Uh... Kobe's pipe game is none of my business and unless someone I'm dating is cheating on me with him, it shall be something that remains outside the bounds of my curiosity.
Now, admiring that he's athletic is something is completely different. If you're a fan of the game and of his accomplishments, of course you're going to have respect for the vehicle he used to get where he is now. It's not easy to train as hard as he does or execute a game plan as intelligently.
So being that mentally invested in a man's pipe game... a little gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but you can't really deny it if it's on your mind that much. I dunno. When I see an athlete I admire, wondering how good he fukks is something that's pretty low on my list of questions I'd wanna ask him.
