TP for WOJO. You can say he has it out for LeQueen and he just might but WOJO is spot on about him and even more right about what ESPN is. I hope James does go to the Knicks for the sole purpose of being able to see him being pulled down the street durring the Macy's Day Parade his huge ego inflated head right behind the likes of Kermit the frog and Snoopy.

GREAT READ & Find thanks.

wow. That is a scathing article. That is more than an article. That's the sports commentator's version of a diss track on LeBron's whole crew. That is worse than "The Takeover", "Ether", and "Hail Mary" all put together.

that is excellent writing.

the piece was articulate, focused, honest, and beautifully constructed.

it has a wonderfully crafted style that points out the vanity of a shallow, unreflective individual whose visions of the world and himself are impaired by blinding egoism and syncophants.

lebron casts only a blind eye towards anything that does not serve his need for affirmation and validation. he reflects and promotes a shallow life that requires flash instead of substance, selfish ego instead of generous spirit.

lebron is revealed as an emperor sans clothing, as a symbol for what is flawed about the sport of professional basketball provided to us by david stern.

that is excellent writing and it points out a truth with out blinking or hesitation.

tp for posting it.

I feel like Wojnarowski is publishing the same article over and over again, just with different adjectives describing his distaste for all that is LeBron James.

Still love it though.

Well, I guess everyone else has been writing the same articles about free agency this summer, too. Wojo just has a less worshipful perspective.

But the takedown has been on ever since LeBron phoned in game 5 versus Boston. It is a great antidote to ESPN's slavering coverage.

Also, isn't there now a conflict of interest over at ESPN? The TV people must very much want James's decision to be secret before their special. Does that mean the online and radio reporters have less reason to try and ferret out leaks over the next 24 hours? If his choice is going to leak I expect it to be over at Yahoo first.

TP to Woj for this one.  It's as though he was able to express my own feelings in words, thereby surpassing common standards for sports commentary and approaching the the very essence of the poetic arts.

I can't believe the media has fed into this as much as they did.  It's about time someone let LeBron have it.  He isn't bigger than the game and all that trying to upstage the finals.  I hope he never wins a title.

It's so easy to trash people in the media nowadays.

You guys don't think a trashing of Lebron article is going to sell Adrian's name too?

It is easy, but not many are doing it to James. I also hope it does get Wojo's name out there more, but since it trashes ESPN as well it wont get any play from them.

I get it, Woj.  You don't like Lebron. 

You clearly have an axe to grind.  We all get it.

Now, move on to something else already.
