    Bryant back in Nike ads two years after arrest

    Full Story


    DENVER (AP) -- Nike is using photos of Kobe Bryant for the first time since his arrest two years ago for an alleged assault on a female employee at a Colorado resort.

    ``Nike agrees with most NBA observers that Kobe ranks among the very best players in the NBA, and his training and preparation are key elements of his game,'' said Nike spokesman Rodney Knox.
    Its about time they decided that let him have some of his ads back again.

    At least Artest hasn't "raped" or "killed" anyone. Yet.
