Shopping for a Highlander's Baby

The best early strike o' ma life wasna on the pitch. It was in bed with Amy on our honeymoon.

Dinna ken how we turned our elopement, honeymoon, and conception into a hat trick, but there ye go.

One minute we're swimming in champagne and red satin sheets, the next we're staring at a due date that lands right when I'm supposed ta start my big sportscasting gig in London.

Amy's glowing. She's also got that fire in her, the kind that makes her tell my billionaire uncle exactly where ta shove his branding campaign, quit her job at eight months pregnant, and rearrange our entire life plan on a Tuesday.

The grandmums are suspiciously quiet, which is more terrifying than when they're at each other's throats.

Then it happens. The wee one decides ta make an entrance four weeks early - while I'm three thousand miles away, live on air, with a producer who willna let me leave.

So I do what any McCormick would do.

I coach ma wife through labor in one ear, commentate the match in the other, and let a billion people watch me choose my family over my career on live television.

It's messy. It's loud. It's pure chaos.

It's the match of our lives.
