^ So, if Wade and LeBron are Batman and Robin...what is Bosh...? Batgirl...? :dunno:

princelybug 07-08-2010 02:48 PM

Bosh is Batman's butler. :snicker:

Yumcha 07-08-2010 02:51 PM

Alfred works. :D

clpassenubye 07-08-2010 02:54 PM

How about the three Stooges I think Lebron would be a stooge for agreeing to equally split the money Bosh is not worth the same as Wade or Lebron.

princelybug 07-08-2010 02:55 PM

:agree:

I wonder what Wade's/Bosh's salaries are going to look like? :ponder:

More than you, me, and the entire board here will ever make in our lifetimes...




Okay, hang on. Except BoostedJack. He's richer than rich. He owns the NBA.

Well he's not THAT fat...

Lawyer sues LeBron, alleging he is his father
 
http://www.cnn.com/2010/SPORT/07/08/...ex.html?hpt=T2


Washington (CNN) -- A Washington lawyer has filed a lawsuit in federal court, claiming he is the father of basketball star LeBron James.

Leicester Stovell alleges that the athlete and his family have been involved in a cover-up to deny paternity by committing fraud and misrepresentation.

In the complaint, filed June 23, Stovell says, "I recently have concluded that a comprehensive, sophisticated and well-funded effort might well have been underway for quite some time, perhaps beginning in its present form as early as when defendant LeBron James was in high school, to frustrate identification of his real father, and that there is a likelihood that the father in question is me."

James is scheduled to announce Thursday evening the team he has chosen to play for next season, a deal worth perhaps tens of millions of dollars or more. He currently plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The lawsuit claims Stovell met James' mother, Gloria, in a Washington bar and restaurant in 1984, where she was visiting from Ohio. She was 16 at the time, Stovell says, and they had sex only once.

He says he was informed by Gloria James months later that she was pregnant. He claims she told him the child would be named LeBron, similar to Leicester Bryce, Stovell's first and middle names.

Stovell says he has been trying for three years to establish paternity, and asks for unspecified millions of dollars in damages.


He is a solo legal practitioner in the District of Columbia, and filed the lawsuit on his own behalf.

A call to LeBron James' attorney, Frederick Nance of Cleveland, Ohio, was not immediately returned.

The lawsuit had been filed without much initial publicity, but was reported by the TMZ celebrity website Wednesday.

Public records show Stovell is a former government attorney with the Securities and Exchange Commission. He filed a lawsuit in 2002 against the agency, alleging racial discrimination. Federal court records show the case was settled when the commission paid him $230,000, while not admitting fault.
:doh:

What a slap in the face to Cleveland that would be. I don't think he'll go on TV and abandon them.

Waiting for the riots if he does leave :wish: ;)

BraveDemon 07-08-2010 04:52 PM

Apparently LeBron has booked rooms at a hotel in south beach for his celebration party this weekend.

Looks like he's going to Miami.

Yumcha 07-08-2010 04:55 PM

:woot:

invisiblewar 07-08-2010 05:04 PM

Go Heat!

Moog-Type-S 07-08-2010 05:15 PM

King James is going to Miami....in Miami he will pay no city or state income tax.

BraveDemon 07-08-2010 05:17 PM

^ thats what I was thinking. Even if he does end up taking a hit (a la Beasley trade doesn't work out) with no income tax, it would lessen the deficit.

Either way, this whole LeBron circus is ridiculous.

Circus is right....

Well, if its a given that LeBron is gonna be with the heat, is Eric Spoelstra still going to coach, or is Riles gonna pull a fast one again and become coach?

if that's true, then that's cool. But if I had a choice between New York, Chicago, Cleveland, or Miami for places to have an after party....I'm not booking rooms in Cleveland, even if I chose to go there. Just sayin....

WdnUlik2no 07-08-2010 06:24 PM

Earlier today, I was saying the Heat, but I have been watching ESPN since I've been home, and I really back to square one. Each team has its pluses, and no matter were he chooses there are going to be some pissed off people in New York and/or Cleveland. I don't think Miami or Chicago fans will be as hard on him as Cleveland or New York fans would be.

If he chooses anywhere but Cleveland, he won't be able to go back and live in the city until after he retires..if then.

SLushhYYY 07-08-2010 06:36 PM

Lol Lebron wont win a championship for anyone

JediMindTricks 07-08-2010 06:43 PM

can't believe how ridiculous the lebron watch has become.

that said, i'm watching....and i can't wait to find out! :boogie:

clpassenubye 07-08-2010 06:48 PM

Even with these 3 the Heat won't beat the Lakers they might not get past the Celtics.

Moog-Type-S 07-08-2010 06:48 PM

^^ I can wait. :yawn:

What pisses me off is, LJ is probably getting sooooo much money just for this stupid over hyped one hour announcement show

WdnUlik2no 07-08-2010 06:53 PM

^^^ I've heard he's donating the money to the Boys and Girls Club,

asianspec 07-08-2010 07:03 PM

yes, he is donating it there.

clpassenubye 07-08-2010 07:03 PM

If he leaves Cleveland he will be Public Enemy #1 in Ohio and I feel bad for them. Out of all his possible destinations Cleveland needs him the most for financial reasons the other places will go on like normal and not think twice.

JediMindTricks 07-08-2010 07:12 PM

though i agree, he doesn't owe cleveland or ohio anything. he already gave them 7 years.

clpassenubye 07-08-2010 07:31 PM

Well he's leaving them before his prime years in the NBA its hard to say it but I think he's still getting better.

JediMindTricks 07-08-2010 07:37 PM

agree.

but i don't blame him if he wants to spend his prime years elsewhere.

again, he owes cleveland nothing.

clpassenubye 07-08-2010 07:42 PM

Your right he owes Cleveland nothing and he's probably trying to mitigate overall the backlash and public perception by having this special and donating the money to the Boys and Girls Club of America .

JediMindTricks 07-08-2010 07:45 PM

probably.

it'd be hilarious if this was all a giant smokescreen and stays with cleveland.

S14 n Tsx 07-08-2010 07:46 PM

15 more min to find out...

is300eater 07-08-2010 07:54 PM

Fack, stuck in traffic :mad:

clpassenubye 07-08-2010 07:56 PM

5 minutes to LeDecision or at least the start of the show.

Doom878 07-08-2010 07:56 PM

I think Gibson works in legal. So maybe he helped with some of those contracts. :wink:
