sad as fuck...
and i grew up priding myself on being the biggest kobe hater as a kid...
It wasn't until I grew into manhood that I really started to appreciate the time, effort and overall grind he put into everything he did...
I met him last season when my former boss introduced me at the practice facility
"Kobe I want you to meet two of my new guys, Kris and Jarvis"
Kobe: What's up fellas
Me: How are you Kobe
Kobe: What's your name again? Kris. Nice to meet you
Then daps me up before going to talk to my boss...
I'll never forget that little quick exchange...And everytime it was in passing and I said hello he always spoke back...
Props to Kobe being a real one, never switching up

I hope folks play for him. Ball the fuck out. I know that sounds crazy but it would be nice to see the ultimate competitorship for the rest of the season
R.I.P My Dude.
It does. It was a real gut punch. One of those moments where you wish you could pinch yourself and wake up.
Jesus
My wife and I are in Barcelona right now...we just finished a great dinner at a tapas restaurant we just discovered and were having a great night all around until we left and got a message from my mother in law that Kobe died...just fucked up my whole night
I kept praying that it was just some false death rumor... but as it became clearer that it was true and that his closest daughter died with him shit started to hurt me more. I started off being a Kobe hater during his early years but over time gained respect for him and his work ethic, drive, mentality, his virgoan strive for perfection, and the fact that he was the last of a dying breed of athletes with that cutthroat killer insinct.
I'm really sad to not be able to see all the post basketball moves he was gonna make, its only been a couple years and hes done ao much already...i miss being able to see the development of his relationship with Gigi and what path she was gonna forge...as bad as I feel for not seeing that.... its only a fraction of what his wife must be feeling losing a husband and daughter so quickly my heart goes out to her and the rest of his loved ones
R.I.P king

He was not the pilot.
I don't remember that.
I'm actually surprised at the board after seeing all the K.B hate over the years. Y'all continually acted like the game went from M.J. straight to Lebron as if Kobe was just some dude who shot the ball a lot and his legacy didn't matter, I actually applaud y'all.
And these are the so called far minded liberal whites. Most of the criticism and poorly timed commentary is coming from white female libs who seem to forego mentioning the part about the charges being dropped. All they know is that they have to sully the legacies of powerful black men at all cost. And nothing sticks to legacies quite like quotes and comments made in person obituaries.
And thats how he is treated in his "hometown".
It’s amazing how Demar who openly deals with mental health issues is able to compartmentalize his tears during these tragic events.
Only one person did that and me having him on ignore I don't even know (nor do I care to know) what he's said or posted in this thread....I'm actually surprised at the board after seeing all the K.B hate over the years.

Thanks. I only come into the office one day a week. Today is it.
Just curious, Was this his regular pilot?
Driver in fatal crash smoked weed because he was 'upset over Kobe Bryant passing away,' police say
One person has been charged with two counts of vehicular homicide in connection with a car crash that killed two people in Memphis on Sunday night.
According to police documents, Charles Jones, 38, "smoked some weed earlier due to being upset over Kobe Bryant passing away."
Jones, who is also facing charges of disregarding a stop red light, driving while intoxicated and reckless driving.
The victims who died as a results of the collision have been identified as 54-year-old Sonja Roser and 51-year-old Christopher Hunt.
The fatal crash occurred at the intersection of South Third Street and Raines Road at approximately 5:40 p.m., according to police.
Police documents say Jones was driving northbound on South Third Street towards the Raines Road intersection when he drove over the center lane into southbound lanes and proceeded to make a left turn while the light was red.
While turning, Jones' vehicle struck the vehicle occupied by Roser and Hunt head-on.
The two victims were rushed to Regional One Hospital, but did not survive their injuries.
Police said footage from a nearby Walgreens shows Jones crossing into the southbound lanes and turning at a high rate of speed.
Jones is currently in custody and will be arraigned by video on Jan 28.
