FC Barcelona honors Kobe Bryant with ‘Mamba Mentality'-inspired road uniforms

Kobe Bryant will always be remembered as a Lakers legend and one of basketball's all-time greats. But in February 2009 — in the middle of his 13th NBA season — Bryant appeared on the cover of ESPN the Magazine wearing another team's uniform and playing an entirely different sport. The cover shot showed Bryant in full FC Barcelona gear and performing some pretty fancy footwork with a soccer ball. In a video for ESPN the Magazine, Bryant explained that he was a longtime soccer fan who had become 'captivated' by superstar Ronaldinho, who played for Barca from 2003-2008. 'That's how I started following the team,' Bryant said, 'and from that point forward I just stuck with them.' Now, more than 16 years later, Barcelona players will be wearing Bryant-inspired uniforms. Revealed Tuesday by Nike and Barca, the team's 2025-26 away kits will feature a number of nods toward the late NBA legend and his famous Mamba Mentality. The colors are variations of the Lakers' purple and gold. A snakeskin pattern is featured on the shorts and portions of the jersey. Bryant's 'Kobe Sheath' logo appears prominently, including on the upper right section of the jersey where the Nike Swoosh would normally be placed. 'Born from a shared obsession with relentless self-improvement, the partnership brings the Kobe Sheath to professional football for the first time through a collection that captures the dedication and values central to Kobe's legacy and Barça's DNA,' Nike said in a press release. 'The collaboration celebrates Kobe's lifelong love for football and admiration for FC Barcelona's joyful style of play and philosophy. In return, Barça recognizes Kobe as a driving force in global sport who lived by the discipline and drive for greatness that defines the club.' Barcelona wasn't shy in promoting the new look on Instagram. 'Two icons, one shared story,' the team wrote in one post. 'A collaboration born from mutual admiration and the values that unite us: talent, commitment, and passion.' Barca added in another post: 'The Mamba Mentality is in us.'

Tom Brady On Prioritizing Football During Gisele Bündchen Marriage

During the last few years of Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady's marriage, there was a lot of chatter about how Tom was splitting his time between football and family. In a 2018 docuseries about Tom's career, Gisele expressed disappointment that her then-husband opted to continue playing football beyond 2016 after previously saying he'd retire. For context, Tom and Gisele share two children, Vivian and Benjamin, who are now aged 15 and 12. He also has a 17-year-old son, Jack, from a previous relationship. 'When I met him in 2006, he said, 'Listen, I'm just gonna play for 10 more years, I'm gonna win one Super Bowl, and I'm gonna be happy,'' Gisele recalled. 'I told him last year [in 2016], 'I think this is great, what a great win. Now you've won two Super Bowls, it's the end of the tenth year.' And I was like, 'Woohoo, let's go! I'm ready!' But then he's like, 'No.'' 'Football, as far as I'm concerned, is his first love. I think it's his main love, really quite frankly,' she added, saying in a subsequent confessional: 'It's about priorities. What are the priorities?' At long last, the quarterback announced his retirement in February 2022, and Gisele was among those to publicly celebrate the milestone. Then, just 40 days later, he backtracked and revealed that he wasn't ready to give up football after all. Reports at the time claimed that Gisele 'wasn't thrilled' by Tom's unretirement, and in May 2022, the supermodel seemed to suggest as much during an interview with British Vogue, in which she said: 'I don't think relationships just happen; it's never the fairy tale people want to believe it is. His focus is on his career, mine is mostly on the kids.' So, when Tom and Gisele divorced in October 2022 — just a few weeks after his 23rd NFL season kicked off — it was widely speculated that his unrelenting focus on football was the catalyst for the split. For what it's worth, Gisele later denied this was the case, telling Vanity Fair in March 2023: 'I have always cheered for him, and I would continue forever. If there's one person I want to be the happiest in the world, it's him, believe me. I want him to achieve and to conquer. I want all his dreams to come true.' As we now know, Tom's 23rd season wound up being his last, as he officially retired (again) in February 2023. If you follow Tom on Instagram, you'll see he spends a lot of his time with his three kids. Although, he's also talked openly about his past failings as a dad, saying at an event in 2024: 'I've screwed up a lot as a parent.' After saying that being "a parent is probably the hardest job all of us have," Tom talked about wanting to be "dependable and consistent" for his children. Now, the 47-year-old has opened up about parenting again — this time, seemingly defending his decision to prioritize football while his kids were young. In the July 29 edition of his 199 newsletter, Tom pondered the balance between 'personal satisfaction and professional achievement,' writing: 'I think part of being a great father is being a great example of doing what it takes to take care of your family. I chose to do it by playing football.' 'My dedication to the sport, the hours of practice, the moments when I was laser focused—those were times when I believe I was doing the best possible thing for my family and my kids,' he wrote. 'By prioritizing my profession and teaching, by example, what it takes to be really good at your job, what it takes to follow through on commitments, what it takes to be a great teammate; and showing them, also by example, that work is a big part of all of our lives.' Reminding readers that your children 'see what you do in every aspect of your life and how you do it,' Tom highlighted that 'reading bedtime stories and helping them with homework are not the only ways to be a great parent.' 'And neither is winning Super Bowls or MVP,' he added. 'Being a great football player didn't make me a great dad, but how I became a great player certainly had an impact—from showing up day in and day out, to doing whatever it took to get better, be successful, be a role model, and to provide.' He makes some valid I do have to wonder what Gisele would have to say about it all. LMK your thoughts in the comments!

