LeBron-a-thon Is Over!

Now that the LeBron-a-thon is over, everyone can take a collective exhale.  I was amazed about the new level hype of all this has achieved.  No really, everyone, let us not kid ourselves, he does NOT have a championship ring...yet.  D'wane Wade already has one.  Furthermore, I was not impressed by LeBron's last playoff games.  The one key thing that superstars do on cue is deliver the goods.  MJ and Kobe are perfect examples of players that can and will deliver to their team when necessary.  LeBron has one one to blame but himself for his shortcomings in Cleveland. 

Which leads me to my next topic Cleveland.  You guys fell in love with your superstar because you actually thought that he would be the savior that would bring glory to your little shithole town.  Sorry, but for me personally, other than financial gain, I would never plan any trip to that city.  Things happen in the BIG cities like Boston, Los Angeles, NYC, and Miami.  No offence, but you don't have people lining up to move into your town. 

Don't believe the hype.  You did, Nike did, the mayor did, and now you guys burning his jerseys and have several million haters.

As for the owner of the team, Mr. Dan Gilbert, who is responsible for making TurboTax and Quicken Loans (and worth 1.1B)  should sell the team.  Your best asset left the team and you will die before you find any one person that can replace this guy.  You found the goose that laid the golden egg and you kicked that goose to a sunny state.  Sell your team and get a new hobby because you will be embarassed further when the Miami Heat show up and rip your sorry team a new one.
