The helicopter crash is a shame no matter who was on it. I've already had enough of the "Kobe was a great human being" in the media. Such bullshit. Aside from his sexual assault years ago and being a snitch and a bitch, he was a self-entitled, privileged asshole before he even reached the NBA. Anybody who paid the slightest bit of attention could surmise that. People like him and that generation up 'til now are why I don't follow the NBA anymore.
Even the damn Governor of Pennsylvania is gushing about how the state was fortunate to have Kobe as one of it's own. Fuck off.
