Scary timing. Richard Sherman, cornerback for Seattle Seahawks, is due on the field Sunday for Super Bowl. His girlfriend Ashley, is due with their first child days later. What if both amazing events take place at the same time?

What if that baby came early, on the morning of Super Bowl? If you were Richard Sherman, do you stay put and play the game and not let your team down, but let down your family?

Or do you let down your team and rush to be at your girlfriend Ashley's side and witness the birth of your son?

He's already won a Super Bowl. He's never had a child before. But does that matter? Either way, you'd live with some kind of regret. Being a first baby, it probably won't come early, but what if it does?

Imagine you were in Richard Sherman's shoes, how would you handle it?
