Baby Spurs

Susan Yerkes: Spurs have a benchful of little 'subs,' and a notable friend

San Antonio Express-News

Another NBA championship isn't the only thing the Spurs have to look forward to.

Seems the team's also experiencing a baby boom. According to the unofficial grapevine, at least half a dozen of the team's players, coaches and staff and their wives are expecting babies.

And though Spurs folks have put the wraps on the news, some sharp-eyed observers have noticed Tim Duncan's wife, Amy, is apparently among the expectant moms.

Bruce Bowen's been more open about the fact that his wife, Yardley, is expecting, although Baby Bowen isn't due to appear until this fall. As with Tim and Amy, the Bowens' baby will be the couple's first.

Spurs newcomer Nazr Mohammed and his better half, Mandy, are also expecting a baby. While it will be the couple's second, it will be their first since Nazr signed on with the Spurs this spring.

And 7-foot center Sean Marks' wife, Jennifer, is expecting a little addition to the growing Marks clan soon.

Off the court, coach P.J. Carlesimo's wife, Carolyn, trainer Will Sevening's spouse, Terri, and Mike Budenholzer's wife, Mary Bet, are also looking forward to new babies.

On and off the court, you might say, the Spurs keep producing. Congratulations to all.

That is great news. I hope all goes well for the guys and their families. Having a pregnant wife made my husband a mess. Unfortunately, we lost 3 babies last year.

BTW Shelly, I love that avatar. :)

[angel_luv]

I knew about Amy and think it is wonderful! =)

She came into the Terrace club resturant a few weeks ago. Amy's server is a good pal of mine. I asked her how it was serving Amy. My friend gushed about how sweet Amy was and that was also when my friend told me about noticing Amy's bunch.


Congrats to Timmy, Amy and all the rest. Ahh, when we win, think of all those babies being " in" their first parade. How great is that!

Sorry to hear that, Bonsinaz. :(

Thanks! Feel free to stick virtual pins in it! :lol

Spurs newcomer Nazr Mohammed and his better half, Mandy,
mmm I have a little question please :p
How come you say "better half" in this sentence? Mandy>>>>Nazr?
Thank you, your dumb french.

[Shelly]

Thank you, your dumb french.


I'm assuming it means they aren't married??

[stéphane]

Oh I don't really get it... In french we say sometimes "moitié" = "half" when talking about your GF / wife... but i dont get the "better"... Is it a polite form to be nice with women or something else?

[BronxCowboy]

yes

[Kori Ellis]

I'm assuming it means they aren't married??


That doesn't necessarily mean they aren't married. (I believe they are.)

stephane, it's just a term meaning wife or girlfriend.

[Kori Ellis]

I noticed a while back that all these women were having babies. That's a lot of babies expected for one team :wow

[JustEnough]

well it looks like the Spurs have the ball boy possition taken care of for the next few years

[1Parker1]

Now all we need is Manu's wife to be pregnant! :)

[Summers]

Yep, I remember reading when Nazr first came here that he had a wife and a little girl, but didn't know their names.

I gotta get me some of whatever the Spurs are drinking.

[Slomo]

Sign them now - before the other teams find out about this :)

[1Parker1]

Sign them now - before the other teams find out about this :)


LOL.. I was thinking the same thing. How cool would it be if both Bowen's wife and Duncan's had sons and 20 years from now, Duncan Jr and Bowen Jr would be playing for the Spurs? :spin

[Spurgal]

Congratulations!

[SpursWoman]

WTF is in the water in the Spurs locker room......and where can I buy a bottle for Kori?!?


:wow :) :lol :elephant :makeout :wow

[violentkitten]

[EasilyAmused]

:wow :) :lol :elephant :makeout :wow


And me!!! *jumpsupanddown*

[violentkitten]

cant get any production out of billion barry on or off the court.

[bonesinaz]

Sorry to hear that, Bonsinaz. :(

Thanks! Feel free to stick virtual pins in it! :lol


Thanks Shelly, there are plenty of unwanted kids who need a mom and dad so we will adopt. :)

As for the voodoo doll, I have already virtually cut it's head off and ripped out it's guts. :spin

[Horry For 3!]

Thats a lot of babies coming soon. Maybe some future nba players in the mix?

[foodie2]

I just heard a lead-in for the local news that said something about a little-known "family secret" of Duncan's that may have an impact on his participation in the Finals.

