Skip Bayless going nuts over Kobe's COD Black Ops appearance

[barrettcg]

My older son is way better then me at black ops. I'm 28 and my 11yr old and my 8yr old sons all play the game together all the time during days we don't have practice and once their homework is done. They both do really well in school and my 11yr old is amazing at all sports. Parents are lazy now a days and Kalidogg send me your gamer tag.

Although I dont play them, video games like these increase dexterity and hand eye coordination - important for doctors and dentists alike. these guys can say all they want but the onus is on parents to make sure that KIDS know the difference between reality and a video game....

when there is nothing else to talk about, it is always easy for commentators to find something negative to harp on bryant about.

[MaDsKiLLzz24]

i hate Skip Bayless!!..dude is the biggest laker hater ever!!

[Edrees]

Am I missing something here? I thought we're supposed to support the troops. When real people use guns to kill the bad guys its supposed to be celebrated but when its fake and for fun suddenly its wrong. These people have twisted logic.

This is on top of the fact that people playing video games has absolutely no influence on whether they want to use a gun in real life, that's stupid.

Personally I think kobe's add where he dressed in white was much more offensive, it teaches kids that its OK to dress like a fool, much more offensive IMO

it was the main topic in outside the lines (espn show) this morning...

"Kobe Bryant's responsibility as both public figure and popular face of the NBA?"

I didn't think the commercial was bad, just showing that people playing the game online are diverse. OTL was comparing it to AI's rap album the early 2000s.

[supaflash]

I can't believe this is generating as much buzz as it is, and it's not like he's the only celeb in the commercial. I watched part of the outside the lines today and some people's opinions are retarted, comparing it to Iverson's ghetto rap album and Arenas. I love how these ESPN analysts can sit there and commentate how he's a killer, no mercy, yadda yadda to quip about him but can then go off about this... stupid...

[semi-sentient]

Dude.

We should totally challenge those n00bs at ESPN to a 2v2 match on Deck16][ to give them something to cry about.

[kobesmyhomie]

Yea this is going to kill Kobe's image.

Like rape alligations didn't.
Like running Shaq out of town didn't.
Like running Phil Jackson out didn't.

Move along people...nothing to see here

[supaflash]

haha Semi, that would be some sweet Deck16 pwnage.

Could talk some mad **** too in the process

How's that for some True shooting % huh!?
Our schedule is only weak cause you are on it!
Does Hollinger have a formula to calculate how badly you just got owned?

[Kobay]

How about they get a respectable job so that their kids can learn how to develop a sense of independence and not piggyback on other people's fame, talent, and life.

[RamonSessions7]

black ops isnt even that great

[24K GOLD]

I want to noobtube Skip.

[dockingsched]

the co-host with skip bayless on 1st and 10 that day just said that it was a slow news day so in the production meeting they decided they'd just talk about the kobe commercial to even though it was over a week old.. good job espn.

[The Laker Kid]

only in America...

[ATL DirtyBird]

I thought everyone knew and accepted how big of a moron Skip is. That whole 1st and 10 crew is full of idiots. Shocking that they get paid to spit out hot garbage every morning

[joe.linnen]

look at the comments on the video too, nobody agrees with them, hilarious.

LeBron should've been in this commercial and shot a rocket launcher at Cleveland from Family Guy, the subtle joke would've been epic.

LOL that would be great

[joe.linnen]

I like it and its the first war game that I would want to play. I would take Skip to hell myself. I hope he dies and I'm in the military and had my time in Afghanistan and I see no problem with this at all. Skip who dear you bring up the troops, kill yourself first and then watch my videos on suicide prevention and then come holla at the damn troops. This stupid A$$, punk A$$ dude don't know S%!T about nothing and I hope he drives into his house and kills his family

[blix]

jeez dude, overreact much?

[LAkersWorld1]

To old ass Skip Bayless:

Q) What did Barkley say a long time ago in that Nike ad?
A) "I am not a role model"

Get a freaking hobby like collecting stamps or sit on a park bench and throw crumbs of bread to birds. Nerd.
