Thank you Kobe

Submitted by 615Wolverine on
Last and final game of a hall of fame career. I know most guys on the board are not Kobe fans, but it's only right to give his respect. The last of a dying breed. The black mamba, have a happy and healthy retirement. Go blue

Why does everyone assume she's telling the truth and he isn't?  She certainly wouldn't be the first woman who saw an athlete a great payday and took advantage of it.

The only real evidence we have is that he screwed around on his wife.  Everything else is just conjecture.

Everyone Murders

The love that a murderer (probably - at least an admitted accomplice who's not had the decency to apologize to the family of his victim) gets is equally disgusting.

And Ben Roethlisberger is revered in Pittsburgh and much of the rest of the country.  All because they are good at sports.  It's a hideous aspect of our culture.

He was a great player like many before and many that will play after him. Living here in LA it just kills me at how much this guy was an ass to everyone even the Laker Fans while he played. He can't retire fast enough for me and many others.

I'll give you 2011 as LBJ totally shit the bed in that series but making fun of him for last years finals? Come on man. Winning two games against THIS Warriors team without Kyrie, Love and functionally JR Smith is one of the greater accomplishments in Finals history. Iguodala got MVP because he held Lebron under 40(!) points for the series. I mean losing that Finals should in no way be viewed as negative on Lebron's career.

The Cavs actually had leads or led for a ton of minutes as well.   It was really incredible.  

But eventually would get worn down which was understanable.

Its amazing how little respect people give to his performance.

He should have been convicted. Money buys freedom and time passing forgets. But never forget. This is kind of like Craig James. KBR1G
