KAT honors his mother...
Just wanted to ask for y'all takes on this. I know its a sensitive topic and all but i was somewhat surprised by the decision itself, and the "going public" with it.
...i mean...you want to honor her, would that be the way you'd go about it?

Re: KAT honors his mother...
I ain't gonna judge.
I'm certain it's not the only way he's honoring her, either.

Re: KAT honors his mother...
I’m for it. Why should I judge how he wants to honor/celebrate his mother and her memory?
Good for you KAT!

Anyone concerned about this in the slightest has serious issues.

Re: KAT honors his mother...
Why does it matter how he honors his mom? This obviously isn't the only way he has done it

Re: KAT honors his mother...
I'm about to guess it's not random.
I bet there was some personal story behind.
Maybe back in time they went together to watch new cars to buy her one or somewhat and she said 'this one has very comfortable headrests'.
I know that's not first thing we'd typically rememeber about our moms but that stuff might have some context very meaningful for KAT and his family.

Re: KAT honors his mother...
Obviously, KAT can honor his mom however he wants, and this may be a nice addition to other things.
However, this will sound totally self-serving, but if my kids asked how to honor me if I die, I would say that the best way to honor me is by working to be the best, happiest, most successful versions of themselves. They can skip embroidering my name on a fancy car.

Feel like if my kids were stitching my name into the headrests of a Maybach, they just might be living their most successful lives.
9. Similarly, IF THOU HAST SPENT the entire offseason predicting that thy team will stink, thou shalt not gloat, nor even be happy, shouldst thou turn out to be correct. Realistic analysis is fine, but be a fan first, a smug smarty-pants second.

...whatever thats supposed to mean. The story was obviously placed, now we arent supposed to talk about it? SMH
For the record, and let this be known to my siblings, i dont want my signature embroidered on any luxury item. And secondly i dont want to have photographers brought in to talk about this being a tribute to me, because my signature is not what represents me. To be honest, i find the whole thing a bit obscene and all this private stuff is in my opinion best kept private. I never got the purpose of "public griefing".

It’s an ego thing.
I have nothing personal against KAT, and I’ve never been a professional psychologist, or even close, but I have slept at a holiday inn express.
KAT comes off as a me me me egotistical jerk kinda guy. But I could be wrong.

Re: KAT honors his mother...
I’m not sure why this is a thing people would feel a need to put judgment on. How KAT honors his mother is up to him.

Re: KAT honors his mother...
I am kinda amazed the thread is this long. He didn’t ask for opinions nor does he need permission. How people mourn and how they pay their respects to their dead family and friends is their business, and only their business.

Even if they bring it to TMZ?
I agree KAT can do what he wants. Nobody said he shouldn’t. Others have said what they would like, if it was them.

Posting a video to a public Instagram is bringing a story to TMZ?...
