http://www.playerpress.com/articles/11453-lebron-james-not-very-popular-these-days LeBron James used to be one of the most popular figures in professional sports and know it looks as though his move from the Cleveland Cavaliers to the Miami Heat is not the only noteworthy move that he made this year. On the popularity scale, James has made a significant move as well, downwards. According to CNBC, the Q Scores Company, which conducts popularity polls among celebrities, has James rated as the sixth-most-disliked figure in American pro sports. According to the Q Scores report, James is viewed in a negative light by 39 percent of the general population. In January, while still a Cleveland Cavalier, he was viewed positively by 24 percent of the population and only negatively by 22 percent. At that time, James popularity was the highest that the company had ever seen. Right now, only 14 percent of the people polled still view James in a positive manner. The only answer to this dramatic drop in popularity is that American people do take kindly to someone who is selfish and conspires with other NBA stars to all sign with the same team in order to win an NBA championship and then milks the media for everything he can in the process.
