Basketbawful: Take the Lebron Challenge

Are you F'in kidding me???

OMG...this is why I despise 90% of the human population.

Idiocracy is a reality yet to be realized.

To be fair, Tay, billups, rip all have fans who post stuff like that.

LeBron is keeping this couple from getting hitched. Somebody better tell the family values crowd that traditional marriage is once again coming under attack. We must outlaw LeBron before we are all witnesses to the end of modern civilization.

On a variation of that.

TNT is famous for those Lebran or Kobe vs whoever matchups.

Notice how their broadcasts are setup for low attention span people? Talking about all the cut-aways and in-game courtside interviews. They never go for more than 7 or 8 mins of game time without feeling the need to entertain us in other ways.

He may need to get hitched himself. I heard some broadcaster ragging on him last week that his girlfriend was expecting again....not that it makes that much difference these days

I don't know. Seems like the NBA marketting campaign has been getting away from the real fans lately, catering to those who know nothing about the sport other than watching Lebran and Flash score 50.

So this is what you get.

I can't stand the "Bonus Coverage" crap, where they leave the game you're watching and go to some other game. Um, I hate to break it to you, but it's only "Bonus" if it's in ADDITION to the game you're watching, not instead of it. They should call it "Replacement Coverage".

I know they try to do it to keep the attention of the "casual" fan when the game is boring, but if I'm watching the game, it's because I want to watch THAT game. I don't watch it in hopes that they'll cut to some "Bonus Coverage" of a game I'm not watching. I don't get to watch many games as it is, at least let me watch the games that I'm watching!

LeBron has an intelligent fan after all. Or maybe it is someone who is a fan of who Lebron could be.
