Re: Bryant winning Teen Choice Award

I know the voting and all that took place before the rape incident happened, but is this really the kind of role model teens should have?

I'm also kind of disgusted that in every single promo i've seen for the Awards show, it mentions him. "See Kobe Bryant accept the award for Male Athlete of the Year" blah blah.

Nothing like exploiting already nasty contraversy to drum of ratings for a TEEN awards cermony.
I agree that it wasn't cool of the Teen Choice Awards to promote him winning so more people would watch. But we have to remember that he is innocent until proven guilty. It's sad that everyone is ready to lock him up.
