Pine Barrens Mafia Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 I'm trying to get over the idea of taking a helicopter to a kid's basketball practice.
Doc Brown Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 Stuart Scott covering Kobe's 81 points. Two of the best at their craft that died way too young. 2
Steptide Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 Now seeing more of his kids were in the helicopter? Seriously hope that's wrong
BillsFan4 Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 (edited) Seems to be confirmed in multiple places now. Edited January 26, 2020 by BillsFan4 1

Expand If you were a multi-millionaire in LA you'd do the same. Philip Rivers helicoptered to the Chargers facility every day since the team moved there. Probably saves 4-5 hours stuck in a car each day. 2

I remember hearing the news about Magic being HIV positive on the car radio on the way back from a work golf tournament outside Columbia, SC right after hurricane Hugo. The course had lost almost every tree, and they were piled up in areas like mountains. It was downright spooky! I remember very specific details about that entire day. Expand Yes, those things tend to stick. I remember the Payne Stewart tragedy very well -- and I hate golf! I was glued to the news as the macabre details emerged -- most notably an airplane on autopilot carrying a bunch of lifeless bodies. Given who Kobe was -- and the timing with Lebron -- this will be 1). legendary and 2). fodder for conspiracy theorists. My wife cried. My wife's family 12 time zones away cried. I know I'll never forget today. 2

NewEra Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 what really upsets me: Kobe spent his final moments being in fear for his daughters life. Just not fair. 3 1

HIV was a distant thing so that elevated HIV to not being just a gay person disease. the issue of where were you when would only occur with local Lakers fans. Kobe is not st that celebrity level. Expand I’m not a local Lakers fan, or even an NBA fan, but I thought I’d remember. Thanks for correcting me on that! (I still think I’ll remember, for the reason I already mentioned.)
BillsFan4 Posted January 26, 2020 Posted January 26, 2020 Man, it’s tough even trying to watch the pro bowl right now. All the announcers keep getting choked up and it keeps making me get all choked up again.

How scared those poor kids had to be... ?

They pulled it together real quick too, props to them. 1
