I dont care if people want to honor a shitty human being because he was good at basketball. 

They guy raped a 19 year old, sued his mom and made her publicly apologize, was a terrible selfish team mate and all round douchebag.

He is not the only one who lost his life in that crash. It was sad but it does not forgive all his bullshit.

The only one to be upset over is raping a 19 year old about 18 years ago.

Time heals all wounds I guess.

I supposed if we wait long enough we could all accept Watson even if he is found guilty.

I don't think anyone will argue that Bryant was without serious flaws and those who choose to overlook those in some way do so for their own selfish reasons like human beings have been doing with public figures for a very long time. But your need to air all that out in an unrelated thread about nfl jersey numbers while tossing in the other crash victims as a footnote to validate your point just seems performative. He is dead and gone and anyone who wants to know about him good and bad will have all that information to form their own conclusions now and many more years from now it isn't going anywhere.

Pretty sure that it was revealed to be consensual, even though it sucks for Vanessa. However, people make mistakes and that was in 2003-4. Kobe changed and went on to be the "big brother" of basketball, teaching younger players. He was incredibly smart, speaking 4 languages and became a great ambassador worldwide. He was young and dumb, get over it.

I'm a throwback fan, so seeing a WR in a single digit jersey is not only weird, but slightly cringe worthy. I like to see WRs and TEs wearing 80's. 

It may just be me, but I think these guys want single digits so they stand out more because there are only nine of them.  Yes, diva comes to mind.

This still depends on who you ask--Kobe thought it was--the girl states she asked him to stop several times. The criminal case was dropped, because the girl refused to testify- Kobe issued a statement apologizing, but adamantly claiming he thought she was consenting because of her "body language."

Eventually she filed a civil suit and the two sides settled (some newspaper said for nondisclosure and 2.5 mil), but the actual terms were never officially disclosed.

My wife is an attorney and follows cases like this so we talked about it quite a bit in my house. Jaycee and lots of kids won't remember the details of that or any of it. It is what it is. He can wear whatever # he wants. I wish him the best, whether Kobe did it or not, Jaycee hasn't done anything wrong.

As for DJ's new #, the NFL gave him the option, he can change his # if he wants. I wish him the best too, especially if he signs an extension that's good for the team.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
