.....lots and lots and lots of sporting personalities have ‘erred in the past’...I still don’t see how whether Tyson Fury should be given this award has any bearing on something that Kobe Bryant did in his past...

Beso 25-02-2020 04:43 PM

He hasn't even said anything that grim considering it's only one man's opinion.

I was drawing a comparison from a recent thread on here, given the comparisons made were Danny Baker and Alistair Stewart again recent threads...you don't seem to have any issue with those comparisons Ammi?

the thread is about does what famous sports stars say or do in the past have bearing on how popular they are now - do we forgive male sports stars more

Tyson has said some hateful stuff and now he is lauded as a king. Bryant raped a girl but people ignored that and lauded him as a basketball god.

I don't particularly care if he thinks women should be at the sink, I know I wont be so that's that :laugh:

In 1992, Mike Tyson was convicted of rape and sentenced to six years in prison. People love him now and he starred in the hangover film

He can think what the hell he wants, and air those thoughts as far as I'm concerned..lucky buggers 6ft 80 inches, his wife's frying pan will just about graze his belly button.

Me on the other hand just wouldn't air them...but I should still be allowed to think them..whatever they are.

That's where social media comes in..people are not themselves.

.... but there was no comparison to be drawn with that thread and this, though...no one has said that what Kobe did was okay in any way...

It's all pretty grim

Black Dagger 25-02-2020 05:05 PM

He's a toxic bellend. A talented one but I don't support his work bc he's an awful person and that's that.

Kobe Bryant was a rapist? :umm2:

In July 2003, Bryant was charged with sexually assaulting a 19-year-old employee of the Lodge and Spa at Cordillera in Edwards, Colo. He admitted that he didn’t explicitly ask for consent and initially denied even having sex with the woman. He left a bruise on her neck and drew blood from her skin. After Bryant’s defense team badly intimidated the victim and smeared her reputation, she refused to testify. After the criminal case was dismissed, Bryant issued an apology that said, in part, “After months of reviewing discovery, listening to her attorney, and even her testimony in person, I now understand how she feels that she did not consent to this encounter.” He later settled for an undisclosed sum in a civil suit.

Yes you are right because it was never mentioned at all, all has been forgiven

...apparently it wasn’t ‘forgiven’ though...I’ve read that in 2018, he was dropped from a film festival jury directly because of it..

He has inspired so many groups of people since he got his life ‘back’ .. anyone fighting against depression, anxiety ,alcohol and drugs excesses and even those fighting obesity.

Everyone he meets falls in love with him.. so many stories from giving £7 million away to charity about 18 months ago to little things like buying the live lobsters and releasing them into the harbour ..
