the decision

First off, I have no dog in the LeBron fight. I could care less where he went, although as an NBA fan, I wanted him out of Cleveland. Why? Cause it's fucking Cleveland! What NBA fan would want the game's most exciting player to play for Cleveland?

So the King chooses Miami and drops a big Cleveland Steamer on the state of Ohio.

Fuck Dan Gilbert. He addressed an open letter to Cavs fans right after James announced his decision. He basically trashed him and called him a coward for leaving and said he quit during the playoffs. Ok, guy, he was there for 7 years and you never put the talent around him to win. I'm sure you bent over backwards to make sure he was comfortable and his family and friends were taken care of, but shut up.

What player is going to read that and want to play for Dan Gilbert? What a baby.

And to the people burning his jersey, I understand you're pissed, but really?

It's kinda like the Cal decision here. I look at it like the best 9 years of Tiger basketball (in my lifetime). Yeah, it sucks he left, and everyone was real pissed off, but now...I'm over it. Cavs fans should look at it like they were really lucky to have LeBron for 7 years. Yeah, he didn't win any rings, but who could when the second best player is 33 year old Antawn Jamison?

Yes, LBJ was douche to the max for giving a 1 hour ESPN special to announce the destruction of the Cavs, but get over it. It's not 1995. The Cavs aren't just going to leave town (I don't think) like the Browns.

And hey, Mike Miller is joining the Heat too. That's kinda cool. Didn't realize Mighty Mike was tight with LBJ. So the Heat have 5 players assuming Miller signs. LBJ, Bosh, Wade, Miller and Chalmers.

The Heat traded the number 2 pick in the 08 Draft, Michael Beasley, to the Wolves for a second round pick. Damn! Wolves stealing talent. Nice play for them.

MLB

So the Yankees are about to get Cliff Lee in a trade. Sheesh, that's just not even fair.
