Lebron James (Los Angeles Lakers)

Still don't get this... Guy did what he wanted to do. Yes, we hate his decision but like I said when he left Ohio, this has nothing to do with him hating Ohio or whatever. He wants to win, and he's going to do what he thinks will get him rings. Obviously, he took the pussy way out to join up with superstars to get it done (and they will this year), and he handled his departure poorly but that doesn't mean he hates the state or what it stands for.

Guy loves Ohio, and as evidence he loves OSU football. His job took him elsewhere, obviously not a popular decisin, but that shouldn't mean he can't root for his state's school.

He's a Kentucky basketball fan http://twitter.com/BrandonWeems10 and yet people say he's a huge Ohio State supporter...lol. He likes our football program b/c they were successful during his formative years (2002). Just like he's a Yankee, Cowboys, and Bulls fan. His affinity for Ohio State football has nothing to do for his love of the state. If he loved the state he would have kept 25,000 jobs in Ohio and tried to bring a starving city a title...but he's a bitch.

His decision to have "The Decision" on national TV knowing the title of his show is just another slap in the face to our state/city shows as much. Guy is a fraud and a douchebag.

And if it were about rings he wouldn't have left for Miami. Any rings he wins are tainted and discredited. Everyone knows he should win rings in Miami, hell 3 of the top 10 players in the world play for them. THEY SHOULD WIN. So when they do, who gives a [censored]? Any rings he wins in this manner are immediately shot down. Winning rings by rigging the league isn't really the best way to gain respect...

Such a coward. Such a bitch....As good as the party scene will be, its only good for so long. He gave up a legacy of being a hero to be in Miami and enjoy in sex parties...its sad and frustrating.

"It's just about control and not doing it the way it's always been done or not looking the way that it always looks," Carter said.
O'Brien asked if race played a role.
"I think so at times," James said. "It's always, you know, a race factor."
Said Carter: "It definitely played a role in some of the stuff coming out of the media, things that were written for sure."
Well; at least they brought Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson in to help improve his image and defend his decision.

so he's a UK bball fan, a osu football fan, and a Yankee fan........anyone notice a trend? I'll bet he's a Saint's fan too, no wait, a Cowboy fan, no, a Giants fan, no, a Colts fan.........etc

He's a Cowboys fan. Must be because of the 90's. Fuckin bitch.

Anyways, race has nothing to do with him being an asshole. I hate fucking race I wish we were all the same color so people would shut up. It's reverse racism in my opinion. It's all bullshit, race is only an issue when you make it one.

LeBron James and his business partner and close friend Maverick Carter both said yes in an interview on CNN Wednesday night

I wonder if LeBron and his various "close friends" would consider the possibility that homophobia played a role as well?

I was listening to Rome about this...I was curious to know where his stance was. He had several "emails" from "clones" who were African-American, and even an African-American caller from Akron, who all said that the statements both of them made show just how immature they really are.

The caller said, "He keeps making mistake after mistake. Someone needs to tell him to keep his mouth shut and play basketball. He just doesn't get it and he probably never will." He also went on to say that comments like that make a mockery of the racism in America that happened in the sixties and LeBron should be ashamed of himself.

Wow, he's now playing the race card for his spin-doctoring.

I guess if this doesn't work, he can move on to blaming the "economy" or "Al-Qaeda" for the growing dissent.

Lebron is one PR nightmare after another.

I don't usually care about the NBA, but this year I'll be sure to cheer against the Heat and Lebron every time just because.
I find it hilarious how quickly he went from the king of the nba to a joke. Someday he's going to look back at this and wish he'd just stayed in Cleveland.
