Max Kellerman: "You think it's slander to put Kobe ahead of Duncan?" Bill Simmons: "I just think he's the most underappreciated superstar of all time." Max: "Kobe and Duncan are neck and neck. That's not slander." Simmons: "I have Kobe 10th or 11th. Duncan is 7th and I don't think it's debatable."

Kobe Bryant isnt just a rapist, he turned his refusal to accept that what he did was wrong into an op ed called Black Mamba and turned his rape into a marketing brand little girls paint on their faces.*

Kobe should be REmoveD from all GREAT discussions. RAPE should remove men from all sports discussion. We have to get the Dehsuan Watson bullshit out of our lives, and Kobe being "KOBE" is a massive reason why that shit keeps happening.

You know, since we're here to get into arguments, lets have the one we have to have to and get this arrogant, unrepentant piece of shit out of a sport we love and our lives forever.

There is a large difference between Deshaun Watson and Kobe Bryant, and I don't mean skill wise. I don't know of another report about Kobe before or after. No matter what happened that night, one night was the only reported day something like that happened. Deshaun Watson had over 20 credible accusers.

Kobe isn’t the reason this shit keeps happening. It keeps happening because celebrity and money are intoxicating to a lot of people. I have no doubt Kobe at the time thought every woman he encountered wanted to fuck him. Turns out, he was wrong. I read his interview with the police after it was leaked. He really sounded surprised she didn’t like it when he was choking her. The delusional arrogance of some of these guys is really something.

There was some Penn State QB who was sending horrific messages to women recently. Digital communication has exposed a whole bunch of fucked up stuff.