A.J. Brown again admits that Super Bowl glory still feels hollow

A.J. Brown again makes it clear. Super Bowl glory just simply wasn't enough Remember when the Seattle Seahawks outlasted the San Francisco 49ers in the 2013 NFC Championship game? Remember when Erin Andrews put that microphone in Richard Sherman's face a few minutes later and he bellowed something about Michael Crabtree being a "sorry receiver"? Some people didn't know how to take that, Philadelphia Eagles fans included. Can we be honest here? Buckle up because here's some brutal honesty. No one should have been upset at Sherman for what he said. Statements like his are what you will sometimes get when you shove a mic in someone's face for his opinion, especially when you do so a few seconds after he spent three hours playing an emotional game that ended as his did. Is it possible that, had he been allowed to calm down, maybe he would have provided a calmer answer? No, this is Richard Sherman. Maybe he wouldn't have, but you get the point. At least you should have. This is what happens when one clamors for continual insider access. Sometimes, you're going to get something you didn't think you asked for. What does this have to do with A.J. Brown? Thank you for the question. We're glad you asked! A.J. Brown reiterates his lack of fulfillment after Super Bowl glory Access... It's a powerful tool, but you have to use it wisely. If you open a social media account, there will be trolls, especially if you use your handle to express your opinions about subjects people care about deeply. They say drunk men tell no lies. That's true, but the statement needs to be amended. Recently, A.J. Brown was interviewed by NFL Network's Judy Batista and Colleen Wolfe after a training camp practice, and while opening up, he restated something he had mentioned months earlier. It didn't take very long for him to revisit the desire to get on the field and compete again. To Batista's question about how much time he took to celebrate and enjoy Super Bowl glory, he offered the following: "(I turned the page) two or three days afterwards. I was so excited to win and to try to fulfill that fulfillment, and it wasn't fulfilling to be honest. Days like these (training camp practices) are fulfilling. It's the process. It's coming out and going to work with your brothers in 95-degree heat, you know, and just really just playing the game, you know? Obviously, we want to win, and we're doing it to win. But, it's a part of the process and the everyday journey. It's the hunt for me." Honestly, can you find fault in anything he said? Guess what? People did. A.J. Brown shared the same sentiment just days after Super Bowl 59 in a now-viral Instagram post. He was criticized. Frankly, we still can't understand why, but that takes us back to the earlier statement about Richard Sherman's famous outburst. If you thirst for behind-the-scenes access and spend your time following people you find interesting, you're sometimes going to discover more than you bargained for. That doesn't make these athletes bad people. It doesn't make them selfish or self-centered. It makes them human. Philadelphia's star wide receiver is a great guy with a great heart. We've never felt anything to the contrary. He wears his emotions on his sleeve, but again, that doesn't have any bearing on his character. Here is how you should handle that if his emotions are a problem for you. Stop following him on X and Instagram because if his emotions make you that angry, that isn't an A.J. Brown problem. Remember... It's social media. It's supposed to be fun. Write that on the tablet of your hearts, and you won't be so irritated. That's just some free advice. Use it wisely. Let's get back to some football.
