Omg. I’m stunned. So sad

 

[BugsyCT]

It's true. All over the news now. What a shocking tragedy.

 

[polycom]

Woj confirmed it.

 

[G0UCONN]

Awful. One of top few ever.

Really hope family not on helicopter....

 

[jayteeman]

41 oh my god....so so sad. A true icon for the sport.

 

[gsmooth]

I am reeling from this. I was listening to a live political show on YouTube and they guy stepped away from his usual reporting to mention this. So sad and so tragic

 

[storrsroars]

Damn. Guy was at a point where he could enjoy his family and do good works with his foundation. Very sad for his family's loss and the good he could've done for others.

 

[UCDaveD]

Please tell me his kids weren’t on board.

 

[Kitaman]

Oh my! No words. Just speechless!

His future was coaching, teaching, serving and now . . . . .

 

[gsmooth]

if this is fake news, someone should be shot

well Steve Wojnarski (spelling) confirmed this. Hopefully he is wrong. If he isn't.....

RIP Kobe. You are true legend and will be sorely missed.

It just sounded like the guy on ABC who cut into the Pro Bowl just said his daughters were on the helicopter with him? God I hope not.

 

[superjohn]

Rooted against him his whole career and I'm crying and shaking. This is devastating.

 

[gsmooth]

Kobe was doing great work with his foundation and really starting to enjoy his personal life away from basketball.

 

[MilliniumPrince]

I hope his family wasn't with him. Damn

 

[minidarren]

I cant find anything in writing about the daughters. It came from my wife and a conversation she was having with a friend. Said it was mentioned during the Pro Bowl.

Please don't be true. Absolutely gut wrenching.

Same. They confirmed his wife Vanessa was not on board. Mixed info on his daughters.

 

[gsmooth]

Please don't be true. Absolutely gut wrenching.

Unfortunately it is true. I just saw the report on NBC and the firefighter that was interviewed.

 

[bazz&boujee]

RIP to a legend

 

[superjohn]

Oh Geezus, his family was on the helicopter. This is the saddest s**** I've ever heard.

 

[gsmooth]

Helicopter crashes very rarely have survivors.