Does that mean that his baby is due about that time, I wonder?

I can't imagine if she were 8 months pregnant no one would have mentioned it by now or it would have leaked....so I don't think she'd be too offended if he missed a prenatal visit. :)

[Kori Ellis]

I think she's at least 8 months pregnant.

[foodie2]

I think she's at least 8 months pregnant.

That's what I thought too. Uh oh. Hope she times it right. :angel

[angel_luv]

Really? She was weaing a knitted pancho but didn't look big enough to be 8 months. Isn't our Timmy the one for keeping secrets ( if she is) =)

[Kori Ellis]

She might not be that far along, but some people have said that. I guess we should watch the news and see what they meant.

[ShoogarBear]

Uh, oh.

Dammit, Tim, don't you know the NBA rule is No Conceptions in September?

[foodie2]

I'm pretty sure it was KSAT, though I could be wrong.

And with KSAT, who knows.

[spurschick]

I think she's at least 8 months pregnant.

Actually, I think she's due in September. I just finished working on a web site for a high-end baby store and Mike Bud's wife came in to put herself and the other expectant mothers on the registry. I'm pretty sure that Amy's date is in September.

Actually I think it's mid-June. Bruce's wife is September. But maybe I'm wrong.

[SpursWoman]

Whichever is the case, that is awesome news!





















*please wait until after the playoffs Timmy Jr.*

[Shelly]

I wonder if Tim and Amy will name their baby Larry O'Brian Duncan or if it's a girl Larrie O'Briananna

[Summers]

I think Kori possibly has an inside source and is being modest. :lol

A friend of mine who's seen some of the wives at games told me a couple months ago Amy looked to be around 6 or 7 months, so she's due soonish. And I read somewhere it's a girl... (shrug)

[MI21]

Bruce's wife is named Yardley.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Now what would a thread titled Baby Spurs be without photos of some baby spurs?

Here's mine about 18 months ago:

[Kori Ellis]

Very cute!

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Very cute!

Thanks! He outgrew the Parker onesy. I tried to get him a 3T of anything at the Houston game, but I couldn't even get in the store it was so packed. Next time, I hope to get him a Ginobili shirt (if they have it in a 3T); he's got some Manu in him (but then, what toddler doesn't?).

[Tek_XX]

It doesn't matter when she's due, as far as spurs fans are concerned he's not missing any games

[Tek_XX]

I wonder when eva is gonna be poppin' out some calves?? and will they be tony's?

[Experiment2100]

reported on local news

[Obstructed_View]

Cool. Being a dad rules. The birth of my two sons are the only things above the Spurs winning the '97 lottery on my List of Great Events. :lol

[Boo]

Baby Duncans!

[Manu20]

Congrats to Tim Duncan and his wife.

[Sonia_TX]

Someone told me about this a few weeks ago. So exciting!

[Experiment2100]

The thing is supposedly they are expecting in June.

[Goddess Spur]

Congrats, Tim and Amy. :)

Man, having Tim for a dad, that would rule. :lol

[Sonia_TX]

Timmy is a kid himself. Baby Duncan will have a blast w/his dad!

[pooh]

I guess that's why their shooting was off on some night's....Go Suns

[T Park]

Scary aint it.

Congrats to them.

[Sense]

Amazing time in his life..


I think we need a championship to make his year :D

[King]

Is Amy ever seen at games? If they're expecting in June, I'd guess that somebody would've noticed long before now if she ever goes out.

[Sonia_TX]

I never see her at the games. I saw PJ's wife about 2 weeks ago and she's already far along.

[Dre_7]

Timmy is a kid himself. Baby Duncan will have a blast w/his dad!

Or her.

[Dre_7]

Congrats Tim!!!

[Sonia_TX]

Or her.

True true. Thanks for the correction. :)

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I hope it doesn't come along until after the Finals, Duncan needs his rest, not waking up to a crying baby 10 times a night :lol

[Obstructed_View]

I hope it doesn't come along until after the Finals, Duncan needs his rest, not waking up to a crying baby 10 times a night :lol
I seriously hope brutha man can afford a nanny, or at least to have family come stay at the house until the playoffs are over. :)

[3rdCoast]

I have never seen a pic of his wife. Is she hot? Just wondering...

