Remember that “Seinfeld” episode where Jerry boasts his non-vomit streak of 14 years?
Well I haven’t thrown up in 17 months (bad KFC; it’s a long story).
I almost lost my streak Tuesday night.
Nothing makes me want to hurl more than seeing Kobe Bryant’s underbite after he sinks a big shot.
Full disclosure: Yes, I am a Suns fan and was heartbroken at the end of the three-overtime contest.
But that’s beside the point.
Who does the Mamba think he’s impressing with that orthodontic nightmare?
And where did he learn it from for that matter?
Somewhere in Colorado is my best guess.
Kobe is one of the best basketball players of all time and quite possibly the most clutch.
But that scowl leaps over the fine line of annoying and lands in the realm of self-indulgent narcissism.
“Hey punks, look at my bottom teeth, aren’t they menacing? Oh crap, I forgot to floss this morning.”
You’re great Kobe, but get over yourself or come up with something new.
