LEBRON TO CLEVELAND! (OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED)

I love it.  As I've stated a million times, no player exceeds my fandom for my home teams.  My home teams come first no matter what...  If anyone or any team interferes with our success, then F THEM.  So, a part of me is really happy because it breaks up the Big 3, and even the years we sucked, I just had a hard time pulling for them to win it because of the circumstances surrounding that team...  And I was a fan of each of the big three as individual players, but them playing together, and then us, as a franchise, subsequently getting the poo beat out of us for the last four years because of their combined star power pissed me off.

 

I'm glad they're breaking up and going their separate ways.  It's good for our franchise, and as I've said elsewhere, if we can't win it all, I can definitely pull for LeBron to do it, WITH LESS STAR POWER AND GLAMOUR, in his homestate of Ohio.

Cleveland is not a state.

Wonder what Wade does? Does he go back to Miami with a depleted team or go to the Bulls/who ever else lost out on the Melo/LeBron sweepstakes 

 

He'd cost too much and he's on the wrong side of his career but he'd be a good mentor for PJ

Good catch Chaos.  I was in the middle of talking to someone at work as I typed that.  LOL.  College is paying off. 

 

I have a feeling your post calling me out will mysteriously disappear after a brief edit.

I think D-Wade to the Bulls is a great idea, gets him close to home as well.  Bosh being the native Texan would make for a homecoming trifecta if he chooses Houston.  Deplete the Heat and the fuging Southeast division can be OURS!!1!!!

Sheridan is throwing up speculation as fact to get hits to his website and look like a genius if the story breaks that way.

 

If only LeBron scheduled a specific time and place where he would make his announcement. Maybe put it on television because alot of people are curious...

    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
