Lebron is an idiot though. He was given advice from everyone and didnt listen. He thought he was good money. Lebron is yet to grasp the idea of how America works according to athletes. And I say America because this si the only place where we really overvalue athletes and paint them as role models. In Europe, they know from jump that soccer stars are going to act crazy and wild, and fukk a whole bunch of bytches and just be loose cannons. Here we get shocked by the smallest of things. OH MY GOD Tiger Woods fukks other bytches? HOW DARE HE? How dare he be a rich athlete with every female wanting to fukk him and not succumb to his primal urges? Americans need to re-prioritize their values
because this is why we're so fukked as a nation economically, physically, mentally, intellectually, etc. and we have the resources ans money to be number 1 in everything but we're not even close. We overvalue the fukk out of entertainment as a society. That is something I can say everyone int he world does now. The same men who were slaves to the stadium in Roman times are now making more than those who watch them. Of course the money men still own them but I dont understand a man gets 100 million dolalrs to play a fukking game. He initially contributes nothing to society but entertainment and we're paying him 100 million dollars? And why did we conform to rising prices for jerseys, tickets, etc. I can go on for days about this because its not just sports. Its everything. And ppl wonder why shyt is the way it is now. The number for everything went up around us but the paycheck stayed the way it was at a certain point causing this total fukkup. Everyone thought more money was gonna be made and they were wrong. The avg salary is actually going down man.fukk sports right now nikkas tryna eat out here. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/09/business/economy/as-recovery-drags-on-income-and-wealth-lag.html

Follow me to the truth
i think Bron did listen to him and he is fake to a degree but that's because everyone around him prepares everything for him and tries to keep him being the good guy. only time i seen Bron not come off as fake was last year at the presser after they lost the finals.

I feel what you're saying. I have often questioned the value of sports and even tried (tried) to stop watching and supporting this nonsense.
But again I have to ask: what did LeBron do wrong?

.....seriously How is Lebron fake?
TBH IN this society its the little things that make for big results. Just by the whole televising your decision on national television and aligning with stars, people were rubbed the wrong way, including myself. As a Knick fan I was extra salted, but I just accepted the fact Lebron crumbles under pressure and he wouldve been ran out of NY anyway. But back to the point, Lebron fukked up with all that shyt during his free agency. It showed who he really was though. Someone with a swelled head who was so smug he had to nationally televise his decision to go to a team. I mean if we look at the NFL Free Agency, Peyton Manning was the biggest NFL Free Agent ever and his signing went smoothly with little drama. Something that also plays into it is the fact that people always canonize public figures beginning to worship them and expecting them to do no wrong or have no negative traits about them. Then when they see someone make a mistake it is a huge deal.

nikkas refuse to answer the question of what LeBron did wrong. What did he do?
LeBron didn't do anything wrong but feed into what the media made him to be, and then subsequently get blamed for it.
I think doing 'The Decision' was stupid, and that his pr team (or homie Maverick, whatever) should've headed that off, but we had already made him the most important person in the sport. So what's an ESPN special to the most important person to the sport? Nothing.
But America for some reason values loyalty in their athletes. They expect it out of them, even though, as we saw with Peyton Manning and Jim Irsay, these teams will drop you and never look back. So it became, "oh, LeBron left Cleveland, he's not loyal, fukk that negro." LeBron was just looking out for self. For basketball reasons, I don't like teaming up to win a 'chip, but he did what he had to do. I'm not about to vilify the man.
