It's More Than A Game For LeBron James

After LeBron James humiliated himself with the primetime ESPN spectacle and his cowardly betrayal of the Cleveland Cavaliers, I had to delete the original hub. Obviously everything is a game for LeLoser. I couldn't be happier that he's gone and can never come home.

Thank God for Dan Gilbert, majority owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers. His passion and never quit attitude is exactly what Cavaliers fans need to get rid of the stench from LeLoser James. Mr. Gilbert admitted his mistakes regarding babying and spoiling LeLoser. But LeLoser will never admit what a huge mistake he made by stabbing his hometown in the heart; he doesn't get it and probably never will.

Now that the truth about LeLoser -- or maybe LeQuitter -- is coming out, the wound he inflicted on us is actually a badge of honor. Though it hurt in some basketball-talent-loss ways, the pain is worth it to be free of a phony, egomaniac like LeLoser. Let Wade and Bosh win his precious rings for him. LeLoser can wear them but they'll never have any real value. All the rings in the world are worthless when they were received in exchange for integrity.

Adrian Wojnarowski, Yahoo Sports, summed things up pretty well:

"They ended up with that split-screen of the King’s jersey burned live on his infomercial, as this sad, lost robot sat in a leafy suburban gymnasium with children as props and the world watching, those empty eyes masking a lost, dazed LeBron James(notes). This was the champagne shower for the Championship of Me, an exercise in self-aggrandizement and self-loathing that will have far-reaching implications for the NBA and James. What a spectacle, what a train wreck.

As the worst idea in the history of marketing unfolded, James looked trapped somewhere between despondence and defiance. His bumbling buddy Maverick Carter had walked him into the public execution of his legacy, his image, and there was a part of James that clearly wished he could turn back through the doors and hide. Only, it was too late. No going back now. James goes to the Miami Heat, Cleveland goes into a basketball Hades and LeBron’s legacy becomes that of a callous carpetbagger.

“His brand is [bleep] now,” one high-level NBA official said late Thursday. “He’s destroyed everything.”

The Championship of Me became the Championship of Flee, because LeBron James doesn’t believe he can be the centerpiece of a title team. He needed Dwyane Wade, a closer, far more than Wade needed him.

Yes, he’s ruined everything. What a wonderful idea: Divorce your childhood sweetheart on national television and tell her, hey, I’ll let you keep the “We are all Witnesses” billboards lording over downtown Cleveland."
