Kobe and Gigi Bryant Memorial Thread (RIP)

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

Da hell websites you’ve been looking at???

Thought I saw it on the coli!

I guess the only thing I don’t understand is what exactly the end game is when people bring it up. I don’t necessarily mind it since it was a big part of his life, but once we talk about it....then what?

Then nothing really. People have already made up their minds.

What if he intentionally slammed into the mountain?

Perhaps there was an argument and tension on board because they were circling for so long and flying in fog and stressed to get there in time and he just said “you know what, fukk it!!!”?

I know this is a hip hop board but I played the shyt outta this song after my mom died.

They were playing this today at work. Not hip hop, but at the lyrics


Well, I want you to notice
To notice when I'm not around
I know that your eyes see straight through me
And speak to me without a sound

[Chorus]
And I want to hold you
Protect you from all of the things I've already endured
And I want to show you
Show you all the things, that this life has in store for you
And I'll always love you
The way that a father, should love his daughter

[Verse 2]
When I walked out this morning
I cried as I walked to the door
I cried about how long I'd be away for
I cried about leaving you all alone

[Chorus]
And I want to hold you
Protect you from all of the things I've already endured
And I want to show you
Show you all the things, that this life has in store for you
And I'll always love you
The way that a father, should love his daughter

[Verse 3]
So I wanted to say this
'Cause I wouldn't know where to begin
To explain to you what I have been through
To explain where your daddy has been

scrolling down Vanessa Bryant's IG page will crush you.....



i am crushed


never wished sickness on a kid before but i wish gigi was sick in bed that day

 

[CASHAPP]

I didn't know he had a daughter older than Gigi

The taller one is Natalia



per Wiki

Yeah a lot of people got that wrong when the news broke. They assumed Gigi was the oldest

On Vanessa’s IG last month she had a pic up of Natalia driving

Anyone that’s paid any attention to me for the past 15 years knows that I’ve probably never hated on an athlete more than I’ve hated on Kobe. I’ve spent so many hours off and online arguing with his fans. Barbershops, cookouts, Internet forums. Even with my own brother who is the worlds biggest Kobe Stan.

You always hear the cliche that love and hate are the same emotion. I’ve had to come to grips with this being a reality the past few days.

I hated him because deep down I respected him so much.


We grew up as Jordan Stans. He was a god to us. We followed the way he moved, played and the way he wore his shorts and shoes. If we were the best player on the team and got to pick our jersey number we all wanted #23. My entire free throw routine was a direct mimicking of Mike. To the last detail. We would stick out our tongues when we played at the rec center in elementary.

We ALL wanted to be like Mike. The reason I hated on Kobe so much is because he was close to my age and was the only one that came close. He achieved what we always aspired to be. He succeeded where we all failed.

That's deep

That's the power of money.
Transportation/Aviation people hate to let big money clients down.

I'm sorry but Kobe would have cursed me the fukk out about
not going. I wouldn't have cared if I was the 2nd string or back-up pilot.

Everybody would still be alive because of my refusal
to fly in those weather conditions.

These guys have instincts, and I'm sure his gut was warning him.
They all take chances like that. Some make it, some don't

I imagine Kobe saying: we'll be fine, just get us there I'll even pay double

Pilot: but we're not supposed to in this weather...

Kobe: you're a professional at this I'm not worried.

Some of yalls hate was overboard. Calling him a rapist and shyt. Clowning the fact that he didn’t have a son and laughing about it. Ima let y’all cook with the sorrow then ima make a thread and put y’all accounts on blast.

no need to try and delete, I have the receipts
