    Default Stephens: His name is Keevan Bailey — not “Champ Bailey’s son” — and he’ll play football at Colorado State

    He gets it. His dad is famous.

    Twelve Pro Bowls. Fifty-two interceptions. One of the greatest cornerbacks of all time. Champ Bailey is one heckuva a standard to live up to on the field. And Keevan Bailey hears about it.

    All 👏 The 👏 Time 👏

    The title “Champ Bailey’s son” has followed Keevan since he first strapped on a football helmet in the Denver suburbs as a six-year-old. He was a pee-wee stud, and everyone could see it. Even if he stunk, think anyone was going to tell him? This is Champ’s kid – there’s greatness there.

    It was a blessing at first. Truly. His last name provided opportunities in football, and making new friends was easier when he moved to Georgia at age 9.

    He basically credits his mom with encouraging him to play and not give up on the game, and although he appreciates the heritage of his dads name, his mother is the main reason he’s signing with CSU.

    Maybe Champ ain't so great of a dad. Getting snubbed a bit.

    If you right click and open in a private window it usually bypasses the paywall. I was able to read it that way. Doesn't work all the time, but it usually does.

    Interesting. He definitely did that on purpose.

    Found this old article. Maybe she did not speak well of him to the kids. This article does not sound like she was perfect.

    Champ had a reputation of being a ladies man, which is totally not cool if you’re married. It’s not surprising if she felt negatively towards him.

    It's best not to delve into the personal life of players you like. Human beings will always let you down.

    Just because you've aspired to be a lawyer?
