Woj, KTLA, TMZ: Kobe Killed in Helicopter Crash

[Robceltsfan]

How many hours have we spent collectively discussing Kobe together over the last 15 years? I never would have imagined that this community would outlive Kobe Bryant. This is all very surreal.

You should change your name back...

He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.

Yeah kind of eerie how I had been disavowing Kobe so much lately. I had just been talking about his WNBA/NBA comments earlier today IRL. Also eerie, my wife and I had just last week been talking about how since Michael Jackson's death there hasn't been a single event come close to it in terms of impact or wow factor. We had watched the 'Living with Michael Jackson' documentary.

No matter what, Kobe will always be among my most admired athletes, a true legend. Still really doesn't feel real tbh, maybe tomorrow it'll sink in.

I really, really hope they weren't flying some of her teammates to practice as well.

I just read that they said a total of 9 dead.

I don't think anyone cares about that right now because surely it's not the first time that's been said at some point in time...

Madness couldn’t resist being a degenerate edgecuck even in Kobe’s death. A new low.

Everyone reacts differently, the truth is none of us know Kobe personally, it really shouldn't affect us that much, it's almost stranger that his death affects us so much.

Devastated....Lets not kid ourselves. Kobe was the initial LIFEBLOOD and driving force of this piece of home we call Anger General. The days of standing back to back with @thedangerouskitchen and throwing haymakers for PAGES with y'all Kobe Kids was great fun and high comedy...trolling has never, and will never be the same.

The world just doesn't feel right...AT ALL right now. The Kobe news put a dagger in my heart...the news of his daughter twisted that dagger...pulled it out and...and gutted me with it.

MUCH love to Laker Nation, and the Family.

Undies, before you change screen names I suggest to keep it out of your respect for KB.

You don't have to know someone personally to touched at a time like this...Regardless if we didn't know him, some of us are decent human being that have hearts...❤❤❤❤

I dunno, I think his story parallels a lot of his fans they can identify with. His dad's career aside, he took a big risk turning pro out of high school. Finds a little success, then fucks up, then builds over from just about nothing to become a winner again. Not to mention becoming a better father and entrepreneur in retirement.
