LeBron James is a drama queen. There, I said it. Thanks to this overgrown, muscle-bound diva, I will spend my Thursday night watching ESPN at 9:00 sharp, in order to see which team he’ll be playing for next year. This guy made every team on his wish list come to him, and now he’s making his announcement on prime time. The level of theatrics behind this saga is oddly similar to both Michael Corleone from The Godfather and Vince McMahon from WWE Monday Night Raw. Never before has the line between greatness and over-the-top bullsh*t been so masterfully blurred!
As much as I’m making jokes about how LeBron James has handled his free agency, his plan is working to near perfection. I will be tuned in the broadcast tonight in order to see where he ends up. The only reason I said “near perfection” is because the level of hype is almost impossible to live up to. The only way that LeBron James’ announcement can exceed expectations is if he tells the world that he’s signing with the Harlem Globetrotters. That would piss off the entire NBA, Nike, ESPN and everyone in Vegas betting on James’ future destination, which would in turn, amuse the f*ck out of me. Seriously, if that happens, I might giggle like a little hoe.
Speaking of Vegas and gambling, if you had to make a bet on where LeBron James is going to sign, which team would you put your money on?
I just want to know what else is happening during this hour of television. Seriously, after the “decision” is there any reason to keep watching?
*Dead @ giggle like a little hoe*
@ CurlyQ, I was on the treadmill an extra 20 minutes waiting to hear the announcement. I should have known they weren’t going to get directly to it
@ NAYDIA, I’m just saying… :-)
