Oedipus Compaired to Kobe

Kobe Bryant is an amazing hero to people of all ages. However, he has a couple of his own faults that he must learn to try and prevail over. For instance, Kobe talks about how he wondered what it might be like if he had attended college. He regrets not going to college but states th

at he had already made his decision. Skipping college was a choice that he should not have decided upon since it makes him seem as though he was only saving his money for when he signed to the NBA. Another example of Kobe using bad judgment is when he loses control and his temper gets the best of him. He says that if someone comes at him, he will protect himself by fighting back. He said this when he strikes Reggie Miller at some point in one of their games. This is a bad choice on his part because not only does he put his career in jeopardy, but he also lets down his team mates and everyone who looks up to him as a hero or a role model. When young children see their hero punch someone, they are going to think it is an act that is permitted by all when in fact it is rejected by most. A final and recent act that Kobe made to lower his hero status is when he is charged of raping a woman. Kobe says that he is innocent of the charges that are being filed against him but instead he is guilty of committing adultery. This can probably be one of the worst acts that he can commit. Along with punching another NBA superstar, committing adultery is not something that parents want their children’s heroes to do. It gives them a wrong idea of what a hero or even a person should be when they commit a crime such as these. Kobe is an astonishing basketball player as well as a hero to countless people but he needs to discover ways of controlling his actions to an extent.
