Holy crap. I don't care for basketball at all and this news has shocked me. I know Bryant was a solid player and teammate as well as a family man. 

Goodness gracious. Prayers for his family and friends.

Better than solid, I'd say Hall of fame level. It's terrible to hear.

Kobe, his 13 year old daughter, a teammate of his daughter and their parent, as well as the pilot all died in the crash. 

They were on their way to a travel basketball game.

RIP

Kobe wasn't just a solid player, he was one of the greatest to ever play the game. He's right up there with Jordan as one of the all time greats. The man is a legend.

---

Wow. This is a shock. I don't follow the NBA, but Bryant always came across to me as a grateful and gracious man. It's especially sad with his daughter and another child gone too. I hope the best for his family.

Yeah, Kobe wasnt just solid, he is one of the all time greats.  Give me Kobe over Lebron any day of the week.

---

I mean losing Kobe is devastating, but losing 2 teenagers is gut wrenching.

---

Anyone else catch the MSNBC reporter dropping the N-word on live TV while covering the event? Yikes!

Sheriff's Department just said that there were 9 people on the helicopter. The news just keeps getting worse

For someone who doesn't follow basketball AT ALL- as I said in my reply- 'solid' is the best word I could come up with. Also, there was a lunatic criminal with multiple warrants being chased by a crap ton of cops across my neighbors yard just as I was replying so I was somewhat distracted. 

It's been a weird day.

---

This is a tragedy. I really feel for his family and especially the family of the other victims.

Peyton must store oxygen in that forehead of his. No way I'd still be alive after all that choking.

I didn't mean to come off a certain way, if it sounded like I did.
