    this is Lebron and his buddy who has no experience in the field, trying to control lebron's image so that the criticism falls back onto the people and not on Lebron. they are trying to create the image that "the decision" wasn't the problem, the problem was the reaction, and oh yeah racism played a role. Its making them both look dumb in the process and its insulting my intelligence.

    right, Lebron said that

    So, matt, you seem to be pretty intelligent. Why would you pose the question to me when it was Lebron's idea and not mine?

    LOL at yall negros thinking just because you are getting paid that white people don't think you're below them and not their property. It's about power and control, it's pretty obvious the Cavs owner had some entitlement issues! Plus anyone who feels being a millionaire means giving up your autonomy and self respect seriously lost, money alone won't make me give up my core beliefs and control.


    It just means some of you ? , are high paid slaves or is willing to be. Yeah that's a shot!

    thats gonna be the view that any owner has over someone, you know, he owns the rights to. but to bring slavery 'n ? into it is dumb and off base.

    What does have a racial element is the top hated list...

    http://www.cnbc.com/id/39170785
    In fact, LeBron is now the sixth most disliked sports personality, according to The Q Score Company, behind Michael Vick, Tiger Woods, Terrell Owens, Chad Ochocinco and Kobe Bryant.

    yeah..i did see that CNN interview...his buddy is 28 yr old high school team mate............ they made mistakes with this "decison" and the cavs made mistakes tooo..but i hate it when stupid ? say...dude was making 15 million so he cant get treated like a slave...

    of course he was making 15 million...but he is STILL a ? to white people.....lebron was good b/c he can run and jump for white people like a circus..then when he couldnt "entertain" them on the plantation...u burn his jersey and resort to cross burning.............
    who was mostly doing the jersey burning: WHITE PEOPLE....i never saw a ? in cleveland burning his jersey...............

    hell, while we are at it, Tim Tebow was a slave to the NCAA and University of Florida...he wasn't getting paid, but him performing helped the schools make millions of dollars. ? he wasn't even allowed to get a job. the NFL wouldn't let him enter after high school, or his freshman or sophomore seasons. guess thats age discrimination

    Oh really, lots of owners lose free agents all the time, i don't see them rallying up the majority white Cleveland fanbase and using words to make it seems like Lebron was his property. Dude did not own Lebron, he owned his contract and Lebron fulfilled it! You can continue to play that ? race has nothing to do with excuse, but we live in America, race will always be a part of it. Particularly when wealthy black men who have power is factored in.

    i think people with the mindset that racism is always a factor in things will always interpret any situation so that it conforms to their disposition that racism is always a factor.

    He didnt treat him like a slave if you ask me. He made huge investments in Lebron and felt like Lebron "owed" him some loyalty.

    Now, I dont think its a stretch to say that when Bron Bron announced he was going to Miami Gilbert's reaction was...

    "I know this muthafuckin, ? -suckin, N!GGER, didnt just say MIAMI!!!"

    Or something like that.

    You're an idiot and a stan..

    You know like everyone else know... That the backlash from what happen was due to LeBron decision on national television

    You're usually cooning it up for white people... Now you decide to call racism when Bron is in the mix


    You are seriously gonna sit here and tell me this ? , you are seriously simple as ? if you think this was strictly about the decision. It's about the fact that "he could" make the decision! You think for one damn second Favre would get anywhere the criticism Lebron is getting. LOL at me cooning for white people, you might want to look up the definition of that word, because i break perceptions of what is expected of my race while you just perpetuate them. It's easy to yell ? when your just another mindless sheep in the pulpit scared to be and individual and stand on your own.

    i am NOT sure why ? keep saying he is treated EXACTLY like those ? above^^^^^
    of course he was NOT treated like that literally........but that feeling was there in white peoples emotions towards lebron....he may be paid 15 mil..but in the end the" slavery mentality" was there all along..that as long as i am the white owner...you work for me..white people are like :how dare you live us black man..how dare u"
