    The narrative will be about Lebron, but I think Dame gets closer to 81.

    Yeah, it's looking like the pilot is very at fault here. He thought for some reason he could safely navigate the fog. His experience should have told him otherwise. He brought 9 people to their deaths.

    Kobe's death reminded me of the Busby Babes. Difference is, they were just starting out.

    This logo thing, number retirement, etc all aside, i think the best way to honor his legacy was suggested by someone on twitter: name the All Star MVP trophy after him. He's won it 4x and routinely gunned for it. And all the All Stars look up to him. I think it makes perfect sense.

    $500 in service fee?
    So after you get serviced it seems you will also have to pay for being Fulfilled?

    This is dark, but, your post made me look up the cost of flights to Wuhan so I could go to that Chinese market and eat a Black Mamba. Terrible joke, I know. Unfortunately (or maybe it is fortunate) there are no flights to the Wuhan airport from the US.

    With pricing like that the lakers should donate all proceeds to one of the charities that Kobe supported. A statement like that would be very appropriate.

    or Kobe pushed the pilot to take off in the fog so they could get to game on time. So many circumstances I hate to blame everything on pilot

    fog was bad that day and they probably waited hoping it would clear like normal, when it didn’t they had to decide if they had enough time to drive to game or if they took chance and flew through flog. That’s my thought
