I actually side with Lebron....

I recently came across an article entitled "Hey Lebron, It's Time to Grow Up" by some D-bag named Michael Rosenberg. His picture is located below:

For those of you who don't know, the Cavaliers recently lost the Eastern Conference Finals to the Orlando Magic. Lebron stormed off the court after the loss without talking to the media or saying anything to anyone on the other team. Rosenberg's calls out Lebron on this and tears into him pretty good. Well Rosenberg, you are an asshole. And I will dissect your article and show you why:

Let's start with Rosenberg's sarcastic comment at the beginning:

"It's hard for me to congratulate somebody after you just lose to them," he said.

I'm with you on that, LeBron. Absolutely, it is hard. Not as hard as, say, putting in 12-hour days at a manufacturing plant, and certainly not as hard as getting laid off from the aforementioned manufacturing plant, but it's hard.

First, that's a fucking stretch of a comparison. That would be like me saying "Wow work was hard today" and someone replying to that by saying "Not as hard as having AIDS". That's just something to make me feel worse. The two things aren't even comparable.

Second, I think Lebron has earned the right to say something is hard. What was your life like growing up Rosenbitch? Lebron's mom was 16 when she had him, his dad was an ex-con, and his mom's boyfriends were ex-con's. I can't imagine that life was easy by any stretch of the imagination.

Well now that the guilt-tripping part is over, onto Rosenberg's next point:

"It's not being a poor sport or anything like that. If somebody beats you up, you're not going to congratulate them. That doesn't make sense to me."

Well, it does make sense to me. And you know who agrees with me?

Michael Jordan!
[this was followed by a Michael Jordan quote, if you want to read it go to the original article.]

Oh goodie. A Jordan comparison. Let's put this to rest now. Lebron has done more for the Cavs in 6 starting years than Jordan did. Calm down, let me explain. It all boils down to one simple point: LEBRON HAS NO SUPPORTING CAST. He has single handedly taken an AWFUL franchise, put them on his back, and has brought them to the playoffs year after year. Here are some example comparisons:
Jordan was drafted in '84. From the '84-5 to '86-7 seasons, the Bulls finished under .500, including a DISMAL 30-52 to record in the '85-'86 season (ok, Jordan only played 18 games that year, but fuck you.) It wasn't until Jordan got his supporting cast [Grant and Pippen] in 1987 that the Bulls started going on a tear. Even then the Championships didn't start rolling in until 1991.

Lebron was drafted in '03 to a dreadful Cavs team. By Lebrons second season, the Cavs had actually tied for the 8th spot in the East (Nets owned the tiebreaker so no playoffs for the Cavs). Since 2005 the Cavs have been in the playoffs every year, and Lebron still has absolutely no one to look to if he's having an off night.

He then goes on to blah blah about some stats and kiss Lebrons ass a bit, but then comes this part:

But it was also just plain wrong. The difference between athletes and movie stars is that athletes can't just storm off the set. They are held accountable. When they fail, they're supposed to talk about it.

Really? Talk about it? Do you really think that the dumbass media is going to ask him about the game? The media is so fucking dumb it shocks me sometimes. He probably stormed off because a.) He's back is shot from carrying an entire franchise for 6 years and b.) HE DIDN'T WANT TO DEAL WITH YOU DUMBASSES ASKING THE SAME "ARE YOU STAYING IN CLEVELAND OR NOT BBLAH BLAH LOL BBQ ROFLCOPTER" SHIT OVER AND OVER.
Do you really think that's what he wants to deal with that after he played an INCREDIBLE postseason, only to lose because his team blows donkeys? HE STILL HAS ANOTHER YEAR LEFT ON HIS CONTRACT. He'll make his fucking decision at the end of 2010, when it expires, you morons. The sad thing is, when the media cornered him a day later, the ended up asking him that same question. Like he hasn't answered it 2,095,209 times already. Christ. Reporters are dumb. Journalists are tools.

Also, Michael Rosenberg, consider this: HE'S 24. 24 years old and he's been asked to shoulder the responsibility of carrying an entire shitty team to a championship. What the fuck were you doing at 24? I'm guessing you were a 'budding journalist'. And by that I mean you were rimming your editor so you could get your shitty article about post-it notes moved from page 30 to 28.
It's obvious after he played his heart out with zero support from his team that he didn't want to deal with the media and their inane questions. He wanted to get the hell back to Cleveland and his mind together.

So lay off him just because he stormed off. You gave him the nickname of "King", so if he wants to storm off, the King has the right to do so. Next time be more careful with your annoitings, idiots. 

In conclusion, Michael Rosenberg, you are a shithead. And you look like a pedophile. I'm guessing it's mandated that you have to introduce yourself to new neighbors. Creep.



PS. Sidenote: I'm from New York. I HATE CLEVELAND. Well not entirely, but I do have my grievances with the area. The Browns suck AND I FUCKING HATE THE INDIANS. Only a simpleton would build an open-air baseball field ON A FUCKING LAKE WITHOUT TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION ANY OF THE POSSIBLE WILDLIFE EFFECTS. Dumbasses. I would enjoy Lebron coming to New York, although I don't really care about the Knicks. This was written in defense of a great player and to prove that people who look like they touch kids should not post their picture on the internet. Thank you.

PPS. Please do not take this as a "Lebron is better than Jordan" rant. He's not. Not yet at least. Jordan is the best to ever play game. A debate on this is a whole different rant.
