Looks like this is the real deal. I was never much of a Kobe guy but has to be one of the greatest to pass as such a young age. Sad stuff

They kind of said it in passing on the ABC News special report, but they said his 4 daughters were with him.

It's so damn sad.

He had four kids, and there are five fatalities in the helicopter crash.

ABC has retracted the fact that his kids were on board and also read that Rick Fox daughter confirmed he was not aboard. Who knows...

I haven't given a rats ass about basketball since the Sonics left, but this is some messed up stuff. Kobe is one of the greatest to ever play. Only 41 and on top of the world. So sorry for his family... Just devastating. RIP Buddy....

TMZ now reporting his 13 year old daughter was aboard...

I hope it's not all of them -- as the initial report said five died, and he has four daughters.

They also said the wife wasn't on board.

If she lost all four kids and husband, I don't know how you'd come back from that.

RIP Kobe.

and a good example of why people should show some patience and not retweet/echo these reports until they get the real info.
