Some people love to be outraged/offended.
I think the most logical response to the death of an athlete/celebrity you had no real life relationship with is indifference. Being offended on Kobes behalf for something said about him on a chitty room of degenerates is silly.

Kobe was an assassin like Michael. The sports world will always favor that trait in their heroes

Compare Dale Earnhardt getting killed at Daytona...

Everyone forgetting we will all die soon from Coronavirus. Kobe may have escaped the misery of a slow painful death from that illness.

Who knows, maybe someone on that plane had the virus...
(Feel a bit dirty cause of 13 year old daughter. That's heartbreaking.)

Legit Hall of Famers that were well know around in and outside of America and adored by many fans

Was huge when it happened, at least domestically. Doubt it had huge international traction.
Life was different before the explosion of social media

Nah. Trump is billionaire baby that turned into a bully for the billionaires (him and the others). He's less than human. There are the rats. Then there are the lice. Then there is Trump. This guy just protects his billionaires and couldn't care less about average Joe like all of you in here. Plus, he's a thief (stealing Syrian oil at gunpoint) and he murdered someone named Soleimani. He allowed red flag gun laws to start up, and the illegals are still pouring in while he does nothing. He doesn't govern me and he doesn't represent me. Case closed. I'm out.

If I remember correctly, ESPN and everyone talked about it....then nada
Kobe's death is going to fill my social media feeds for a while.
Guys, again, people die everyday. The only reason we care is because of the microscope they're under. One that they'd cut a left nut off to disappear.
I'm sure the Bryant family wants their privacy.
Let's just look at tomorrow's card.

Does anyone have their ear to the ground in LA? Were there murmurings of Kobe potentially getting into coaching like so many of his legendary predecessors that he spent his whole life proving he deserved a seat at their table with the Michaels, magics and Larry's? It didn't seem like he wanted to pursue that route but that was on the surface
