Kobe Bryant has passed away.

Some reporter (aka the noble guardians of truth) from WaPo decided it was a good time to mention the rape allegations against Kobe.

Kobe Bryant: reporter suspended over sexual assault case tweet

 

This is getting ridiculous.
It’s sad he died, the way he died, and prematurely BUT.

NBA gonna cash in one last time by bypassing the HoF voting process and just elect him. He was eligible this year and would easily have gotten in anyway. Way to look like “good guys” NBA.

Also, a couple retarded NBA players (Jazz - Mitchell and O’neale) have called for the league to retire his number. 1 called for 24, the other chimed in with don’t forget 8.
To date, zero NBA numbers have been retired league wide. Bryant is not the first great to die, even early.

Some fans also want to replace West’s logo with Bryant.

 

That proposed logo is awful

 

That’s all knee-jerk and won’t be happening.

 

Shouldn't?

Kids shouldn't have abusive parents, but it still happens

 

Easier to fix technology than it is to fix people!

 

The technology is not that great, there is not a whole hell of a lot keeping a helicopter up, does not take much to crash.

 

Watch Nike cash in on this.

They will make some heavily produced tribute to Kobe, slap their logo on at the end, and watch the sales come in.

"Want to pay your respects to Kobe? Buy a $200 pair of shoes made in China by pseudo-slave labour."

 

Jeeze not even worth owning a helicopter anymore these days. Worth the traffic wait I guess

 

Not sure about personal or public helicopters but military fly them hundreds of times per day around the world, all conditions.

I’d say they have a higher percentage of mishap than any other aircraft though.
