Did I put news? Breaking? Anything regarding news? It’s a comment, Karen.

The question, Lloyd, is why you think that Clemson getting 4 top 100 recruits is interesting enough for Volnation to care. It would be newsworthy if UTC did that or an opponent we will be playing. Everyone expects Clemson to do that.

My phone was off pretty much all day...then I turn it on to see the news about Kobe and celebrity/athlete deaths never really affect me.....but man this one hurt. I played basketball for over half my life starting with junior pro....middle school team....aau ball...and then onto high school ball where I blew my knee out twice and had to give up basketball for good. Man...my love for basketball was unmatched and he was one of the players that I wanted be like. Just his skill....determination...and of course his mentality.

Then bunch it together with myself being a father to 3 beautiful children...one of them being a daughter. As a Dad we pride ourselves in being the protector of our children...especially our daughters. I can't imagine what was going through his head on his final moments on earth knowing he was absolutely helpless to protect his daughter. I just hope they had one final embrace and told each other they loved each other. I hope to God they passed quickly without any suffering.


Ladies and gents....like I said I felt this one today to the point I cried like little boy.

Rip Kobe. Rip Gianna.
And to all those that were on the helicopter.
Life is precious.....so precious.

I’ve always thought Kobe was the next greatest after Jordan. My reason that it isn’t Lebron is because if him and Kobe were on the same team, in clutch time, Kobe would be taking the shot and Lebron would know that. He was a fierce competitor and demanded excellence if you played with him. Don’t @ me because It isn’t a debate to me.

Also as a father of a 1 and 2 year old, I can’t imagine what he was thinking as he knew they were not going to make it. I pray they are with God, and I pray for his wife and family. She woke up today and didn’t think anything and now she is without her husband and child. I pray they know God and somehow find peace. I can’t imagine what they are going through and also pray for the other families involved.

Kobe was an icon and may he RIP.
