Something About Today

If you have hopes of raising a child sports prodigy, you might want to try for December 30th to be his or her birthday - today's notable celebrants include golf superstar Tiger Woods and basketball phenom Lebron James.

From Tiger's bio:
Eldrick (Tiger) Woods, now 30 years of age, has had an unprecedented career since becoming a professional golfer in the late summer of 1996. He has won 63 tournaments, 46 of those on the PGA TOUR, including the 1997, 2001, 2002 and 2005 Masters Tournaments, 1999 and 2000 PGA Championships, 2000 and 2002 U.S. Open Championships, and 2000 and 2005 British Open Championships. With his second Masters victory in 2001, Tiger became the first ever to hold all four professional major championships at the same time. He is the career victories leader among active players on the PGA TOUR, and is the career money list leader.
And from Lebron's:
High-School, All-American, 3-Time Ohio "Mr. Basketball", Number One Draft Choice of the National Basketball Association (NBA), NBA Rookie of the Year, USA Olympian, an international celebrity with major endorsements, already being compared to the greatest legends of the NBA - and all this before the age of 20.
I imagine March shall be a busy time for aspiring sports moms and dads.
