What I’m calling out are both monumental and tragic events that in the time/place were moment stands still events
The 30 year old ago me combined with what we knew about HIV at the time ... hard to explain
Today ... just straight out tragic
But go ahead and judge people’s opinions and emotions ... particularly mine because you’ve been so “dialed in” with regards to my thoughts in the past
JFC shut up already. He didn't know you and you didn't know him. Go on now and write it in your diary and get it out of your system. Quit fighting for strangers. We all think it sucks, but get a fucking grip Sally.
And another thing. You don't come to HCH and talk to a man like Stalin like that! He was making his bones while you were dating football players. Just who the fuck do you think you are?

You're taking this personally when in reality I didn't judge you at all. I merely gave my opinion that these are two separate tragedies that are apples and oranges.
You also say you're not going anywhere, as if you're standing in defiance of me somehow. You're welcome here, and I am not trying to drive you from HH.
I think you're reacting emotionally to the tragedy (which is understandable) and you're perceiving slights where none exist.

I can’t believe you people worrying about some basketball guy dying when we already have net neutrality and Paris climate accords killing scores of people every day.

"it was a foggy morning, with visibility at less than 60 feet."
"Using binoculars, I was able to see the aircraft had been torn apart and was on fire."

My buddy is a pilot for Alaska and did a Sea-San Diego flight around the same time and he said he couldn’t see shit and was a little scared himself. When he landed he learned Kobe died in a very similar place to where he lost visibility.

What matters is families were ripped apart at their core
And way down the pecking order the world of basketball lost an influencer that had the power to influence both men’s and women’s basketball going forward in a profound way
For as great as Kobe was on the court ... he held the power to be a greater influence off of it
It’s beyond a sad day ...
And fuck anybody that wants to come out with a “I seen it” perspective
Precisely why I can't figure out why anyone would say the day Magic retired was a sadder day.
You know anyone who tweeted that?
I can’t speak to anyone’s age
In 1991 HIV was a death sentence ...
Magic was an active player coming off a trip to the Finals ...
Kobe was retired ...
I’m gutted by all the children involved as it’s beyond horrible
I don’t know how you compare the two ...
I wasn’t yet a teenager for Magic ... I’m in my 40s for Kobe ... maybe that’s jading me a bit
Both are monumental you know were you were hearing the news ... I was and am deeply impacted all day ... I will be for a while
This is so devastating on so many levels ...
Magic’s announcement taught me be careful who you sleep with ...
Kobe is a flat out tragedy ...
What am I supposed to think?
Fuck you for in any way suggesting that my feelings are right, wrong, or anything in between
This sucks ... and I’ve been hurting all day ... and I will be hurting for a while
It’s just bad ... so so bad
Yeah, don’t have unprotected buttsex with guys. You’re fine after that.

Should I call Alaska HR? Guys flying 737s aren’t allowed to get even a little scared.

It could have been embellished. I don’t know dick about flying.

It was. Kobe and his daughter lost what were beautiful lives. And 3 other families lost their’s too.
He’s a top 3-5 all time guy. When the money was on the line, there has been no one more clutch than He.
He’s done a ton of good after retirement, including impacting a ton of kid’s lives for the better. He had his hiccup a long time ago and has been a good man by all accounts since then.
But I’m sorry, I never liked him. As I say above, He’s a great player, a 5 time Champ and lived a hugely contributive life.
I have to admit, I never watched any of his vlogs or the espn thing, or really anything after He retired. Maybe my opinion would have changed if I did.
There’s NO qualitative reason why I disliked Kobe and yesterday’s news stopped my watch like everyone else. It’s as sad a day as we’ve had, Be it sports related, or not in a long time. I feel worse for all of the people who lost their parents, kids, spouses, side pieces and siblings. And I’m sad that the world didn’t get to see all of things that Kobe would have done in a full life.

Got the $1.50 hot dog like a boss. Treated the whole family to lunch. Wife got a smoothie instead.....bitch
Heard the news at the food court. Yelled out “FUCK!” Some guy says....”oh you heard about Kobe too?”
“No... deli mustard is out. Have to use yellow mustard like a poor.”