[E20]

Amy Duncan....there some pictures, I was kind of suprised at first when I saw her for the first time.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I seriously hope brutha man can afford a nanny, or at least to have family come stay at the house until the playoffs are over

I'm sure he can afford a nanny, but the point is a newborn is a huge distraction, both from the mental to the physical.

Amy is in the middle.

<--has a three month old. You don't have to tell me. I thought you were joking, and I was adding to the joke, hence the smiley face. You have sort of sapped the humor from it. :) <--smiley face

[3rdCoast]

I googled Amy Duncan but didn't seem to find anything that seemed like his wife.

[rwb]

Amy's a very pretty blonde, also seems very nice. I wish them the best!

[3rdCoast]

Thanks. Can't tell too much cuz of the distance, but I am sure she is hot.

[Summers]

"Word has it the baby is due in June"... Man, I could've told us that! I thought they were going to give us some news: sex, name, agent...

[Summers]

Congrats, Tim and Amy. :)

Man, having Tim for a dad, that would rule. :lol

Having Tim for a husband would be cool. ;)

Amy and Tim are a very cute couple. I love the way he kisses her on the top of her head. And everyone who meets her says she is incredibly nice.

[Big Pimp_21]

is it too early to sign baby duncan to a contract for the 2023 roster?

[E20]

http://img285.echo.cx/img285/4720/golf246gb.jpg
Here is another one.

[3rdCoast]

Here is another one.

Yea- shes not bad. :blah

[Obstructed_View]

Is that a can of Copenhagen in her pocket?

[3rdCoast]

Is that a can of Copenhagen in her pocket?
Good question....does Amy dip?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

My bad Obstructed, didn't catch it. LOL.

If I remember right she was a cheerleader at Wake Forest.

[Sonia_TX]

Having Tim for a husband would be cool. ;)

When I read that I was going to say "doesn't he do that to his teammates?"...but then I remembered that he just pats them on the head. Manu is the one that does the kissing. :P

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Thanks for pointing that out. Had you not, I would have thought Amy Duncan had brown fur and pointy ears.

[Sonia_TX]

Thanks for pointing that out. Had you not, I would have thought Amy Duncan had brown fur and pointy ears.

and lovely green eyes?

[samikeyp]

:lmao

[E20]

I made that caption on purpose to see what some people might say. :lol

LOL. That was what I was thinking. :)

Well.. that, too. :)

I also read in an article sometime back about them, and how he'd call her before games; that was sweet of him.

:lol

[Obstructed_View]

My bad Obstructed, didn't catch it. LOL.

No worries, it's late.

I know I'm a total homer, but it's nice to see a famous athlete that marries someone he knows from college instead of some of these guys who pick up trophy-wives who you know won the leaf-blower-starting contest on groupie night or were the sluttiest dancers in his music video.

[ducks]

june is not that far away
that may have been his distraction all year


duncan's stats are about the wrose they have been in a long time

[Spurgal]

If we can have a Baby Shower for Tim & Amy today, what gift would you choose to give them?

These are some of my choices...

Congrats to Tim and Amy! My youngest daughter was born after game 3 of the '99 finals. She was a good girl though, and waited until the game was over before deciding to be born. :)

[Kori Ellis]

Is Amy ever seen at games? If they're expecting in June, I'd guess that somebody would've noticed long before now if she ever goes out.


Yes, she goes to games. And yes, someone did notice. But sometimes, it's good to respect a players privacy. Bruce and Marks came out a while back publicly talking about expecting babies -- that's why it's been talked about in the forum a lot.

Since Tim didn't (and neither did Nazr, PJ, or Mike Bud), I wasn't going to make a baby announcement in the forum months ago.

[angel_luv]

Thanks for pointing that out. Had you not, I would have thought Amy Duncan had brown fur and pointy ears.


Hahahaha! Classic!

I saw Amy in the Terrace Resturant a few weeks ago. I'm a hostess and she had to check in with me.
I think she has a beautiful face and my co worker liked her a lot.


Oh my gosh, I knew Timmy was going to have a baby. But it just hit me that he is going to be a Dad. Awwww! How wonderful!

[sa21]

Congrasts Tim and Amy!
There are some good pictures of Tim and Amy at timvp_duncan yahoo group

[Tek_XX]

The news said it will be a girl

[NZHayden]

Is marks baby gonna be an american citizen or new zealand? hopefully new zealand we need all the talented basketballers we can get

[spurschick]

If New Zealand laws are the same as Australian, the baby will have dual citizenship.
