Celtics fan here... saddened to see a man pass this early, and even more so that his daughter had to be a part of it. RIP.

I don't even like the Lakers but this has hit me more than any public figure dying...I am truly sad I feel like I lost a friend. Maybe it's because we're the same age and I also have a daughter....RIP Kobe I 4sure will never forget you

Sounds like they flew VFR (visual flight rules) in to IMC (instrument meteorological conditions). That usually does not end up well. Lots of past similar tragedies ... Stevie Ray Vaughan and Patsy Cline come to mind.

RIP, but, frankly, it’s terrible that so many people are making popularity on this topic, they constantly write about it. I mean media personalities, not forums. I mean, they never talked about them, never thought, but here are a bunch of high-profile statements, etc.

I don’t watch TV so maybe I’m not seeing things how you’re describing.. I’ve mostly seen people from the world of sports comment about it. But regardless, Kobe was somewhat of an icon so it’s natural that he garnered a large amount of respect and notoriety beyond sports.

It’s kind of crazy... I was born and raised in Los Angeles and grew up a huge Laker fan. Up until recent years where I’ve begun to show more support towards the Clippers, but for the past few months I’ve had this Kobe Bryant plaque on my dresser. It’s a sad ending. I think this is way more shocking than when Michael Jaskson died.
