Kobe Bryant Makes Video about Tolerance

Posted by andPOP Staff on April 20th, 2011

Kobe Bryant along with other players of the L.A. Lakers have made a video encouraging tolerance of other people in a new public service announcement. This video was made after Kobe was caught making an anti-gay slur.

In the video, Kobe says, “There are all kinds of different people in the world. That’s what makes the world special.”

Kobe and his teammates continue, “So whether someone is different than you in race, ethnicity, political beliefs, religion … or sexual orientation … Words could be hurtful.”

Bryant continues, “Replace them with understanding, compassion and acceptance. Let’s make this a better world for all of us.”

You can tell the “sincerity” in all of their voices. Anyways you can check out the video over at TMZ.

Kobe Bryant Hosting Exclusive NBA All-Star Party

Posted by RM Franks on February 18th, 2011

TMZ is reporting that in celebration of both NBA All-Star weekend and Kobe being enshrined at Grauman’s Chinese Theater (whatever the hell that means), Bryant will throw a muchos-exclusive party at Boulevard 3 Nightclub in Los Angeles Saturday night.

I cannot speak from experience, but I couldn’t imagine the rest of the NBA party-goers are all too thrilled that it’s Kobe Bryant hosting the party. Will the guest list restricted to Derek Fisher and Kobe’s daughters?

They say in the 4th quarter this man has ice-water for blood, and apparently the same goes for when he’s planning a party list. Event Producer Jeru Tillman relayed that there will be a “vigorous” screening process for anyone looking to score a VIP table in the club that night.

That said however, Kobe is perhaps known above anyone to really come through if he gets a good screen. Party on.

Kobe Bryant Wants to be Like Mike…Jackson!!!

Posted by RM Franks on November 24th, 2010

Yahoo Sports’ Adrian Wojnarowski penned a great article yesterday about how Kobe Bryant maintains dedication to his craft. The piece draws on the strange friendship between Kobe and Michael Jackson, and how it was Jackson, not Michael Jordan, that taught Kobe to be great.

I won’t bore you with the details, (even though they aren’t at all boring) because Wojnarowski illustrates the point beautifully, and the article is a must-read for anyone interested in how great minds work and how great human achievement is reached. In essence, it was the King of Pop who taught Kobe the pursuit of perfection and how to keep on course.

Jackson, like Bryant, was relentlessly obsessed with being the best. In an age when LeBron James is busy promoting books, movies, rap songs and TV specials where he announces where he will be playing, Kobe on the other hand is in the gym. Practicing. This is the stuff that makes Kobe what he is, and this is the stuff he learned from MJ. The other MJ.

Cabbie Richards: The Man Without Fear In The Press Room

Posted by Jeremy Singer on January 6th, 2010

Exhibit A: a hefty roly-polly fellow in baggy jeans and a t-shirt, a fitted cap flipped backwards, a microphone in hand and a childish 1000 watt smile.

This is the uniform for one of Canada’s leading sports personalities. Hard to believe?

Meet Cabral “Cabbie” Richards, The Score Network’s animated icon, who has sent a loud message out to the media industry: traditional reporting isn’t always successful, and that his new-school style of interviewing can trump those old-school classroom methods.

In his interviews with star athletes on The Score’s Cabbie on the Street, it’s always a challenge to pint-point exactly the recipe for his success. But narrowing it down, there’s one key ingredient that differentiates the 31-year-old from Cambridge, Ontario, from the rest.

Exhibit B: his swagger.
