Note to dood running the “bleep” button at the ESPN postgamer. Step into my office. Why? Because you’re f-cking fired. Kobe Bryant, in a pretty funny postgame presser that got aired live (yesss) on ESPN, drops an s-bomb in response to a question about talk radio and how they are so optimistic.
In fairness, he’s right. And it’s not his fault either — last I checked the athletes aren’t supposed to watch themselves at these things; that’s the huge media conglomerate’s job. Although, it is admittedly surprising (and compellingly human I might add) to see such a PR monster as Kobe with a rare slip.
Props to Snyds for the GChat alert.

On the next E:60, all the reporters fight over who gets to tell the compelling story about the censor dude who got fired and now lives in a card board box haunted by the word shit.
How you gonna get fired over something that aired live? If that’s the case, CBS should’ve fired the guy running the “blur” during the Super Bowl halftime show. Oh well, there’s always FSN or Versus.
From the window to the wall.
Kobe should have been slammed with a Technical in last nights game. He continously questions the ref’s calls, even though the replay clearly shows that he fouled a Celtic. What he needs is some cheese to go with his “Whine”!
Thanks for the props. Glad you found the clip.
How about that one dude in the background that started dying laughing like he was a 4th grader that laughs just because he heard a “bad word.”
