LeBron Will Continue to Hold Cleveland Hostage

Via ESPN.com:

"I signed a contract in 2006 with an option," he said. "It would make no sense for me to sign that contract if I didn't keep my options open. I'll let you fill in the blanks."

I get that this is a business decision. But I still think it's a dick move by the Chosen One.

I believe LeBron will eventually re-sign with Cleveland. This is more about him becoming the most highly sought after free agent in the history of professional sports and all the media attention that comes along with it. Too bad he has to screw around with the great fans of Cleveland in the process.

The self-proclaimed Chosen One also spoke about dunk-gate:

"I never told anyone to confiscate any tapes. Nike has a no videotape policy at pick-up games. They've always done that. Now that LeBron is involved, it's blown up. It's a play that happens in basketball all the time. You can go on YouTube and see me being dunked on by a lot of guys."

And his poor sportsmanship:

"I wouldn't have done it the same. I would have done the media...

I look at the no handshake like this — during the regular season, no one ever shakes hands. You move on to the next game. I congratulated Dwight Howard through email and told him good luck in the Finals. Shaking hands is not a big deal to me. It's not being a sore loser, it’s moving on. Sometimes people want you to accept losing and I'll never accept losing."

Whatever...

I'm wearing the Superman cape tonight. In the last 45 minutes, I started this blog post, showered, got my 4 year old showered and dressed, dressed myself, changed a monsterous load in the diaper of my infant, dressed him, and then finished this blog post. Guess what?...the wife still isn't ready.
