I am not upset about this at all, he was a sports figure and he past away.
Maybe this board can help me out, I have not seen anything posted about Antonio Moore dying on January 24th. Oh, that is Spc. Antonio Moore. I am more saddened by his death and all the other heirs out there fighting for sports figures to do what they do.
Just saying.......

1 is a guy who I never heard of until you just said it. The other is a guy who plays the sport I love and has been a figure in the sports world for over half my life, and I've spent countless hours watching/discussing. It's human nature, there's just an emotional investment there for 1 that you don't get for the other.
But like I said, it really does come down to semantics. I wouldn't say I'm more sad about Kobe, but it absolutely does/will hit me harder for all the reasons above. Maybe that's contradictory and does mean I'm more sad, but if so, I'll fall back to saying that's just human nature, seems pretty rational IMO.

Why don't you link his story and spread the word? Don't be surprised that no one is posting about a death that they don't know about.

You are right. I haven't seen a topic or even a post by you about Antonio Moore.

I get your point and agree. There way many more people out there than just sports figures..
