I'd like to call a moratorium on "Le[Word]" because they all suck.

I don't even know what to say about this since it's foolish on almost every level imaginable.

:D

You don't seem to know what to say about a lot of things........ but you certainly manage!

I think you probably know that it's tongue-in-cheek.

Cavaliers Owner Seen Driving to Miami in Astronaut Diaper

MIAMI (The Borowitz Report) -- Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert has been spotted driving to Miami wearing a so-called "astronaut diaper," eyewitnesses reported today.

Mr. Gilbert had been seen earlier in the day in a Wal-Mart in Tallahassee, pushing a shopping cart filled with duct tape and pepper spray.

The Cavaliers owner was overheard muttering to himself, "If I can't have LeBron, no one can."

"what's the difference between saturn and lebron james? they're both big and full of gas, but at least saturn has rings."

They should have had LeBron quit 2/3rds of the way through this Heat celebration - it could have been like the Boston series.

Apparently LeBron took a walk and went for brunch today...and he didn't even check with CB4 and DWade before doing it...he just did it #wha?

ICE, you are being a bit forgetful about where this crap franchise he left is though. Cleveland. 45 minutes away from where LeBron was born and raised. Home of some of the most passionate, yet the most tortured fans in sports. A city with 3 major sports--all 4 for a couple years--which hasn't won a championship in any of them since 1964. LeBron was raised around this. He knows what winning a championship in Cleveland would mean to northeast Ohio.

But he chose not to be the hero that brings his hometown that championship.

And he announced it on national TV. On a special that HE requested.

All to hang out with some buddies on South Beach.

Sure, I'm no fan of the NBA. But LeBron--I want to respect him, but he apparently just doesn't get it. No one really cares about championships won. People care what championships *mean*.
