    What an ass. He's selling ads for the program and donating the proceeds to the boys and girls clubs of america.

    He is an ass. Why doesn't he just write them a check? He can hide behind the BAGC all he wants for his little hour long blow LeBron session, but the truth is that he's doing this because he's an attention whore. Since when do marquee free agent's announce their decisions during an hour long show on TV? Cut the BAGC a check for millions and get off your high horse, LeBitch.

    Yeah, but why send the BAGC your own money when you can make sponsors pay for it instead? He doesn't have to spend a dime but gets all the good publicity, and of course the attention... win-win.

    Yeah, he's an ass.

    I haven't heard/read anything about this special aside from this thread, but is it possible perhaps ESPN approached LBJ about this rather than him being the one to instigate it? I'm completely spitballing here, but ESPN could have looked at it as: "Oh a chance for huge ratings, let's do an hour long special instead of just the normal press coverage." They approach LBJ and he says, "Sure, as long as the proceeds go to Boys and Girls Club."

    I mean, I'm probably wrong, but it would be nice for a change if someone wasn't a huge asshole.

    Just go to ESPN.com dude. Figure it out. The story clearly says Lebron's posse went to ESPN.

    I hope he does the Three Card Monty thing with the a ball caps, like how the high school kids do. That would be perfect!

    Douche.

    What the fuck, an hour?! How long does it take to say it? Is he going to make it a riddle, and give clues every 3 minutes, with time for peopel to guess, and then at the end, announce it? First clue, they had a river start on fire. Oh shit, I'm an idiot. That gives it away. Cut cameras. Fuck him. He's without a doubt an attention whore. And then to read he might sign a 2-3 year deal, so he can do it again? Fuck me. Sorry, I'd worry about karma if every one of our guys didn't get cancer in their torn ACL last season, but I hope he hurts himself, and I never hear about his career again. Just so sick and tired of Lebron. Lebron. Lebron. ugh. yeah. I'm a dick, I don't care. Just tired of him. And I don't find him entertaining to watch, which is what bugs me more when he gets shoved down our throats. I hope he stays in Cleveland.

    I would have done a 6 hour special, one for each suitor.

    he's said multiple times that he missed the whole "college recruiting" experience...which I assume means the three-card monte hat thing.

    This is... bizarre. I don't know what he needs a whole hour to do with this show, but I guess we'll find out.

    By comparison, the draft lottery only gets 30 minutes. That's the closest thing I can think of.

    It would have been better if you were quoting the "fuck the kids" post, but I actually laughed out loud, which is rare when I'm reading stuff on the internet. Very nice. Maybe others didn't get the reference.
