(112,835 posts)Of course his grills, but I remember him naming several of his sons George... (five in total, as I recall)
RIP, George Senior

(4,865 posts)He always came off as phony to me with his huckster smile and religious bullshit.
His attacks on Colin Kaepernick and support for Piss Wig soured me on him even more.
Great boxer in his day but I never cared for him as a person.

For those that may not know.....
Foreman had 12 children: five sons and seven daughters. His five sons are George Jr., George III ("Monk"
, George IV ("Big Wheel"
, George V ("Red"
, and George VI ("Little Joey"
. On his website, Foreman explains, "I named all my sons George Edward Foreman so they would always have something in common. I say to them, 'If one of us goes up, then we all go up together, and if one goes down, we all go down together!'"[58] As with his father, George III has pursued a career in boxing and entrepreneurship. George IV appeared on the second season of the reality television series American Grit, where he placed seventh.[59][60]
