Kid Nate Has a Kid

Me_tiny by Luke Thomas on in News Comment 26 comments


Believe it or not, nerdy bloggers - even those who cover MMA - actually reproduce. BloodyElbow.com's own Founding Editor Kid Nate is now the proud father of a baby boy! Weighing in at 10lbs and 7 ready ounces, he stands 21 inches tall and hails from Alexandria, VA. Kid Nate reports Mom and baby are doing just fine and that the baby "was spared a life time of drunken birthday brawls by being born a red head two days before St. Patrick's Day."

From everyone here at BloodyElbow.com, congratulations on the newest addition to your family and we welcome the opportunity to brainwash a kid from Day One into appreciating and loving MMA!

Also, be sure to click on "Entry Link" to decide which aspect of Little KN's training should come first.

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
Congrats. That's an enormous child for 2008 standards. Your wife will never let you hear the end of that.

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
Yeah, Nate, your kid is huge. I was about this size when I was born and I'm not small fry these days. Get your kid into the gym early and lock the doors on him. Someone has to take out Anderson Silva.

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
At that size, the kid will be fighting Antonio Silva!

Congrats all around.

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
I vote for striking with some good ol' fashioned crazy dad stuff like insisting your kid be a southpaw.

Congrats again though Nate!

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
thanks!
I'm a lefty so I'll be focused on teaching him to switch stances just like Anderson Silva!

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
Congrats! That is one big boy, maybe have him spend his summers in Brazil to work on his BJJ and the rest of the year in a good local gym for his standup! lol Who knows, in 20 years you may be reporting on his latest heavyweight title defense!

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
we'll be working takedowns and takedown defense at least 30% of the time -- got to be sure he can dictate where the fight happens.

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
I just have to point out that wrestling and potty are neck and neck. Typical biased JJ guys!

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
Right behind you, Nate.  I've got a Virginia baby boy due in early April here in Richmond.  Hey, you didn't mention his name.  Care to share?

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
Make sure to get him a baby mouthpiece instead of a pacifier, may as well get him used to breathing with it in!

Congratulations. Nothing compares to fatherhood.
Remember Fedor was in ballet as a child.

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
Congrats nate!!

I voted for jiu jitsu.....but beware, when you are changing his diaper you will be  especially vulnerable to the Kid's rubber guard, he may lock in a gogoplata...or in this case a gaa gaa goo goo- plata

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
Congratulations.  I hope the Bloody Elbow team is going to give you a break from blogging for a little while.

Re: Kid Nate Has a Kid
Hell no!  And I expect the kid to start writing sometime soon.  BE supports child labor!
