I don’t care where Lebron James decides to play basketball next year.
But everybody else seems to.
Okay, so this is sort of a gimme, since dedicated readers know, generally speaking, that I don’t care much about the NBA (including the exceptionally lengthy playoffs). But this Lebron James stuff is madness!
Some sample headlines from a regular ol’ Google search:
Cleveland fans greet, plead with Lebron James (NY Daily News)
James wield unprecedented power, takes Knicks for a ride (Seattle Post Intelligencer)
Betty White wants Lebron James to stay in Cleveland (Wall Street Journal)
Free agent Lebron James finally joins Twitter! (AP)
No comment from James, teaching kids skillziziz at summer camp (Plain Dealer)
But seriously, I mean, I was almost thankful that ESPN was showing the Nathan’s Annual Hot Dog Eating Contest for 15-20 minutes on Sunday so I didn’t have to hear about Lebron James’ bowel movements. (Although, speaking of bowel movements, that hot dog eating contest was really gross.)
What do you think? Do you care? Or has the media coverage pushed you over the edge at this point?
