I hated Kobe, which only means he was incredible and not on my team's roster.
But this has hit me hard as a sports fan. It's hard not to admire his work ethic, talent, and intelligence. He was well on his way to being one of those professional athletes who excelled at life post-retirement. He somehow saved his marriage and was by all accounts an amazing dad to his daughters. RIP, Kobe. Gone way too soon.Jesus wants me for a sunbeam.

This would have been shocking under any circumstances, but the fact that he died with his 13-yr-old daughter on the way to some basketball event with her really ramped up the emotional response. What a tragedy."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

So sad, especially about his daughter. He seemed to be a very, very devoted father. Admirably so.
Interesting perspective.
The stories we tell about Kobe Bryant
By all appearances, he put his life on a very good course, but this still happened and had its own impact. People are messy.Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!
For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."
