Koeb Bryant now known as "The Doberman"

Maybe he also chose it because he's long-limbed, black (okay, just his hair) and brown, and a softie inside but likes to be thought of as fierce?

Blah. I wouldn't give him the honor of a nickname of any dog. They're not even in the same catagory. imo.

I hope Kobe matches up against someone on Germany's team nicknamed "The German Shepherd." Then, and only then, will it settle the argument as to which is the most versatile dog -- The Doberman OR The German Shepherd

That is, until team Belgium arrives with their secret weapon, "The Malinois"...

LOL...geez, ha, sorry if this is stupid.
