Kobe Bryant raped a 19 year old girl in CO and settled out of court with her.

And then bought his wife a 4 million dollar diamond.

The most remarkable thing about Kobe in my mind was the fact that he was in an SNES game and on the cover of a Saturn game. Dude had a long ass career.

That was a good ass game.

And I gotta give props to Ari Shaffir for going full Jeselnik and PFZing out on twitter.

Fantastic fuckup.
Whose the racist now?!

 

[Mrs Paul]

He sounds like Ben Roethlisberger. (ugh)

Still, even if you didn't like Bryant -- I don't follow basketball, so I really don't feel one way or another about the dude -- at least can't we manage to feel some pity for the fact that there were kids in the crash as well? THEY weren't rapists, I don't think.

 

[Guts]

Welp, there goes her career.

 

[Mrs Paul]

Holy shit. SOMEBODY'S going to be filing for unemployment pretty soon.

 

[Mel Feasance]

Almost as if she paused to make sure she said niggers instead of Lakers.

What I've heard was Kobe, his daughter, a friend of the daughter and her parents were on board.

These things must be said in response to the notion that Kobe was a perfect man. Lots of people are eulogizing him as a perfect man, and that can't go unchallenged.

Shes going to get the Randy Marsh treatment.
"HEY! Isnt that the "NIGGER" girl?!?!?!"

 

[Cedric_Eff]

I loved watching Kobe as a kid. Sad stuff man, F.

 

[MuuMuu Bunnylips]

Well, she's not wrong...

 

[Calooby]

I don't see any issue with this.

 

[Randall Fragg]

So, what's her account on here?

 

[Racist Trash]

Ouch he Colin McRae'd it, seriously don't use helicopters as some car they require ridiculous amounts of maintenance and weather conditions can fuck you hard no amount of money is going to be able to stop you if you fly too close to elevated areas without proper visuals.

 

[The Last Stand]

I swear people have no respect for anything nowadays. She knew what she was doing, dumb bitch. Hope it was worth it.

 

[OnMoTi]

She said "Nakers." Listen more closely. There's no difference in the "akers" part when she corrects herself and says "Lakers."

 

[HollaGemini]

Theyre very unhappy!!
Enjoy the monster you created
DRINK!!!!

Even regular airplanes can still be a danger too, see John Denver and Peter Tomarken's deaths from private plane crashes as examples.

Oh wow How do you even have a slip like that?
