Enough Of Kobe's Beefs!

OK, I’ve had enough of Kobe’s “beefs!”

No, I’m NOT referring to Japanese Kobe Beef… as in the finest steak in the world.

However, I am lamenting Los Angeles Laker Kobe Bryant’s non-stop beefs; i.e. the murmuring, complaining, whining, sulking and moaning we witness every time this loquacious Laker steps on the hardwood.

Right now, Boston Celtic fans are probably scrambling to canonize me as the new patron saint of Beantown for my audacious, long-overdue proclamation, while loyal Left Coast Laker fans are boiling mad with plans to excoriate me somewhere on ritzy Rodeo Drive for all of SoCal to see.

Hey, I’m the first to admit that Kobe Bryant is arguably the best basketball player on the planet. Sorry, Lebron-lovers. But, hear me loud and clear Laker faithful, Kobe’s pissy attitude, once again, during the recent NBA Playoff series against the Suns was totally inexcusable.

Coach Phil Jackson needs to put a baby’s binkie in Kobe’s mouth instead of tippy-toeing around the Lakers’ $30 Million a year Prima-Donna! What a disgrace that Jackson goes along with the glaring, glowering and grimacing every time 24 misses a shot  - or sanctions the sulking sewage that flows offensively out of Kobe’s mouth just like BP’s blundering oil spill in the Gulf.

Why don’t we hear Marv Albert or Kenny The Jet Smith or Jeff Van Gundy step up with some stones and speak out against the belly-aching Bryant? Sadly, we see plenty of other sniffling television sportscasters like Doug Collins and Stuart Scott molly-coddle Kobe’s contentious conduct and condone his condescending comments aimed directly at his very own Laker teammates. Even the diminutive NBA Czar David Stern, always available to pontificate in front of any camera anywhere, remains mute on Kobe’s chronic crying.

Basketball fans, let’s stop the babbling, bickering Bryant before the Boston series begins.

Enough of Kobe’s “beefs,” so we can all enjoy a great NBA Finals!

MIKE – thee American made voice on sports!
