Kobe Bryant has another scandal. Bryant had a technical foul called on him. Kobe, not being a mild mannered chap at all, responded. According to Eurweb.com:
It took place during the 3rd quarter of their game with the San Antonio Spurs after Kobe received a technical foul. The NBA star — clearly upset — screams for ref Bennie Adams and appears to mouth the words, “F**king f**got.”
I am no fan of Kobe Bryant. But $100,000 fine? Was he fined for the first F word or the second F word? Team representatives said they could not confirm that is what he said.
Now I am all for not using homophobic slurs. It is a matter of sensitivity and good manners to refrain from doing so. But is the punishment really worth $100,000?
