As much as I'm not interested in the Lebron James extravaganza and would like to stay away from it, I would like to point out that booking on hour on ESPN to make a 10 second announcement doesn't make you important, it makes you a Dick.
It's no wonder this guy hasn't won a championship yet. He is more concerned about his image than his game. This move has all the maturity of a high school kid. Lebron had been in a category of guys I didn't really root for or against. This decision has changed that for me. Move over TO there is a new king of ego in town and he is a complete self absorbed A-Hole. My new hope for Lebron is a career that mirrors that of Karl Malone or Charles Barkley with great numbers and nothing to show for it.

ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of this from a Sports Guy column from 2006:
"So when someone asked him what other sports he watched, LeBron mentioned that he liked tennis, leading me to make the obligatory "men's or women's?" joke. This was followed by LeBron's making the obligatory frown and saying, "Women's ... I don't like men," and confessing that Maria Sharapova was his favorite player. I joked that he should go after her because they would be America's new power couple, which was followed by LeBron's nodding and saying -- in all seriousness -- "That day might present itself."
(Honestly? LeBron seemed more motivated about landing Sharapova than taking the Cavs to the Finals.)
