Basketbawful reader Jon sent in a link to this old Adidas commercial where Kobe goes one-on-one with a hapless child. Mamba goes after the kid with the kind of pitiless rage I would expect from King Leonidas, slapping his shots halfway to Abu Dhabi and dunking over him. Note that the title to this post is only a joke. Kobe doesn't hate kids. He hates everybody He's a competitor.


Note: I've received a lot of good submissions over the last couple weeks that I haven't had the opportunity to post. I'll probably do a compilation of them soon. And then I'll finish the Worsties, and then I'll cure cancer, and then...man, I need a vacation.

Seriously Matt. I mean, I expect at least seven posts daily, each typo-free, hilarious, and perfect. You're fuckin' slipping.

I remember when this commercial first came out. My first thought was...

What's up with the porn star/child molester 'stache he's sporting?

I bet no one would ever write that Ron Artest fell on his firm and supple ass.

Sigh. I usually think this blog is funny, but... (rolls eyes)

cw -- Don't forget the hair that makes the top of his head look like the Q-Tip Paris Hilton uses to cake on her eye makeup.

ticktock6 -- You do realize that the very next time I see Ron Artest fall down taking a charge or something I'm going to write that, right?
