Easy now. Is Zeke a 4 or a 5?

Would he fit in with Shelden and Candace's oldest?

Shouldn't we check available scholarships for that '27/'28 season?

Thank God it's a boy.

Congrats Shane.

almost 2 feet long and over 8 pounds - that's a big baby.

I don't know about the height (or is it called length?), but 8 lb is only slightly above average for a newborn these days - this site says an average baby born (actually says median) in the US weighs 7lb 11oz (7.7 lb). I have a feeling women who've given birth before probably want to kill me right now for saying an 8lb baby is not big

Just saw that his first name is Zeke - I guess Shane was a fan of Isiah, or maybe it's a family name, but I just don't think Zeke Battier is a good name... Hopefully he'll just go by his middle name or something :-p

Congratulations, Shane and Heidi!

Who's your daddy? June 15? Sorry. Lil' Battier couldn't wait that long!

Congrats Shane.

What?! Just thank God that a new family has been created, congratulations to the beautiful mom and wonderful dad.
Zeke is an adorable Little Devil!

I am straight up drooling at Battier in the front court and Parker-Williams in the backcourt! National title, here we come!

Wonder if Roy will have won one with his own players by then?

I know you're joking but, wouldn't that be Williams-Parker? The dad's last name goes first for the kid, mom's last name goes first for the mom. Kinda funny, I have a friend named "Parker Williams," so that in itself could be a good name.

Actually, it can go however you want it. I have what the British call a "double-barreled" last name and my mom's last name is first, followed by my dad's

[jagger]

But how does everyone know that the man is in charge of the family, etc., if his name does not come first?

[buzz]

Of course, you could go preppy and name the kid Parker Williams-Parker.

So, is Zeke short for Ezekiel (strength of God)? Shane was a religion major, if I recall correctly.

Why is Shelden's kid in the backcourt? I guess his wife must be a guard. I don't follow women's hoops. Still, even if his mom's a guard, I have to figure any child of Shelden's to be a forward of some kind, just based on girth.
