When asked about his weight loss, Bryant has stated that he intentionally lost 15-20 pounds over the summer to be "sleeker" on the court. Personally, I think the stress of the summer took its toll, resulting in an undesired loss of weight. Wasn't it just last summer when he put on all that extra muscle to take on the wear-and-tear of an entire 82-game season + playoffs. Someone's making excuses!
He'll have plenty of free time to catch up on all the biblical verses in full detail soon enough. Maybe he can even use his bible to stow away his rock hammer a la Andy DuPhrane.
According to the Newsweek article, Kobe had consulted a divorce attorney a few months ago and that consultation preceeded Vanessa's alleged trip to the hospital and being put on life support. Now he has her tatooed on his arm. What next?
kobe is one whipped puppy now first he buys her millions+ rings now he is tat'ing her name on his arm how much ass-kissing must one man have to do for cheating? lol now he is all talking bout god in interviews..how his only purpose is to do god's work.. pleaseeee he aint even in prison yet and he's already seen the light.. what a tool
Instead of Psalm 27 he should have put Ezekiel 25:17. If nothing else it is one of the greatest movie lines of all time. "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you." Samuel L. Jackson from pulp fiction.
I think he was dumb to get married so early and not get a pre-nup and now he's screwed. I'm surprised Vanessa hasn't left him yet. Maybe she's waiting for some more money, or maybe she'll be for his image a la Jordan's wife.
It always annoyed me that Tarantino essentially made up Bible verses -- well, it is either that or he has one seriously messed up translation. The real Ezekiel 25:15-17: But you're right; it would have made a better tattoo.
I don't claim to be a theologist but I think there are a fairly large number of interpretations of the bible out there. The one I crew up with is the King James version and I checked Ezekiel 25:15-17 and those were not the words it used. Of course that is one of the great advantages to being a script writer. Having said that, it is possible that he took that verse from an interpretation that neither of us is familier with. In any event listening to Jackson in that scene always made the hair stand up on the back of my neck.
Word I heard was that he was WHooped INTO the Marriage by her parents her being underage at the time an all . .. but that is just the word on the street Rocket River I feel bad for him . . . cause that is a wack tattoo wouldn't have been easier to just get two lesbian teenages???
Funniest post ever. I don't get it, Dave2000... will you respect me if I put "Adultery Is Great! Yay!" on my shoulder? And, by the way, all... I hope that's Vanessa's head hair... by the halo... I guess... or maybe the halo is symbolic of another thing? whatever...
Man I can't stop looking at how skinny his arm is. that's extreme weight loss losing 15lbs and his arms don't evne looked defined anymore, they look flabby. Maybe he is taking the preseason off so he can hit the weight training.
Wow, talk about some major sucking up. First he buys her a $4mil ring and now this. usually if you are doing this you feel guilty as heck.
