    Kobe loses another deal.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Kobe Bryant lost his sponsorship deal with McDonald's, costing the NBA star another endorsement while his sexual assault case proceeds in Colorado.

    The fast-food company said Monday its three-year agreement with the Los Angeles Lakers guard expired Dec. 31 and was not renewed.

    "It would be inappropriate to comment or speculate at this time about any future sponsorship relationship," spokesman Bill Whitman said.

    Thats weird. I never saw any McDonald's ads/endorsments with Kobe.

    But who cares, Kobe is still rich. Although, it does suck that he has lost his good image and is suddenly replaced by others.

    Yeh, the kid said that if they won they'd get McDonalds, lol. The Charge is really tearing him apart. Does he still have the contract with Sprite?

    I guess "Innocent until proven guilty," does not apply to Corporate America.
