Sex And Kobe

By now I am sure we have all learned about the great Kobe Bryant's escapades in Colorado. Now I should start off by saying I think Kobe is a joke. In life and in basketball. They guy rides Shaq's coat tails. The biggest laugh I have had from this is from people mentioning things about his 'street cred' (he has none which is why he can't sell shoes goes the theory). Some have even suggested that this is all a ploy to gain this 'street cred'. That is obviously untrue. If he was trying to gain street cred he would either wave a gun around or actually be involved in a shooting.

But alas, he is from one of the richest parts of Philly (when he wasn't living in Europe with his dad). He will never have street cred. He will never be able to thug it up like the Iverson's. He is another Grant Hill (son of two very successful rich parents). This is actually a good thing. Believe it or not. Being NOT a thug is a good thing and you think people would strive to achieve that status. Not today. All people want to do is be a thug. That is why you see upper-middle class white kids with their big old pants, and doo-rags (is that the right spelling? Did Webster's add this word yet?) on their heads.

With my rant about thug life out of the way (I do know a thing or two about it, being from the mean streets of Norwell, MA - Cole school district), I can begin on the actual accusations. Ok, here is what happened that day in Colorado. A young women (19) is just sitting around minding her own business. A famous( yet over rated) basketball player arrives on the scene. Thinking he is god's gift to women (like all athletes) the athlete approaches this woman. This is where the scenario can branch.
