(let me try this again since my first post magically disappeard.)  Gee, if you are Kobe Bryant and you have decided that you are going to stray, wouldn't you have been better off with a quality provider than a 19yo civilian? ..... just a thought.......

I guess this is the price you pay for celebrity status.  Everybody wants either a piece of you or your money or both.  Personally, I think that he could have been in a similar position even with a provider.  It's his image at stake and the general public and sponsors don't look favorably at him straying away from his clean cut image.  What if the provider decided to blackmail him or extort money from him?  He'd be screwed too!  

On a side note, was he getting bbfs or something spill out of the hat??  I'm curious to find out the juicy details.

and betraying his beautiful wife. The rest I hope will be revealed in court. It is serious enough that he could face life in prison and frankly it should be that serious. Sexual felony assault, as unproven as it is right now, is no joking matter and must not be dismissed because of any previous history on either of them.

The truth is that she paid him $$$$$ from the hotel register knowing all along she could & would fuck him over.  She is a worthless golddigging cunt.

And yes let the court system decide.  And I am sure she just went to his room to get his autograph.  Sounds like a resort that I would not want to visit.  Apparently the resort approves of its employees knocking on celebrity guest doors and asking for their autographs.  Do you really think that she just knocked on the door and he grabbed her, threw her on the bed and raped her.

So, far Kobe is guilty of cheating on his wife,,ive met this guy and im sad to think he would assualt a woman..I guess if we put our selves in Kobe's shoes we would be used to hot young ladies throwing themselves at us,,,
I just hope this is a case of a guy thinking with his little head and just going for the gusto...and not forcing himself on this kid,.,,,just my little humble opinion....
if he raped her...let him go to jail if not set the guy free.

Sham.

Only two people in the whole world know what really happened and since they both are telling different stories at least one of them is in denial.

As for as being better off with a provider than a 19 yr old civilian, yes that may be true and this would also apply to one of our former Presidents.

Whatever the outcome, this is not going to be pretty for Kobe. If his wife didn't know of his wander lust, she and whole world now have it confirmed. The lawyers will get fat fees, the plaintiff will be smeared at first but end up with book deals worth millions. Kobe will loose endorsement and public speaking deals that could have been worth many millions.

sounds more like an "aol chat rm" than the TER Board.

.. some of us envy the studs that get all the women.. ya, right!

This is what happens when women come on to you if you are a celebrity, and it only takes one to ruin your life.  So who's fault is it by getting into this situation?  Kobe made the choice; he's married, he's known by everyone, and he took a chance consential or not that "if I do this will it hurt my family, my image, my career?"

Now he has to face the consequence of his actions; his friends and family are embarrassed and will be hounded by reporters seeking new tidbits to splash on the nightly news, and we'll have to listen to all the allegations as to whose fault was it.. his.. hers.. who knows!

.. people will never learn from others past mistakes!

the rich are often the "mark" ... not saying it's necessarily the case here. i guess we'll know for sure when the TV movie of the week comes out, if not sooner in a court of law

but if it was a 19yr old bellboy that went up to Demi Moore's room to get an autograph and was molested would anyone believe him? of course not, he's a sex-crazed rapist ("that's what men are and all that they are" -- Andrea Dworkin)

I thought he was making a mistake in getting married at such a young age to begin with.  His wife is a beautiful woman, but he is a pro athlete in LA., obviously wealthy, I assume good looking ($ makes you better looking).  There is going to be plenty of temptation, why not give into it and live it up for a while?  I'm not saying unsafely (Magic), but live it up!  

If I was in his situation, I'd be such a ho.......

It breaks my balls to hear that there really are some guys out there who have,

The looks,
The talent,
The money,
The DAMES...

And yet they get married only to continue on with the DAMES and get into so much trouble that they loose the wife and about 50% of his stuff. Plus they loose the very things that mean the most to men.

YOUNGER WOMEN
OLDER WHISKEY
FASTER HORSES
MORE MONEY

I'd like a shot at it cause, just like your reply, I'd stay single and be a very active womanizer.
