2020 Has Been the Longest Year Ever, and it's Only February - Part II

So... 2020.


Kobe died.

My brother-in-law sent a group text on January 26th asking, "Is Kobe dead?" I hopped on Twitter and quickly came across a headline that Kobe Bryant and others were killed in a horrific helicopter accident in Calabasas. I know those hill along that stretch of the freeway. The copter was en route to a basketball tournament in Thousand Oaks... the city where I was born. The worst was eventually confirmed... Kobe, along with his 13-year-old daughter Gigi and 7 others, were dead.


Even as I type those words today it still doesn't feel real. It's really hard to put into words how I feel about this tragedy. Feels almost ridiculous trying to recount the last couple of weeks now. But I'm still sad about this. Devastated really.


Some shots from several years ago when the Lakers were in town taking on the Mavs and we had courtside seats...
