Default Kobe Bryant remark
First off, I don't follow basketball, or give a crap about any of the players. That being said, I do catch sports highlights on the news and am just amazed how motherf'rs get their panties in a wad about an anti gay remark. Who really gives a shit what he called the ref? I guess he got fined 100 large which for him isn't much, but it's the point of the thing. Is everyone in this country deeply offended by a bunch of BS?? I guess everyone is a victim these days. Just WTF???

I honestly have no idea what you are talking about but the problem is that most of these idiots get offended because they think they should be offended... not because they actually are.

He got benched for a technical foul and called the ref a fag or homo or something, they just said "anti gay", so it has to be one of those. They blurred over his mouth so you couldn't tell. I caught it on Headline news this morning. Just f'n ridiculous. Welcome to America the offended. 100k fine for him basically being pissed and spouting off???? Whatever....

He should have called him a retard. Apparently it's still PC to pick on people with low IQs.

From what I have seen about a lot of the NBA crew, they should be the last people to throw stones at anybody.

Arguing and fighting is no fun when you can't name call.

If kobe called me a fag I would be obligated to call hi a n. Then the fun could start. Without it there's no point in fighting.

Yeah I don't care!

The whole situation is pathetic. However, if that's in the rules, oh well.

Stupid is as much as we continue to allow it.

Interesting how I get offended if people take the Lord's name in vain (large percentage of Christians in the world, especially when compared to the percentage of homosexuals), but they don't get charged for that.

I doubt the "offended" would last long in OT. Here or the other place.

It's a blatant violation of his rights. The only person that has the right to get offended is the person he said it to. Kobe has the right to say what he wants and everyone has the right to boo him or not buy his merchandise. The morons on PTI and ATH all got it wrong by jumping on the gay community bandwagon and attacking Kobe. Journalists should be the first to defend someone's right to free speech.
