And of course she's from Cleveland. I'm always astounded by how much artistic talent that area
produces. Maybe dealing with decades of unending sports pain as the metropolis crumbles into the
third world makes people plumb depths others can only imagine:
If [the Cavs] lose tonight, LeBron might leave.
Everyone wants to know which team LeBron James will decide to join. On Thursday, we will hear
from the King himself. At 9 p.m. ET, LeBron will host a sixty minute special on ESPN where he will
announce where he intends to sign. NBA fans from across the globe will tune in to see the answer to
the NBA's ultimate question.
To put it mildly, Felipe Alvarez is a huge fan of deceased Colombian footballer Andres
Escobar.
Escobar was the infamous defender who scored an own goal and was considered largely
responsible for the heavy favorite's shock defeat to the USA in the World Cup of 1994. Escobar
was shot to death in a Colombian street by a drug cartel member less then a week after the on the
pitch mistake was made, the captain of the national team was expected to sign a lucrative deal
with AC Milan that same summer.
Byron Scott is a brave man. The former coach of the New Jersey Nets and the New Orleans Hornets
will reportedly be named the new coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers even though he has no idea
whether or not LeBron James will be on his team.
It's the ultimate leap of faith for an NBA coach. If LeBron returns, Scott has perhaps the best
job in basketball and a legit chance at a championship year in and year out.
Quietly, Shaquille O'Neal is a free agent. With LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh hogging
the headlines, you'd never know it. But don't think 38-year-old Shaq is thinking about retirement.
In fact, Shaq says he wants to play for another two or three years.
Where will Shaquille O'Neal sign?
The sports world is still reverberating from LeBron James' announcement on live national
television that he was going to divorce Cleveland to go head to the seductive sands of South Beach.
Many have compared LeBron's decision to the famous heel turn authored by Hulk Hogan. In the video
below, you can now see LeBron James staring as Hulk Hogan.
If you are a basketball player, you want to be like Mike. That's not just a commercial, it's
also reality. Michael Jordan is the gold standard in the basketball world. So when His Airness
recently questioned LeBron James' decision to go to Miami, his words reverberated loudly.
Said Michael Jordan: "There's no way, with hindsight, I would've ever called up Larry, called up
Magic and said, 'Hey, look, let's get together and play on one team.
And of course she's from Cleveland. I'm always astounded by how much artistic talent that area
produces. Maybe dealing with decades of unending sports pain as the metropolis crumbles into the
third world makes people plumb depths others can only imagine:
If [the Cavs] lose tonight, LeBron might leave.
