Unintentional meat sponsorship.
With Bryant and the Lakers effectively stealing the Thunder from Kevin Durant and team, it seems that Kobe Bryant has set his sights on a new opponent: the entire Japanese city of Kobe.Kobe Bryant's father (nicknamed 'Jellybean') admits that he named his son after seeing the expensive and highly sought after Japanese beef on a menu in a restaurant.
Now, Bryant is suing the city of Kobe itself over naming rights to the beef. It seems he isn't too thrilled about the unintentional meat sponsorship, and I imagine the residents of Kobe aren't too happy either...

Verdict: It's a close call, but this house believes that the name rightfully belongs to the residents of Kobe, Japan, and that Kobe Bryant should feel honoured to be named after such a delicious type of meat.
If, however, the results of the case happen to go the other way, the residents of Kobe shouldn't be too ashamed either. And besides, things could be worse - at least Paris Hilton didn't think of it first.
