Why is she doing that?

[MisterAmazing]

fantastic. now kennethgriffen and ripthekik will finally leave the forum, since they wont be able to pay for internet once they spend all their money on this.

Bean's moms got some big ass titties.

[DonDadda59]

Why is she doing that?

The first stan jumping off the bandwagon now that Bean's done. I was wondering when it was going to start.

But your mom being the first... that's gotta sting. I imagine her doing the scowl/underbite while selling away all of her son's precious memories for money she doesn't need. Ruthless :(

I believe LeBron's mom did this as well but she sold his stuff on ebay while he was still in high school

[mateoboz]

I know he's Kobe Bryant, and he's got his 5 rings and MVP trophy and Olympic medals, but why wouldn't he want this stuff? And why would she do this? Does she need money that bad? Are her and Kobe not on speaking terms? She's selling the custom championship ring he paid to have made for her? That seems pretty cold and heartless. I don't understand...:confusedshrug:

Looks like Princess Diana.

[Unstoppabull]

Damn Kobe must've cut her own mom off.

[Legends66NBA7]

Heh, kinda does.

Who the hell wrote that article? A 3rd grader with down syndrome and only a basic understanding of grammar could've written a better article than that.

[kennethgriffin]

if kobe really wants to stick it to her

he should bid anonymously on everything. then send her the check where she notices his signature. and in the space where you put a memo/note. he should write "your welcome"


and yes... it most likely has to do with vanessa. when they got married kobe and his mom didnt talk for a long time until they had their second daughter i think. i think they started talking again during kobes troubles with vanessa. and now it seems theyre back to hating each other


it was mostly due to her being spanish

Kobe's mom is racist? Or maybe it was her protecting her son from a gold digger? What makes more sense to you?

Also Kobe's mom was hot.

Disappointed with his son's marriage almost two years ago, Joe Bryant is no longer part of Kobe's life, but Laker star hopes that changes...


"My mom asked me to leave him a ticket, so of course I did," Kobe said, his voice dropping. "But I knew he wouldn't come down and see me. He never does." He didn't wave or call out. He didn't visit the locker room. He didn't speak to the son from whom he has been quietly estranged for nearly two years.

While declining to offer details of a rift made public by his father, Kobe quietly confirmed this week that Joe is uncomfortable that Vanessa, a Latina, is not African American, and he is uneasy with Bryant's selfless devotion to her.

Said Kobe: "Sure, I miss my father. Who wouldn't miss his father?"

Said Joe: "Once he decided to get married, it's his life now."

His parents did not come to Kobe and Vanessa's wedding two summers ago. Joe has not seen the couple's new house in Orange County. Joe has never met the couple's first child, his granddaughter Natalia, who was born in January. When Kobe's Philadelphia-area high school retired his number last season, his parents sat in one section of the bleachers, while Vanessa sat in another section.

"It's not about basketball," Kobe said. "It's about having somebody to go to a ballgame with. It's about having somebody to hang out with. That's what I miss. Sure I hope we can get back together," Kobe said at the Laker practice facility Friday. "When the time is right, if he wants to come and sit down and discuss things, we can do that."

kobe's parents are racist. i thought everyone knew the story

exactly kobe is really a hero in shakespearean and motion picture sense. the guy bucks rigid social designations and boundaries out of dedication to his woman. while lebron still hasn't even put a ring on his baby mama.

[SwayDizzle]

Damn, that's quite sad

[secund2nun]

Kobe's parents are racist B*tches who obviously care more about skin color than their own children and grand children. If I was Kobe I would tell them to go F themselves and wouldn't feel once ounce of remorse that they aren't in my life.

Yes because literally everything is about Lebron and Kobe. Kobe gets a new car? Impecible taste, far superior to the beater Lebron drives. Kobe goes to an art gallery? Man, Kobe's all about that high culture, show's superior intellect to Lebron #FineArtBe. Kobe goes to the supermarket? Wow, Kobe showing he's a normal guy like everyone else, unless that snobby elitist Lebron.

Get a life dude. Obsessing over 2 guys who you will never meet and don't care about you in any way is very sad. If your family read your posts they would be concerned and dissappointed

Breathe... I believe they have reconciled.

His parents are old and old fashioned. They didn't want their soon to be star son to marry some young Mexican chick instead of a nice black chick.

And yes she was. Where do you think Kobe got his looks from?

This.

[OldSkoolball#52]

Ive heard of Joe Bryant mentioned frequently at various times thru Kobes career.career. This is the first I ever found out he was a bigot.

Boy if he were a white guy who disapproved of interracial marriage his name could not be mentioned on this board or others without it turning into a 100 page bashfest.

Guess dats dat old double standard thing.

Kobe quietly confirmed this week that Joe is uncomfortable that Vanessa, a Latina, is not African American, and he is uneasy with Bryant's selfless devotion to her.
I read something a while ago that indicated the situation was a bit deeper than only involving racial bias.

Its on the record that Kobe's parents thought that she was too young and that he should wait awhile before making up his mind.

I also read that Kobe and Vanessa "messed around" when she was underage (consent is 18 in Cali), and that her family threatened to go public if he didn't put the ring on her finger.

That article is what 6 or 7 years old now? Kobe and his parents have long since reconciled. I know Joe was at the 2010 NBA Finals, and the article about Joe in SI last year made it seem that the mother was back in with Kobe as well.

once a racist. always a racist.

is it just coincidence that his parents are again distant since kobe got back with his wife

[9erempiree]

I think they are selling Kobe's stuff because it's about damn time. Unless he wants to keep it for himself which I doubt Kobe cares.

It comes to a point where Kobe is no longer a kid and all those awards and accolades can be sold to fans who appreciate them.

It's like all your awards that you left at your parents. It comes at a time when they will put them away or throw them away if you no longer need them.

It can be sold for charity too.

I don't think they're racist just because they didn't want their son to marry this woman. Maybe that's just a family being protective of their child.

And Vanessa is no saint herself if you believe the things reported about her. Maybe they just don't like her because of her character. And they're in a much better position to determine what that character is than any of us are.

Big deal. Most white fathers would be "uncomfortable" with their daughter dating a black man. Same with most black men having daughters dating white men. Doesn't make them racist.

That's the culture people born in the 60s and 70s grew up in. I think there is a middle ground between being a racist and having reservations about who your son/daughter is marrying based on their race.

Well, seeing as how Joe denied that he didn't want Kobe to marry his wife because she was Latina, I believe we have a bit of situation. Joe said that they believed he was too young to get married(Arn Tellem did the same thing) and tried to get him to draft a pre-nup. Of course he refused, and he's gonna feel real stupid when Vanessa re-files those divorce papers like Juanita Jordan did.
