I think most of us would agree that we would rather hear honesty, rather see a player pissed of,rather see that passion, than the standard "Phaneuf-Kessel" bullshit answers we hear far to often from so many professional players.

I love honesty in all facets of life. Media and sports really bug me how things get portrayed, taken, and players go about handling it. Not really a huge fan of him, but one thing I always appreciated about Kobe.... Love him or hate him he speaks his mind, says what he wants, and shows more passion than anyone else on the court. I think some wish he could channel it in different ways yet that candidness is rare in an athlete and admirable imo.

Part of the discussion was media being entitled, searching for drama, and athletes calling it out. Fact you still think Kobe raped that girl shows how misinformed you are on the situation. 0 interest in trying to defend Kobe though as he means nothing to me and possibly the most if not top five polarizing and misunderstood player in sports right now. Hamburg, Germany is the ghetto? That or referring to Newport Beach where I grew up? (Not 1 house <1 million for sale there and had 2 black people and ~10 Mexicans at my school all six years I went there lol).

Your troll game has gotten weak
Ahhhhhh...
I'm not sure but I think he was joking around and didn't actually think you came from a ghetto.

The fact that you think he definitely didn't is a little scary. In the hopes of saving you some stress and legal bills down the road, I should probably point out that if you are having sex with someone and you don't think it's rape but she or he does, that's still rape.

Dude, this shit's important. It's not the 1950s anymore where our sports heroes do no wrong, men are men and boys will be boys, and unless a woman shows up at the police station 10 minutes later bleeding and crying, she's probably making it up. If someone brings up a myth or perpetuates a misunderstanding about this sort of thing, it's got to be clarified.
I probably shouldn't be so snarky though. I'm just disappointed we are not past this (on these boards especially) though and I'm still reading crap like that. For the snark I apologize.
