LA area teacher says Kobe was a horrible person, rapist, and responsible for Shaq getting trade

[AtiliusRegulus]

That sounds a lot more feasible than what Sudanese proposed.

Sudanese is not talking about the pearly gates and a "judgment day". He's talking about how we act (or should act) towards other humans after they pass on.

Neither was Atilius, unless we read two completely different posts.

Shaq got rid of Shaq.
He was lazy, ego driven and disrespectful to his employer.
He demanded a trade.
They gave him his request.

Not true. If Kobe wanted Shaq around, Shaq would have still been a Laker.

[Sudanese Sensation]

I don't agree with that.

Unless the decedent was Hitler or Charlie Manson there isn't much to be served by criticizing him or her in death. The teacher showed poor judgment.

I thought you were making a more general statement, if you're talking just about this teacher than I agree.

I post on political boards but I keep my politics out of Anger General. That's how I have lasted here as long as I have. I don't come here to do battle with the whole board. There are posters who thrive on that. Good for them. That being said on political boards when a disliked person dies or becomes ill there are inevitably threads about how happy people are because the disliked person died or became ill. I always post if you feel that way it's best not to post anything.

And the Shaq-Kobe "divorce" was sixteen years ago. That teacher needs to let it go.

You've got it backwards Ati. I can make you lose your shit with virtually no effort. Even Clevetown is a bigger challenge.

it was incumbent upon Kobe for his own vanity to win a ring without shaq and that three peat team.

You need to find inner peace.

I'm at peace with myself, those close to me and the world. I'm not the one salivating over a civil war and seeking the death of others who don't share my opinions.

Sleep tight.

As if you have a clue ya retard.

To put it idiomatic English it served no fucking purpose to shit on a local and universal icon, one whom most if not all of the students looked up to. The clown who served up those comments is better suited to work at a swap meet. He lack the judgment to be around impressionable minds.

That being said the canonization of Kobe Bryant is a bit much but there will be a time to look at the man's whole life, just not now.

Well of course in this case that is true. But saying something like ”When you die all the bad things you did die with you, the good things live on” is gonna draw some stares like

How do you figure? Even if Shaq was the consummate employee and Kobe wanted him gone, the Lakers would have traded Shaq.

It was time to turn the team over to Kobe. Unfortunately Phil and Shaq could not see it.

After taking a year off, Phil saw things more clearly.

Few coaches rarely see the long term vision of the team.

Pat Riley did in the mid 80s with the Lakers.

And he went on to become one of the greatest general managers in nba history.

he was a horrible person. he was spoiled, bratty and entitled. even the housemaid sued him and his wife. But from what I've seen he had competently turned his life around in the past 10 years. His involvement in charity work, mentoring, start ups, even going to church consistently are proof of this. the dude even flew a whole high school class to italy for a damn vacation. I don't care how rich a person is, i've never seen anyone that generous.

When you die all the bad things you did die with you, the good things live on.

Kinda like how on Judgment Day the things the born again are judged for only the good things they did for Christ and the bad things are burned up, never to be charged against us. And the opposite is true for the unbelievers. The good things they did in the body are burned up, useless, and only the sinful things they did will be measured against them. I believe it will be their degree of hell.

Even if those things were true, which they weren't. It still boils down that Kobe didn't want him there. End of story.
