What's next, a statue of Hitler at the Simon Wiesenthal Center?
According to a few inmates...

If he played for the Lakers.
Nailed jump shots(and women)
...then absolutely.

Wasn’t he married at the time?
This is just the one that cost him, call me a hater if you want but I have zero respect or admiration for ANY man who cheats on their wife…zero.

George Burns cheated on his wife Gracie Allen goes the story, he bought her a silver serving dish as penitence.

She was hoping he would cheat again as she needed some more silver pieces.

I'm sure saint kobe bought some bling for the mishap.

Oh I remember it well.
He paid Vanessa a lot more overall than the $2.5 his side piece got.

Kind of a fitting quote by Kant. Everyone sees Kobe as they choose to see him. Some here see him as a Saint, others as evil. No changing either's view.
Religion, politics and sports I guess.

I don't think he was a saint, and I never thought of him as evil either.
I thought he was a guy who cheated on his wife then threw money at it when he was a young man, as young millionaires are prone to do.
To me, no amount of skill and talent makes a man. It’s the man who defines himself.

This is my outlook in general. No amount of money or talent makes a person anything more than human. One's actions though, those can make one less than human. One can spend the rest of their life trying to regain their lost humanity.

Man, no one on this site has done dumb shit when they were in their early 20's that they learn from or regret later in life. Not dismissing that he cheated on his wife but and don't agree with him doing so. No, I do not believe he rapped her either. Chase that money!

Everyone on this site is perfect and never does Anything wrong!

Except for me. But I blame it on the typical river behavior and misspent youth (peer pressure).

So basically...
If someone has the audacity to think differently &doesn't worship an athlete, they're a hater?
Phuking stupid(liberal)logic...
If you say so. Has nothing to do politics. The majority of people in so cal love him. You obviously don’t. You will probably never see the statue or a game. So why would you care or anyone else for that matter if they would never even go to the stadium to see the statue or a game.
