I'm proud to say Kobe Bryant made me feel like a jingoistic sheeple today.

Regardless of his politics, and I don't know where his lie, his head is in the right place.  Major props to Kobe.

That jackass Cris Collinsworth seems confounded that Kobe stated he was proud to be an American. Sumbitch's been hanging around Keith Olbermann a slight too much.

Kobe made being a USA representative cool -- when someone with his background says "I got goosebumps" from being an Olympic Representative, then he has maturity.

If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

May Kobe slam one over Olbermann's dumb ass.

Go Kobe!  Good to see someone who isn't "embarrased to be an American"!

Kobe went up a whole bunch of notches in my book.  Collinsworth went down double that number.

He didn't have far to fall to hit rock bottom in my book. He's always been a smarmy- acting douchebag.
