I understand where he is coming from too. I would be more than a little salty if either one of my nephews brought home a "Vanessa", but after they got married would I be mad enough not to deal with them for 2 plus years? Mad enough not to see my great neice/nephew?? I just can't imagine it. Now if Vanessa is disrepecting the family or something like that I could understand, but I see none of that .

Now, re Jellybean and Mrs. Jellybean, it sounded like they were no longer together from the article. It said that JOE moved back to Cali, not the family. Or did I misread??

I'm a Lakers fan, as you well know. I find the timing of the piece rather disturbing, but I digress.

Now I agree with Eclipse. Kobe married Vanessa, they have a daughter. Jellybean needs to be cordial, civil and a part of baby Natalia's life. And I have to say that Vanessa is still a woman of color.

Soror, Jellybean is of a different era than what you see today. When he was playing, interracial marriage only had been barely decriminalized and it wasn't, as it were, a trend.

Maybe I misread...

Soror Steeltrap, it (IR) still existed. It may not have been the trend, but it existed....just ask my cousin.

That article was a truly unimpressive piece of sports writing.

Bring out the violins indeed....

Poor poor St Kobe and his angel bride.

I am so sure there is more going on to this situation. This seems more like an attempt at manipulating the media for SOME reason than a true confession or heart to heart. I don't know what's up with him and his Dad but I respect his father's decision not to run to the press WAY more than I believe one word that came out of Kobe's mouth in this piece.

I ain't buyin it.

Oh, yeah, it existed. When I talk about "decriminalization," I'm speaking of the Supreme Court decision.

You know what, you have a good point! I know when Halle and David Justice were going through their "stuff" I got sick of Halle running her mouth about how he did her wrong. After a while sI stopped believing her...

Decision on Bryant Case Expected Friday
31 minutes ago

By COLLEEN SLEVIN, Associated Press Writer

EAGLE, Colo. - After two weeks of investigation, the district attorney will announce Friday whether Kobe Bryant will be charged with sexually assaulting a 19-year-old woman.

Bryant, a three-time NBA champion with the Los Angeles Lakers (news), surrendered to authorities July 4 on allegations he attacked the woman at the exclusive mountain resort Lodge & Spa at Cordillera in nearby Edwards on June 30.

The five-time All-Star was in Colorado for knee surgery at a Vail clinic. In his only public comments on the case, Bryant told the Los Angeles Times he "would never do something like that."

Bryant attended the ESPY Awards in Los Angeles on Wednesday, but he avoided the media in his first public appearance since his arrest. He sat in the audience smiling and laughing with his wife.

If charges are filed, Bryant would have to return to Colorado on Aug. 6.

The case has drawn national attention to this mountain town about 100 miles west of Denver.

Details of the case have been sealed under a court order.

Authorities have said both Bryant and his accuser went to hospitals after the alleged attack for tests.

Sheriff's deputies took Bryant to Valley View Hospital in Glenwood Springs, about 40 miles west of the resort, early July 2. Sheriff's detective Doug Winters declined to say why but said Bryant was allowed to leave on his own because he had not been charged.

Authorities have said they are treating Bryant like any other suspect, though sheriff's investigators didn't reveal his arrest until July 6 — two days after he was released on $25,000 bail.

Bryant's attorney in Denver, Pamela Mackey, has accused the sheriff's office of rushing the case against Eagle County District Attorney Mark Hurlbert's wishes.

Mackey was not in her office Thursday and a secretary said she would not be available until Monday.

They must have some DNA on my boy cuz he just admitted through his attorney that he is not guilty of sexual assault but he is guilty of the crime of adultry.
