ESPN + Lebron James = Overhyped Piece of Shit


So this morning I'm getting ready for work and naturally I have ESPN Sports Center on the TV to have my daily catch up of what I missed in the sports world.

Anyway, I'm watching them go over some highlights of the Cavs/Knicks game and IMMEDIATELY talk about Lebron James becoming a free agent and his possible move to the New York Knicks.

Here is the problem with that:

HE IS NOT A FREE AGENT UNTIL 2010!!

What the fuck ESPN. Do you really think we care where Lebron James may end up in 2 years? IN TWO YEARS!? Anything can happen in two years. He can break his leg, he can break his face, he could wound up getting shot outside some club and die, and you're already doing a story on him now?

Where is KG's story because his free agency is up in 4 more years? What about Paul Pierce who is done in 3?

Oh wait, its Lebron James.

I forgot.

Its a guy who shouldn't have won the rookie of the year because Carmello Anthony had better numbers than him. Its a guy who cries whenever he is touched, but will then cry when he commits a foul and its called. Its a guy who will alley-oop all day but refuses to pass to his teammates.

I know "King" James is the all mighty, but why? What has he done that makes him a special player?

NOTHING!

Where is his NBA Championship ring? Where is his Larry O'Brien trophy?

Stop shoving Lebron James up our ass and down our throats. Stop taking your fan base for granted as a bunch of fucking idiots who can't remember that he's a UFA in 2010. Stop running three segments in a 1 hour show dedicated to Lebron James and his potential signing with the New York Knicks.

Yes you heard me.

This morning they had 3 segments about him playing for the Knicks and how special it would be and how alive the Garden would be and blah blah blah blah blah. OH BUT WAIT, Jay-Z is a partial owner of the NETS! STORY TIME AGAIN!

Its ridiculous and its a pain to have to listen to the same shit over and over from a company that spews as much bullshit as ESPN.

Don't get my wrong, I love ESPN. College football, Monday night football, Sports Center, PTI...all some good shit, but when they do moves like this it reeks of douchebagery!

if i were cleveland i would boycott games. i would stop buying his merch, because id know in two years he'll be wearing a different color.

and isnt it in his show contract that he'll make more money if he plays for chicago or new york? retarded if you ask me.

if luongo said 'yeah the rangers look pretty appealing to me right now' id stop fucking watching hockey. cleveland fans should do the same.
