Kobe Bryant dies

Sports figures are at least as much media members these days as they are athletes.

I have no problem with the thread being here.

Okay, I'll post all my sports threads in this forum from now on.

Go for it, hoss.

Kobe Bryant won an Oscar for Best Animated Short in 2018

Donald Trump, former Apprentice star, elected President of the United States



I can do this all night, hoss.

Start another thread then.

But why would you?

How about instead of always wagging your finger you warn WAB?

WAB and Diacanu run roughshod over Media Central like it’s their own little fiefdom. They are constantly harassing and trolling and flaming and all you and the others do is wag a finger at them from time to time. It’s time to make them heel.

Look at this crap. He’s spitting in your face.

Stop letting them slide on their behavior in Media Central.

I'm making a valid point, regardless of one's personal opinion of me.

You have to accept that people are treated differently here. It's not a democracy.

Pot, meet kettle.

And in the interest of decorum, I'm done with this thread.

Kobe Bryant and his daughter are dead. Several other people that the public doesn't know are also dead. Sounds like a perfect opportunity to jack up Media Central with petty nonsense.

Stay classy WAB.

Already have. Just want it on display for all to see.

WAB and Diacanu have a free hand in Media Central and no mod will call them on it. But the mods will step in and wag their fingers when someone responds to WAB & Diacanu.

You might as well rename this forum W&D's Media House.

The point is valid but it's best discussed in the Help Desk. Not in Media Central and certainly not by trying to force the mods to move it to the Red Room or spamming up the thread with non-Kobe stuff Hoss.

The death toll is up to 9 people. Kobe, his 13 year old daughter and seven others.

So this was no normal size helicopter.

I think it was this one but I can't find anything that for sure says that this copter is his personal one that he owns.

Just stunning and sad.

Never really cared about the NBA beyond wanting the Suns to win, just treated it as a league to idly root for whoever had good logos or whatever when I glanced over the standings. But Kobe was the superstar of his era, the next Michael Jordan, or whoever you want to compare to before #23. Iconic. I feel for his family and his fans.

Yeah but he was also a rapist. Red Room would be more appropriate (though Media Central works fine, as long as we can talk about how he was a rapist).

Piloting your own fixed wing aircraft is not uncommon, but piloting your own rotary wing is very rare. Regardless I'm curious as to what caused the crash - mechanical failure, blade hit an obstruction?

it sure looked cool as hell!

Or you could have a second thread in the Red Room concentrating on the rapist part.

I did post a Red Room thread.

Yeah but you didn't post it right.

Instead of "Kobe Bryant dies in helicopter crash" you should have written "Rapist rapes mountain by crashing helicopter into it."

I see the internet doesn't miss a beat, there's already memes out there with GTA Kobe flying a helicopter into a mountain and the like.

This is his daughter that has been reported to have died with him.

Kiss your family and tell you love them every day when you walk out the door. You never know which day will be your last.

Link?

Very true! But if you do know it will be your last - run up a big ass credit card bill, bang some high quality hookers, and run with scissors!

I can’t find it, a coworker told me about it.

I just stumbled across this gem in my newsfeed.

It seemed redundant to point out he was a rapist. It's the thing he's most famous for.
