Kobe's company trademarking incredibly apt phrase for loner superstar

Mark L. Baer-USA TODAY Sports

Kobe Bryant has been planning his post-playing business empire for some time now, forming his own company, Kobe Inc., in 2014.

Those plans apparently include trademarking the phrase "Friends Hang Sometimes, Banners Hang Forever," according to filing details found on Justia Trademarks, an Internet legal platform. The filings under Kobe Inc. also show previous company phrases such as "Dream Epic", which is trademarked on his Twitter bio.

If there is a more appropriate slogan for Bryant, it would be incredibly difficult to think of it. For the record, the Los Angeles Lakers superstar has five NBA championship banners attributed to him.
