Default Kobe Game Used and Goldin Auctions

Looks like Kobe is trying to keep his mom and Goldin Auctions from aucitoning off some of his stuff...

http://news.yahoo.com/kobe-bryant-ba...140308993.html

Not knowing all the details, I would side with Kobe out of the gate...it's probably an unpopular view but it's his stuff and his family shouldn't have carte blanche to just sell the stuff to buy a new house...

I know this might be better placed in the Game Used section but thought the main board might generate more discussion...if Leon wants to move it over there, that's cool with me! Looking forward to your thoughts...

It's an interesting topic that can apply to any type of memorabilia. And many to most of us have stored stuff at our parents at some time or other. When I was away at college, all my baseball cards and memorabilia were at my parents' house.

You do hear of real life situations where kids 'temporarily' drop off stuff, perhaps while moving, at the parents house and the parents really don't have room to store it-- and the kids won't pick it up. The normal if informal rule is the parents can give due warning for the kids to pick it up, then if it's not picked up the parents can do what they want with it. At least that's what Dear Abby says.

Default Kobe

Kobe could have a billion dollars, and still won't sign an autograph unless he's paid $800 per. The real issue here is why Kobe is that way. Fans pay his salary, and yet he dogs everyone for a stupid autograph.

That's about $800 more than I would pay for one.

Two celebrities my dad can't stand are Tom Cruise and Kobe Bryant. Tom Cruise comes first.

Tom Cruise is an alien.
It's the only feasible explanation.

He probably has changed over time, but he signed a card for me the only time I ever asked him. Back in 2001 or so.
