Agree with you there ...


Looking at the video it doesn’t appear to be Kobe’s ...but if it was and you see someone fall out prior to the crash - many questions would have to be asked.

I'm the 1st to admit that this does not look like either Kobe's helicopter or the grasslands surrounding it, although it is possible. But if somebody is falling out of a helicopter that's going crazy it could be nothing more than a seatbelt, or fear of crashing.
Work could have been debris like a suitcase, really could be anything. But the concerns are heard.

Because based on your post you seem to be insinuating that YOU believe Kobe was in fact guilty of rape, despite not being charged let alone found guilty of it by professionals in the judicial system.

Hmm, interesting assumption.

My point, is asking you, what's yours?

The girl's testimony was discredited as being full of holes. I was pointing out that the same standard should be used for Bryant.

I suppose that would carry more weight if the girl was worth half a billion dollars in Kobe was worth nothing.
And there wasn't a history of whores trying to cash in on athletes and celebrities.

The top part of your post you make a couple good points.

Let me just ask you.

Do you think Kobe Bryant, 6'6 hard bodied in shape athlete arguably in his prime, famous, multi millionaire, needed to rape this girl?

Do you think Kobe Bryant was able to have consensual sex with her, but afterwards the girl felt ashamed or regret and decided to accuse him or rape?

How do you feel about her admitting to having sex with multiple partners, in addition to finding semen from another man 24hours from her allegidly being raped by Kobe?


Based on everything I have read, it seems to me Kobe is guilty of cheating on his wife, and that's it.

No, I do not think he raped her. I was simply pointing out that certain points you were making about the court system, assumptions, and law are not necessarily exonerations.

A good looking guy, rich, famous etc... is a magnet for gold diggers. Actually, remove good looking from my statement, as gold diggers chase the money and it's a bonus if the person is famous because getting a damage control check written to them is easier. I mean fuck, look at what stormy Daniels did to trump. Confidentiality agreement in place and still extorted money, then went for even more.

Only time he’s ever passed

He put it up a chick's ass without asking, she called him a rapist, then he went on TV and gave Martin Luther King quotes as his defense.

Very sad that this is how his book ends, I feel so broken up for his family.

RIP to a Real Ass Dude if there ever was one.



Whaaaaaaat in the world. People are saying she mixed up "Lakers" and "Knicks". I don't buy it, seems like a classic N-bomb dropping to me.

Calabasas is fire country and the video didn't show any vegitation. The video also had no fog and the crash took place in a canyon with steep cliff flanking it.

Here is the crash site

She used to report for the Knicks in New York and moved to LA ...just a slip of words -- nothing to see here.

Shocking news. This has hit me surprisingly hard. That video of him and his daughter sitting courtside together just days ago is heartbreaking.

RIP Kobe

Can you imagine his wife Vanessa and their remaining kids, imagine waking up tomorrow morning knowing Kobe and Giana aren't there - going into their rooms how they left everything and having that sinking feeling they are no longer here in this world.

My heart goes out to them.

Why does everyone assume people just harbor this word?
It is a media-pushed farce.
The emancipation proclamation occurred before my ancestors emigrated to the states, in the Northwest, not in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia or any other racist democrat, KKK, rebel flag waiving states the republicans set straight.
I've never even HEARD a white person call a black person a nigger, nor have I ever met or seen one of these "white nationalists" the media propagates millions of.

This notion that the word "nigger" is genetically embedded on the tip of every tongue is off-the-wall.

This was not a racist anchor, or a freudian slip.
It was a slip of the tongue, and people need to chill tf out, especially in the midst of tragedy.
It's a pathetic reach at a terrible time.

Whether he raped that woman or not, that twat 'comedian' trying to cash in for notoriety or whatever is a fucking asshole. It isn't about Kobe, because he's fucking dead. It's about his family who are now in a shit horrid state of grief.

she has a very strange way of pronouncing "nakers" :p even "knickers" seems likelier than that, I call bullshit. I reckon she got the idea from twitter and used it as her excuse when in reality she really did accidentally say the N word.

I guess you missed it.
This is a response to the ranting, in which I'm calling an end to it, because it isn't the place for it...

I just made a post today about how I don’t want the word used here. I’d kindly ask everyone to respect that and get back on topic.

You could say the same about any number of athletes or famous people. Rape isn't just when the guy is ugly. It's when someone doesn't consent and someone else does it anyway. Kobe admitted in his personal testimony that he wasn't compelled to give after the criminal trial was over that he could understand why she felt that it was nonconsensual even though he felt that it was. He didn't have to admit that, but he did. It doesn't prove him guilty or innocent, but it draws attention to how a situation like that can be terrible even if it's not being formally adjudicated. Your take on this is disturbing and in this era where we have so much evidence of the rich and powerful resorting to assault, it's hard to take seriously.

Still, the survivor moved on with her life and never sought public attention. Kobe moved on with his and seemed to redouble his efforts toward his family, as his wife was by his side through all of it. It's actually incredible to imagine what Vanessa Bryant must be going through as she lost her daughter and husband and is again going to have to be in the public eye for the worst possible reasons.

It's been a long few hours.
I'm surprised how many so close to Kobe are able to comment.
Jerry West, Magic, and others.
Media heads just have no shame.
I really wish they'd have some decency and let people breathe before commenting on a recent death.
Give it a day.

Exactly. My girls are old enough now that they don’t want hugs anymore but I just forced hugs on them. Fuck their feelings.

Orange Coast College baseball coach John Altobelli, wife and daughter die in helicopter crash with Kobe Bryant


Orange Coast College John Altobelli died in a helicopter crash along with Kobe Byrant and three others in Calabasas Sunday, Jan. 26, 2020.

Orange Coast College baseball coach John Altobelli was among the victims of the helicopter crash that also killed former Lakers star Kobe Bryant, OCC assistant coach Ron La Ruffa confirmed Sunday, Jan 26.

Altobelli’s brother Tony, Orange Coast College’s sports information director, told CNN that Altobelli’s wife Keri and daughter Alyssa also were among the crash victims. Alyssa was a club basketball teammate of Bryant’s 13-year-old daugther Gianna Bryant who also was killed in the crash. The other victims have not yet been identified.

Tony Altobelli was walking around Balboa Peninsula when he got a text message that Bryant died in a helicopter crash. So he texted Orange Coast College women’s basketball coach Sammy Doucette who had been with Bryant’s Mamba Sports Academy before going to OCC.


“She said it might be true,” Altobelli said. “Then her next question was, ‘Have you heard from your brother?’ and I was confused. She explained he goes on chopper rides with Kobe.”


Geez...
