Kobe Bryant And The Lakers Issue Anti-Gay/Bullying PSA (VIDEO)

Oh what a difference a week makes!

After being caught on camera mouthing a gay slur at a referee after what he perceived as a bad call, Kobe Bryant and his fellow Laker teammates are speaking out in a new anti-gay/bullying PSA to warn fans about the negative effects of ostracizing someone simply because they're different.

This PSA reads INAUTHENTIC to me...sorry.

Kobe Bryant Fined $100K By The NBA Homophobic Slur!

WELP! Can't blame anyone but himself...

League Commissioner David Stern had this to say as he levied the fine:

"Kobe Bryant's comment during last night's game was offensive and inexcusable. While I'm fully aware that basketball is an emotional game, such a distasteful term should never be tolerated. Accordingly, I have fined Kobe $100,000. Kobe and everyone associated with the NBA know that insensitive or derogatory comments are not acceptable and have no place in our game or society."

Let's be honest, $100K is a drop in the bucket for Kobe. But it's good to know that the NBA is against this sort for behavior.

Kobe Bryant Issues A Statement For Dropping The "F"-Bomb!

“What I said last night should not be taken literally. My actions were out of frustration during the heat of the game, period. The words expressed do NOT reflect my feelings towards the gay and lesbian communities and were NOT meant to offend anyone.”

I've made this comment before, but it seems as if I will have to repeat myself......Black people DO NOT like to be referred to as the N-word, and Gays DO NOT like to be referred to as the F-word. POINT.BLANK.PERIOD.!!!

When people start to realize this, we will inch a little closer to world peace....YES!

Both terms represent a negative and vile description of both groups, so using the word in ANY context will bring about an uproar.

Kobe, YOU, being a role model, should know and do better!!!

PS - And Kobe...another thing. That was a half azz apology...

Did Kobe Bryant Hurl A Homophobic Slur At A Referee Last Night (VIDEO)???

Uh Ohhhhhhhh! According to this video, it seems as if!

Last night, the Los Angeles Lakers played a game against the San Antonio Spurs at the Staples Center when NBA superstar Kobe Bryant received a technical foul from NBA referee Bennie Adams and appears to mouth the words, "F**king f**got."

WHOA! No Bueno....ESPECIALLY when the cameras are following your every move!

You can even hear one of the commentators saying, "You might wanna take the cameras off of him right now, for the children watching." Uh, ya think?

A rep for the team says, "The Lakers can not confirm that is what Kobe said or not."

Yea, ok! That's EXACTLY what he said....PUUUULEASE!

This story is about to get REAL! More to come...
