OT: Kobe Bryant
Posted: Sun Jan 26, 2020 7:13 pmSorry for the off topic subject, but I thought our mods would agree to make an exception.
Just about everyone on the planet has heard of the tragic helicopter accident that claimed the life of Kobe Bryant, one of his daughters, and seven others. I may be dating myself somewhat, but one of the first things that came to my mind was how similar Bryant's passing was to another HOF player decades ago: Roberto Clemente, who was killed in an airplane crash on his way to his native land to assist in recovery from a natural disaster. Bryant and Clemente were approximately the same age.
Definitely a sad day in the sporting world. RIP Kobe Bryant.
