The Yankees Pick Up Another Fan
Seems like the Yankees are developing quite a following in the NBA. You may remember that last year it was LeBron James, now it is Kobe Bryant. To be fair, Kobe was only responding to comments that Curt Schilling wrote on his blog, (sidebar: can you think of a bigger attention whore than Curt Schilling in recent history? The guy makes Reggie Jackson look like a wallflower.) but it is a good get. Now if only one of them could pitch....
Comments
no doubt, Schilling's need for attention is amazing.
however, I believe his version of what went down in those huddles etc., question is, do you want Kobe on your side? Kobe is on the A-list of prima-donna's in sports. According to legend, he complained about the type of private plane the Lakers team sent him to Colorado on when he had to go defend himself against the rape allegations a few years ago. The Lakers (whom I don't like) had no obligation to use company resources to send him anywhere to help him solve his personal problems.

BL- No, I am not a Kobe fan and to be honest, I haven't really watched the Finals at all because I really can't root for either team, but I did think his comment was funny.

What? You expected him to pay for own plane? On his salary? Have you no compassion for the poor man? He's got children to feed.

Actually Greg, I don't think he does have children and judging by the way he had sex with the high school chick in Colorado, I think he may be doing it wrong if he is trying to procreate.

Tim,
I thought I remembered Bryant having admitted to adultery rather than rape, so I thought I'd look him up on Wikipedia. It says there that Kobe has a wife and two daughters. The procreation has already begun . . .

Greg, I stand corrected....I believe he settled out of court on a rape charge while stating it was a consenual relationship but the details of how they...umm, did it, were leaked and you can't make babies that way. Obviously, someone must have taken him aside and given him a pointer.
