out loud–it even says ‘Chosen’) clue sold me on this one. (What sold Newton on a religious-cult-style name like that I can’t imagine, unless it was traumatic brain…

    • maddam says

      Most of us are saying Cam Newton is “Tall.” He’s 6’5″. That’s pretty tall. “Short” is the one who has the other children and is married and “Short’s” child is the boy in question. “Short” is the one who has other kids–and this boy, who “Tall” may be the father of, looks nothing like the rest of “Short”‘s kids. The blind does not say that Tall is married or has other kids.

    Short: Stephen Curry

    Tall: Cam Newton

    Quote from Cam: “I wanted something that would be masculine, but yet unique,” he told reporters. “I’m not a big fan of juniors and every person that I’ve had this conversation when I say ‘I don’t want to have the pressure of him being a junior’, they reply, ‘what the hell do you think Chosen’s going to bring?’”

    The only name of a white guy that came up was Luke Kuechly. But I have no information as to whether he became a father.

  8. lilylover90028 says

    I think the clue is in the picture – are there famous athlete BFF’s where one is black and the other white?

  9. heloveshim says

    I kept thinking D Wade and Lebron but it isn’t them, the clues don’t fit. Whoever this is, it’s terrible!

  10. PrincessConnie1 says

    Not a sports fanatic so not sure.. But I think chose another name, can’t think of naming him junior etc = Cam Newton naming his son Chosen vs Cam. Cam Newton is very marketable. Who is his best friend?

    • PrincessConnie1 says

      LOL! True..
      But It took a lot of digging to figure out who this “close friend” is..
      Tall = Cam (Cameron) Newton
      Short = Tyson Clabo, who’s youngest son is named Cameron
      The pic on the blind are black baby (Cam) and white baby )Tyson
      The “Chose” clue = Chosen, Cam’s son name
      Although Tyson’s son Cameron doesn’t look IR, but everything else seems to fit.

    • PrincessConnie1 says

      Ok, going back to the drawing board… Tyson Clabo is taller than Cam Newton by an inch… Hmm..
      Either way, whoever this blind is about… it is sad their kid will grow up thinking someone else is his dad. Shame on them!

  11. Goodgrief says

    Michael Phelps just had a baby named Boomer. Can’t think of a friend though.

    • Ashey_Larry says

      Could it be Stephen Curry? Just throwing out a wild guess, considering Cam Newton is 6’5 and Stephen Curry is 6’3.

    • Mia444 says

      Good guess, they’re good friends and SC is shorter, and married, but…he has two daughters, no sons. Dang, who IS this?

    • Ashey_Larry says

      You’re right, well, s**t. This one is a stumper. C’mon Ace, give is one more listtle hint friend. Bloody hell, this one has been wracking my brain for the past few. lol

  13. lookie loo says

    Long time lurker, first time poster…

    Could Tall be Cam Newton? He’s very marketable right now. He had a son this year. And his son’s name is Chosen. The blind says, “he CHOSE another name.”

  14. maddam says

    Cam Newton and ? Cam is a big guy, an athlete, is very marketable, had a boy in December, and named him Chosen–after everyone expected him to name him Cam Jr. No idea who the other guy is.

    • tellmemore says

      Cam doesn’t have any other kids, and the BI says the boy doesn’t look like his siblings.

  15. Ashey_Larry says

    Wow, what a mess this situation is.

    With no pun intended, it appears that Short got the “short end of the stick” on this one.

    It is transparently clear that the wife and Tall need a serous re-calibration of their moral compass.

    As I firmly adhere to, one never needs to be afraid of anyone, simply pay attention and be cautious of their intent.

    Considering Short appears to be the bigger person here, he may simply take the high road.

  17. Mia444 says

    This should be easy. Two famous athletes, best buds. Shorter one has a preschool-aged son named after the taller one and doesn’t look like his siblings. The taller one had a son born within the past year that he did not name Jr. I’m not a sports nut so I’m drawing blanks. I looked up a few famous names but no luck. Shaq’s son is too old. Ditto Michael Jordan’s and David Beckham’s sons. Charles Barkley has only a daughter. Kobe has only daughters. Hmmm….

  18. TriviaMaster says

    Could it be Blake and Taylor Griffin. They are bi-racial twins (picture), Short and Tall (like the movie Twins….) and it would make sense that a brother who is very marketable and busy wouldn’t think much of his bro hanging out with his wife. Wife’s last name is Willis (capital W on Wife). It mentions “family” a lot which got me thinking this could be even messier than it looks.

  19. PizzaDog says

    I have no idea who these people are, but this whole story is really messed up if true.

  20. jonty30 says

    Short must realized what happened and forgiven his wife.

    I’m not sure I could be so forgiving, especially if short was a decent husband overall.

    • Chi83 says

      Can’t be. Shaq’s sons have names that are variations of his, also he has not had a son in the past year.

      I feel like because of the tall clue it is basketball players but I am not ruling out another sport like soccer/football…

    • chicagogirl says

      Can’t be. They’re about the same height. Jordan’s recent children are girls, and Barkley only has a daughter.

    • cebii says

      Jordan doesn’t have a child named Charles and Barkley doesn’t have a child named Michael.

    • sanward says

      The athletes are baseball players. The hint was the black and white babies. “Tall” is Kameron Loe (6’8″), who is white. “Short” is Lorenzo Cain (6’2″), who is black and plays for the Kansas City Royals. Lorenzo Cain and his wife Jenny had a son and they named him Cameron Loe Cain. Yes, a hot ass mess!

    • kristina2 says

      That’s a good guess, but Kameron Loe isn’t “so famous” (he’s not really famous at all) and also I don’t think he has a kid of his own.
