Someone’s not happy with the Black Mamba! NFL legend Jim Brown stopped by the Arsenio Hall show last night and one of the things that they talked about was athletes. Arsenio asked Jim’s opinion of Kobe & he didn’t have too many good things to say — but at least he did say that Kobe’s an unbelievable athlete.
Check it out…
Via TMZ:
Jim Brown — one of the most outspoken leaders in the civil rights movement — says Kobe Bryant not only betrayed Shaq, but African-American men in general … and it all stems from the rape investigation in Colorado.
Brown appeared on the Arsenio Hall show and went right after Kobe — saying, “He threw Shaq under the bus” … referring to when Kobe told investigators Shaq would pay up to $1 million to women to keep them quiet about “situations like this” back in 2003.
Shaq patched things up with Kobe publicly, but Brown is clearly still upset by the situation — essentially telling Arsenio that it’s hard enough for a black man in America, without having to worry about being dimed out by another black man.
“[Kobe] is somewhat confused about culture, ’cause he was brought up in another country … so it doesn’t quite fit what’s going on here in America.”
