Lebron James Is Now Rooting for a Real Winner

Lebron James has no love for the Tribe, or his city apparently. (SawxBlog Illustration)

Last week during the ALDS Lebron James was seen wearing a Yankee hat in Jacobs Field which helped cause a minor panic for Cleveland sports fans. Us being Boston fans can semi-relate to this type of action because of what a Mr. Tom Brady did with his beau back in May. Tom tried to play it off as nothing, saying he just threw on a hat, but man....that sure is a scary sight.

I think Boston fans tried their best to block out the awful sight from their memory, however he was at least in New York. I mean, if Tommy Touchdown tried to pull off some shite like that in Fenway Park during a Yankee playoff series he may not make it out looking so pretty. Talk about no class on Lebron's part.

Either way, Lebron wearing the Yankee hat in Jacobs Field just wasn't a cool move on his part. I mean this guy is from Akron, OH, and apparently he's also a Cowboys fan. Talk about a front runner...I bet you cheered when Jordan hit that shot over Craig Ehlo and the Cavs because he was a Bulls fan. Well, at least King James is wearing the right hat now, right?

I enjoy the blog by the by.

I don't understand Lebron rooting against Cleveland, but I dont like people just rooting for the winningest team at the time. That's a Yankees fan as far as I'm concerned (even if we are the new Yankees, MUAHAHAH)

Again if winning mean being like the Yankees then cool, I'm all for it.

However we have an owner who's MUCH different then the Yanks, and also one of the smartest and most progressive front offices in baseball.

The only reason the Red Sox have to spend so much $$$ is because they're in the same division as the Yankees, it's basically an arms race a la the Cold War.

The Red Sox spend a ton, no denying that, but there's also no denying the below:

2007 Yankees Payroll = $ 189,639,045
2007 Red Sox Payroll = $ 143,026,214

That's a difference of $46,612,831 or more money then the payrolls of four MLB teams. The Red Sox may look evil in others eyes, but they have to spend to compete with the Yanks, and even if they are evil, they'll never be as evil as the Yanks!

If you have to rely on Tim Wakefield to save you ...well you can get your Celtics and Bruins garb on because its see you next year again.
There are 3 major flops on this team:
1. JD Drew 14 mill/year
You know people blast the Yankees for stupid moves and money wasted...I give you exhibit A - the worst signing (next to Matt Clement) in their history.
2. Dice-K 15 mill/year ...what people don't realize is that he faced maybe 3 MLB-hitters in each Japanese line-up....not 9.
Two things have happenend to this guy:
a. The hitters have his number after seeing him a few times now.
b. He has little confidence out there and its obvious to all.
3. Julio Lugo 10 mill/year...Where is Orlando Cabrera when you need him? His OBP all season has been pathetic and he was supposed to be the ideal lead-off guy?

These 3 buffoons were the key signings by Wonder Boy Theo to help bring this team to the World Series.
If anything thet were a major obstacle to overcome.
I guess Francona was under pressure to play them....I say he has no backbone for playing them and it has cost them and the fans big-time.

Bottom line Wonder Boy is Blunder Boy. Most of the big signings since he took over have been failures.
You can start there with your shake-up.

Its deja vu all over again and again and gain....wait till next year.
