I agree with you completely

I thought that he acted like an idiot with the decision and his welcome to Miami celebration in which he talked about how many rings they were going to win.  I just get tired of Americans having a holier than thou attitude and seeming to love to tear public people down when they get the chance.  I think there is a hint of jealousy of people like LeBron having millions and seeming to have everything they could want in life and more.  I think a lot of people like to take shots at people like him when the opportunity presents itself.  As somebody who has done a few idiotic things and is thankful they are not broadcast to the masses I try to give people like LeBron a break.  It must be hard to grow up in the limelight and have people watch and critique everything you do.  More specifically there have been many athletes who have done a lot worse things than  act like a egotistical ass and have gotten less media attention because they are not as big a star as LeBron.  I am referring to the many domestic violence episodes, weapons charges, DUI's etc.   LeBron has done none of these things, he really was only guilty of believing his own hype and acting like the king.  We like to give nicknames, but do not like people crowning themselves smile

... but question

LBJ remains an AP Ambassador, and is usually always seen with a terrific AP on the wrist.

I agree. I am not a Miami Heat fan

but I like Lebron. He made a mistake with the decision but has received way too much criticism for it and any other perceived transgressions. It just seems like a large part of America dislikes him and wants him to fail. He has grown up a lot in Miami, I ... 

I'll admit to being one of the ones who rooted against him.

After the decision and how that was handled. And then there were a few other remarks he made shortly afterwards. But I got to tell you, the people around him did a horrible job in letting that happen. ESPN exploited it too. As a side note, I was thrilled ... 

I agree with you completely
