Yeah, he just told the cops something about Shaq for the hell of it? Why mention a name? Thats what I'm saying kid. If he was simply trying to paint an example for the Po's then he didn't have to name names. But when you start naming names, you're trying to get the spotlight off you. As for the dude at my work, what I did for him was great. Everyone knows he's gay and now nobody else will bother him with questions trying to fish gay/straight answers out of him. Now he can work in peace without having to field questions cuz everyone knows (and are perfectly OK with it). On top of that, he gained a buddy with whom he can share his feelings with. The original gay cat and him are good friends now. He still has no clue anyone seen his flicks. He still has no clue that people know he's gay (outside of the other gay cat). So how is what I did anything harmful to him? So yeah, dude has not been affected in any negative manner.
But thats not even what we're talking about. Its Kobe and his naming names to the cops. "Famous" escapades... hardly. Like I said, YOU knew. But not everyone knew. So if the cops did not know what Shaq had done prior to Kobe telling them, then Kobe snitched.
Why mention the name? Like I said, it's called an EXAMPLE...Sure, he shouldn't have done it, but he was under heat, he slipped up. If you think he was tryna get Shaq in trouble, then you're dumb, that's all. If you read the interrogation, which you obviously didn't, you would see there was no "SPOTLIGHT" to rid, like you're claiming...Two detectives just approached Kobe to ask him about the situation.. it musta been like a 1 hour talk, and the situation was very clear (Kobe fucked the bitch), so there was no removal of spotlight attempted, like you claim.
Also...you're not God, SGV. To say you didn't affect the dude in your work is pathetic. Come on, now, are you Cartman? Seriously, SERIOUSLY. The guy was in the closet for a reason. He obviously still wants to be there if he's not saying shit, but I guess you "helped" him...You did your duty, huh, God? If he ever found out, he'd be very, VERY upset...You invaded his discret, personal space and burned a big whole in his privacy for his whole work enviroment to crawl in.
Stop claiming what Shaq did wasn't famous...Just because your non-basketball watching ass was ignorant to the situation, doesn't mean everyone is blind. Shit was everywhere. You had Superhead going on interviews talking about sleeping with Shaq and being spoiled...You had girls going to tabloids spilling out about it... You had it published in many books, magazines, internet articles...You had jokes about it on Jay Leno...So again, because your ass didn't know something that was considered common knowledge amongst the basketball world, doesn't mean it's the same for everyone...Should Kobe have used the example? No. Does it define his character? Only if you're a judgemental piece of shit...PeACe
