Nice find Tales, definately a good read.

Here's what I got out of it:

Kobe is a spoilt, socially incapable human being (though he's learning), who's going through hell and you can't help it but feel sorry for the guy in some respects.

He wanted to rumble Shaq in Lakers practice? LOL

An NBA player carries diamonds with him to give to women he sleeps with on the road. (I knew MJ had class!!)

Kobe bought his wife a $4 million diamond. No diamond is worth $4 million, and no pussy is worth $4 million either. What the hell is this man thinking?

Kobe went out with Sam Cassel look-alike, Brandy. (Check look alikes thread in General Talk :D)

Interesting article, but they try and convince you that because Kobe is a "loner" as they put it, that is the reason he "raped" a girl, ( I cant say wether its true or not true so that's why the "'s). Just because someone is a loner doesnt mean it'll lead to something negative, they are saying that if he wasnt a loner, this wouldnt have happend, which I think is bullshit. Loner or no loner, maybe he just needed some pussy...suddenly the mans a loner cuz he needed pussy (well maybe because he was alone he needed pussy) anyways I hope I made sense about what I feel. None the less, good article.

lol...

Well, as I told some guys before, Kobe seemed to be such a freakish ego-driven young man... Come on, clashing with his family coz they didn't want him to marry so fast... Look what happened... And those bodyguards really made Kobe feel like King Kobe :D

Well I can't see anything wrong to married that girl. I mean, his was/is a grown man. Nobody except him should decide when and to who he will get married too. I think it was more the Father that rejected him . At least that what I read in a article of couple of month ago.

Man, i never knew this about Kobe...i thought he would've been the kind of kid who was popular as hell in High School...well i thought wrong didn't i. Well some of my respect for Kobe goes down the drain. Even though it's not his fault, i do feel sympathetic for him too.

I only read page 1, anybody feel like summarizing page 2 and 3?

Obviously that doesn't look too good, but it's one side of the story and he's yet to be found guilty.

Things aren't looking too good for Kobe. I think I read on the LA Times that the accuser's blood was found on Kobe's shirt. I'm not sure how Kobe's team is going to explain that.
