    Man if true... how does TMZ keep beating these networks to the stories?

    The age of network news and print media is dead

    TMZ pays people for stories. If you have a story, they will pay you a lot.

    I can’t stop shaking. Feel like it was a family member. Many of you CL folks go back over 14 years with me. Please help...I just need to feel something different right now.

    I'm in utter disbelief. I'm shaking right now. In tears. I feel like if close family had just died man and I didn't even know the man personally. Followed him through his whole career and I always considered that the biggest luck and joy as a sports fan. Was always my favorite player and will always be. 20 years of my 30 years life following his career.

    I'm destroyed inside right now. Dammit.

    Kob was a family member as far as I'm concerned. He was in the living room, at the family parties, at the dinner table. He was beloved man, it's losing a loved one. I can't believe it.

    It’s bad enough that we lost Kobe. Like that alone, I feel like I lost a long time friend or even a family member, been watching this dude since I was 12, but his daughter Gianna too? This is too much, I feel we just watched them sitting courtside at a Lakers game, I genuinely feel like I’m gonna throw up.

    Yes, I have just seen two teams take 24 second violations in honor of Kobe. The whole arena stood up...
