He Did All He Could for a Playoff Birth
- Share via
Kudos to Rick Fox, an athlete who actually seems to have his priorities straight. Fox made the decision to be with his wife when she gave birth and risked missing participating in a playoff game. Seems the logical thing to do to 99% of the population, but I know there have been plenty of athletes who have not gone to be with a dying parent, a sick child or a pregnant wife, all in the name of trying to win a “big” game.
Fox is my MVP for this series, win or lose. His baby is going to have a very special father.
