Bro check your feelings. This thread originated from that tragic news detailing everything of that tragedy.

We have a thread dedicated to the memories of Kob & GiGi.

I won't create another thread for this news. I have no interest in arguing with this either and won't try to defend why I chose to post this news here. Its a discussion forum...folks can choose to discuss this here or not. You don't want to. Then keep it moving.

'In Memory of Kobe Bryant'

This is the title of the thread.

If you can't honestly see how inappropriate discussing litigation less than 2 hours after a powerful, moving, heartfelt memorial that everyone is talking about...

If you would rather put this trash in here than simply start a new discussion for this specific topic...

If you would rather be THIS obtuse and not respect the positive vibes flowing after such a beautiful ceremony...

If you would rather discuss this than the ceremony or a memory of Kobe...

My God dude...

Not cool homie...not cool at all. Discretion matters...

Beautiful tribute. Rest easy Kob and Gigi.

Hopefully this is closure for everyone. Immediate family and friends need to battle one day at a time and create a new "normal" or "reality"

Was there such a beautiful ceremony. Vanessa showed so much strength. Wish more could speak but we would’ve been there all day.

Really classy of Vanessa to share her personal loss with us like that. What can I say about MJ. That was amazing.

Brah, I'm dead inside right now.

This man meant everything to me for so long.

I lean on my family for guidance, love and care.

The joy just isn't there right now for much else.

I've had friends pass, family members pass and felt grief. Never have I had a person I didn't know bring so many tears. I now understand the meaning surreal. I'm feeling it.

I think the fact that is was so sudden, so violent, they were so young, parents and children together, since I am a father of three teens, it got me. I mean, it could be anyone.

Haven't posted here in years. I totally agree and understand with where you are coming from.

I was really hoping to be one of the few to win the lotto to pay respects in person but was unable to get a ticket.

In some ways it still doesn't feel real to me and I'm not sure it ever will.

I'm glad that it doesn't feel real. I think that's a gift to help me cope. Even so, I never cried anywhere near so much in my life about anything.

I’ve been crying internally all day and it doesn’t stop. Can’t even stomach watching the entire memorial service. Kobe I miss you so much!

Watch rookie Kobe Shaq games with Chick on the mic. They'll make you smile.

Just watching highlights from yesterday's memorial opened up all those feelings again and got me crying like a baby. Powerful emotions for a man and his daughter who I didn't even know personally. That right there speaks volumes to Kobe's greatness.

The fact that the censors didn't pick up the punchline of one of Shaq's jokes is beyond me, I beat they have a 5 second delay for everything live soon enough.

Hated the fact that signal was lost during most of Shaq's speech, had to go online to see it. MJ's got me because you never hear him speak publicly and I didn't know he was THAT close to Kobe.

Probably not a dry eye in the house, a very solid tribute. Rob sure does have a knack for words...

I'm happy that the Lakers, the day before Kobe's memorial, beat the Celtics. So fitting.
