Itis s sad day for his family and basketball . He was one of the greats to play the game. Few have hsve gone from high school to pro sports without developing in the minors.
While alot of us may disagree with his political views , we should put this aside out of respect for his family.His life is over and what does it accomplish by continuing the negative name
calling.
Would we want this for our family in the time of grieving???
Youâre right. I guess we are just at a point where we know that they would jump up and down with joy if a conservative met their untimely demise. I think this is just the natural reaction to that.
I personally am indifferent to this news only because I donât watch the NBA also I am galvanised more than ever against watching or supporting the NBA on a whole especially after LeBraunâs comments about HK in support of China so there is that.
The sadder part of this story is that his 13 year old daughter also died in the crash. I feel for his grieving family despite who Kobe was or what he represented.
The tone was set in the OP. It then became a contest to outdo the previous replies.
I sometimes fail but do try to refrain from ill of dead people. However I do have a shortlist of liberals upon whose graves I would gleefully dance. Kobe was not on my list. He was unquestionably a great BB player.
Earlier this morningâŚ
âHey Juan, did you do the maintenance on Mr. Bryantâs helicopter?â
Everyone is acting as if somebody significant died. This animal was just another overpriced, under performing, America hating, anti-Trump, rapist.
Bread and circus.
Fox News disrespects Spanish speaking people in coverage of Sheriffâs news conference.
The Sheriffâs spox said that after the Sheriff gave his comments in English, a Deputy would repeat them in Spanish.
Fox covered up the audio portion of that part with the inane comments of the Fox News reporter.
20 pit bulls chasing 20 cats.
If you speak the truth about a âprominent black figureâ youâre a racist.
RIP Kobe Bryant. You were a great athlete and an even better even better man, who contributed your money to make your community a better place. Youâll be missed. May your wife and remaining children feel peace. Love you Kobe!!
Whatever! I donât care what people call me! I only speak my truth, and live it as well.
I have a hard time accepting anyone as being a âgreat manâ who is a rapist, racist, and hate monger who spent a good portion of his life trying to divide the country on racial lines.
Hell of an athlete though.
You make a point; but as a conservative, I consider myself above that behavior. Just me.
So , his great gift to mankind was he could play ball , outstanding !!! WTF Racist piece of $hit .

All of that was forgotten because of the millions he poured into charities benefiting black inner city youth.
Personally I donât care how good or bad sports stars is, thereâs something very wrong when we raise them to god like status and millions mourn them like Christ on The Cross.
Kobeâs money and black fame got a reporter suspended for even mentioning his rape case .
Iâd forgotten about that, do you remember who the reporter was?

We obviously have a lot in common there.
