Lebron has a press conference Thursday at 9EST.
Sounds like something Brett Favre would do. Ugh.
Frank Isola, New York Daily News: “James’ self-importance reached new levels of absurdity Tuesday night when ESPN confirmed that the NBA’s top free agent will announce his future plans in an hour-long special.”
Michael Ozanian, Forbes: “If this goes down it will confirm three things: There is no longer any difference between reality television programming and professional sports; ESPN has become a parody of itself; the game has become less relevant than its star players.”
Jim Litke, Associated Press: “This much attention for a guy who has yet to win a championship — let alone a game in the finals — is wrong on so many levels that it's hard to know where to begin.”
Kurt Helin, NBC Sports: “It seems impossible — and even more egomaniacal — to have Cleveland learn if its heart is broken on national television. Same with the other cities that will feel shunned if and when James turns his attention to whatever city he chooses. This all has the potential to be a public relations disaster for James.”
Tony Massarotti, Boston Globe: “Like Brett Favre, James effectively owns ESPN anyway. At least now we know there is a formal business agreement between the world’s most self-indulgent network and its most self-absorbed star.”
Mark Bradley, Atlanta Journal Constitution: “ESPN the TV network is apparently putting LeBron James on its air without ESPN’s many and distinguished reporters knowing what he’ll say, which is really the only free-agency story worth breaking…. Apparently the Worldwide Leader is content to be his silent partner/enabler. And I say: Good grief.”
"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming
Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
