Overheard at the Nationwide, Kobe Memorial Tributes

"I don't care if there was blood all over her clothing!  He was never actually convicted!"

"Rapist, schmapist.  He scored a LOT of points!"

"Sure, he took his 13-year-old daughter up in a helicopter through the mountains.  In a dense fog.  But you can't question his judgment!"

"Maybe a chauffeur-driven limousine should be the ultimate in luxury transportation."

"The settlement is sealed!  And that's final."

"Why couldn't it have been A-Rod???"

"Thank god it wasn't Shaq! He's a national treasure!"

I didn't know Kobe was such a national treasure. His death is being compared to the Kennedy assassination, JFK's because RFK doesn't rate. Kobe was good at basketball for sure, great even, but I missed the part where he took on the role of Christ.

LA traffic is tough, but I do think Sunday at noon it's possible to drive 40 miles without wasting an entire day.

What did Arod ever do to you asshole.

That is the joke, Unknown: how people so irrationally hate A-Rod that they would have preferred to have him dead. And anyone here will tell you that I have generally been a staunch defender of A-Rod.

And by the by, that's MISTER Asshole to you, bub.

That's the thing, Parson Tom. I lost it when I saw the Empire State Building lit up in Lakers colors. The abysmal, maudlin tribute on Colbert yesterday was also way, way over the top.

Hey, I'm always for trials and guilty-until-proven-innocent. But the guy was almost certainly a rapist, and according to many other accounts was a cold, self-serving jerk.

And yes, it's RIDICULOUS to take a helicopter for anything that is not a military mission or an attempt to get medical supplies to an isolated mountain village.

The unnecessary use of climate-ravaging fuels, the noise pollution, AND THE INCREDIBLE DANGER INVOLVED all make it absurd.

HOSS.

I JUST SAW THE DOCUMENTARY "SURVIVING R. KELLY", LAST NIGHT.

BINGED WATCHED 6 EPISODES. GOT DONE AT 3:30 A.M..

YOU WOULD THINK A DOUCHBAG WOULD SUGGEST WISHING IT WERE R. KELLY INSTEAD OF AROD.

PEOPLE SHOULD WATCH THAT DOC AND SEE THE DIFFERENCE.

Platoni! I didn't know Hammerin' Cameron Maybin was on the 2017 Asstros! Why hasn't anyone talked to him about all that banging?



Fuck you Houston, every last ignorant one of you, all slick with retarded ignorant sweat.

TheWinWarblist said...

Also, Hoss, how did you manage to irritate the one remaining A-Rod fan?



Fuck A-Rod a bit. Just a bit. No Ugga Bugga for him. Yet. He better watch himself!

HoraceClarke66 said...

Pretty funny. But yeah, I spent years arguing in defense of A-Rod, and I still think that if Mike Piazza got in the HOF, A-Rod should, too.

ALL-CAPS, I think the dopes are too obsessed with A-Rod to think of anyone else. But I do remember some idiots saying, after John Lennon got killed, 'why couldn't it have been Paul???'

There's always somebody.

I have a problem with changing the NBA logo to feature Kobe's image instead of the silhouette of Jerry West. There is apparently a nationwide on line petition to do so. Seems over the top to me, although not sufficiently over the top to prevent the crash on the hillside in the first place. There is a point here to make, but I am incapable of making it. I was alive when Jack Kennedy was President, and Kobe Bryant is no Jack Kennedy. There was always consent with Jack. Heck, I would have slept with him, or at least shot up and engaged in group hijinks. I would not have engaged in sexual relations with Kobe, and apparently I was not the only one. I stand firm on that point. Hyuk yuk yuk.

HoraceClarke66 said...

Innocent until proven guilty—fine. So Kobe did not do jail time. That's the way it works.

Venerated as some sort of hero and cultural icon if not proven guilty? Mmm, not so much.

The man almost certainly raped that poor young woman. He should not be honored simply because he was stupid enough to have his helicopter fly through the mountains in a fog.

I was livid when I saw a story about changing the NBA logo. Still am. I'm sorry for what happened but that doesn't change the fact that he was a raping jerk. He shouldn't have been in the helicopter because he should have been in prison. They lit the Empire State Building? OMG!
