Lebron will make announcement on TV

[blonthang]

Rumor is that LBJ also got the NBA commish to allow him to have his own uniform, not like any of his teammates or anyone else in the league for that matter: a cape, a crown, winged sneakers, gold lame' on the jersey and shorts, and in Miami the body powder dust he would usually toss will be, well, in Miami, .....

I can see the draw to Miami and playing with great superstars. Anybody can see that. But he can't sugercoat the fact that he is absolutely dumping the Cavaliers and leaving them stranded. They won't even be able to sign him and trade him for something in return. His home state too. They are going to hate him up there forever.

For once, I kinda agree with espn guys - why are the haters hating on James when he actually GAVE UP millions of $$ to go AND willing to not be THE man, in order to win?!?

And for all those bitching about James making millions, isn't that what capitalism is - make as much money legally as you can?!

Personally, I liked the fact that 5 schollies offered by phoenix university for kids. Focussing on education at any chance is always a good thing.

I am so pissed people watched. I was hoping America had better things to do. Maybe we'll get lucky and it won't start a trend.

Open letter from Cavaliers' owner
That is pure gold, right there... Can't blame him one bit although I think he went a little too far when he started talking about the "curse"

 

[Pitter09]

Awesome letter. I think the Cavs just became my 2nd favorite team.

Never been a fan of his and never will be.

I think Gilbert should quit beatin' around the bush & tell us what he really thinks of this decision.

HOOK 'EM,

Wow, and I stupidly believed that this county was all about "Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness". James deserves to be happy. The haters need to get a life and get over it.

I don't hate Lebron specifically, I just don't care. This represents everything I hate about pro sports. The players just cruise from team to team, and the fans are supposed to follow and support some local team they think represents them. It's bullcrap. It's just a business, I can't even watch them in the playoffs anymore.
But yeah, staging a prime time hat-picking type news conference places the guy in the Douchebag Hall of Fame.

Its not what he did...its how he did it. The whole ESPN Decision thing was absurd.

James showed himself to be a publicity ***** and ESPN hit a new low. I don't blame the Cleveland fans for being pissed. I'm pissed about it and coulld care less about James or the NBA.
