    He's a great young basketball player, and he genuinely seems like a nice guy. But he's an idiot.

    Not too many people really care that he's a Yankees fan. The whole problem is that as a representative of a city (Cleveland, obviously) you don't come out in the national media and proclaim yourself a fan of another team. Especially a team that is so hated in this area. He's just not a very smart guy.

    Bob Feller, on the other hand, rocks.

    I think Kobe did the same thing in LA a few years ago when the Yankees played the Dodgers in interleague at Dodger Stadium.

    Big deal. He has the right to be a fan of whoever he wants to be. Lebron doesn't play Baseball, who the hell cares which team he likes?

    Now if Lebron said "I love the Knicks!" as he was playing against them. Well, then perhaps fans have the right to bitch.

    Who cares who he pulls for in the MLB... just as long as he helps bring home Gold in the '08 Olympics!

    Mark Buerhle wears a Cardinals cap all the time and he pitches for the White Sox, go figure.
