Urlacher: Baby Mama "Unreasonable"

By Prescott Carlson in News on Nov 27, 2008 7:00PM

2008_11_27_urlacher.jpgChicago Bears' Brian Urlacher responded yesterday to the statement made by his son's mother, Tyra Robertson, that Urlacher painted his son's nails and put him in a "gender inappropriate pull-up," calling Robertson "unreasonable" and that he was "incensed" that she has caused him to miss scheduled visits. Urlacher claims he's missed 12 planned visitations since August 28th. As to the whole nail polish/pink diaper situation, Urlacher had a perfectly reasonable explanation, especially to any parent that has raised both boys and girls in the same house:

"He did get his nails painted. Yes. [My daughters] painted his nails. So what? His sisters were painting their nails, so he was like, 'I want to paint my nails.' He's 3 years old. Who cares?

"And, yes, he did have a pull-up on of his [3-year-old sister's]. But she wears his pull-ups also. His were out, so he put on one of hers. … So what? It's a pull-up."

Our thoughts exactly, Brian.
