Last one!

It's not entirely accurate though, it doesn't show a foot up his ass

Yeah, but look at all of that salary cap money the Cavs now have available. But, hey, it's still baseball season in Cleveland . . . oh, never mind.

His manner and way of announcing his move was definitely not a class act. It seems like he and a couple of his buddies have been planning this move for a couple of years. All because they want to be on a winning team, here is hoping the heat gets to be too much. But then I don't have much respect for pro athletes.

Some very poor quoates coming from those three today.

Their ego's are out of hand and this will come back and bite them.

Have you guys read the open letter from the majority owner of the Cavs? As ridiculous as coverage of the LeBron affair has been, this letter makes me think he did the right thing bailing from Cleveland.

The man had every right to go wherever he wants.

There are some who want to go for the gold watch and some who want to play the field.

George Brett might be the last hall of famer who spent his entire career with one team.

I agree that James had the right to go with any team that wanted him. That's what free agency is about. In our economic system, people are free to change jobs. Nevertheless, a big ego is offensive, even if the ego is justified by the talent.

Regards,

D-Ray
