All I Want To Know Is...

..the chick in the blue bikini in the LMFAO video (said unofficial LBJ theme song), in the most Biblical of ways.

Look, I’m 25-35yo, and I have ultra double serious FU money, what do you think I’m going to do?

I can see ESPN’s POV on this, but like, who cares. Any of this really surprise anyone?

if i was as rich as lebron i would have super awesome squirt gun fights with my two best friends

the squirt guns would be full of moet and after words we would have sex with very expensive hookers.

The controversy isn’t the article itself, it’s the fact that ESPN pulled it. Yeah, rich guys have crazy ass parties that I couldn’t even imagine in my mind grapes, but why pull the article and claim it was a rough draft and a mistake that it was posted in the first place? ESPN comes out looking worse than LeBron, like they’re on his payroll.

by garrettelliott on Jul 29, 2010 9:15 AM EDT reply actions  

Yup, I had not even heard of the article until it was pulled

then I saw it everywhere. Sure the party was outlandish (to a poor chick in a third world country) but not something I’m surprised a young millionaire is involved in.

Where in the world is Trent Plaisted?

Wow, that was suprisingly lame

I thought this party was going to be like Patrick Ewing in Atlanta meets Eyes Wide Shut, but instead, it wasn’t far off from what a sixteen year old girl who spends a lot of time watching MTV wants her birthday party to be like. Seriously, they’re pulling that WHY?

by Biz Markie Moon on Jul 29, 2010 4:10 PM EDT up reply actions  

Why?

Because LeBron’s supersized ego finally found its way into print. Usually, we just get a taste of it. This article cements JaBron as a f-ing pussy. Shooting fake shots and dribbling while walking thru a casino?!

by MwestBaller on Jul 30, 2010 12:32 PM EDT up reply actions  

Because if a story is getting pulled, there better see some unseemly shit going on, not an edited episode of Entourage. The way I see it, that just shows that ESPN is all over Lebron’s jock to the point that they don’t want to alienate anyone from the guy, who they’ve already proved as an enormous asshole with “The Decision”. Now, it’s damage control. I think the ESPN demography split is casual sports fans/somewhat serious sports fans. Somewhat serious sports fans are going to probably dislike Lebron for what he did to Cleveland, but casual sports fans are going to like him because, hey, he’s the best. That is, until they hear he’s partying or whatever, at which point they may alienate those causal fans, who, because they accept whatever ESPN tells them, say, “Oh Jesus! Has anything changed since Latrell Sprewell and Zach Randolph? I’m not watching these egomaniacal assholes!” and then proceed to watch with bated breath as Alex Rodrieguez may hit that 600th home-run.

Of course, there has to be casual fans, but I’m saying that the NBA ALWAYS gets the short end of the stick with the casual fans.The NBA seems to almost lend itself to fanaticism more easily than the other sports.

At this pace...

LBJ will be rivaling our boy DeMarcus for the most controversial NBA player alive!

by brgulker on Jul 29, 2010 12:10 PM EDT reply actions  

Pff

DeMarcus is the controversial chosen one

Where in the world is Trent Plaisted?

by Kriz on Jul 29, 2010 5:05 PM EDT up reply actions  

the latest controversy I heard

is something about him and LBJ’s father…

by Mike Payne on Jul 29, 2010 5:10 PM EDT up reply actions  

LBJ at his most controversial couldn't rival Demarcus on his way to church with his grandma

And you can be pretty sure that if a journalist hangs out with DMC when he signs his MAX contract in a few years there will be some real controversy. The article will probably sound like a cross between a Hunter S Thompson Novel and what it must of felt like to be Ethan Hawke in Training Day.

by tads on Jul 29, 2010 7:12 PM EDT up reply actions  

“Everything past that was fuzzy, but I’m pretty sure I watched Demarcus Cousin turn into a flaming eagle of death with an aura made of molasses and tear off the balls of Ekpe Udoh. Then he had sex with Eva Mendes, but at that point, I just wanted a glass of water.”

Especially considering Big Baby is this guy.

by garrettelliott on Jul 29, 2010 11:25 PM EDT up reply actions  

I imagine he chuckled to himself and said, “Oh Lebron, you so crazy.” And then did a finger wag.

by Biz Markie Moon on Jul 30, 2010 12:41 AM EDT up reply actions  

Biggest Douche...

in the universe! The confirms, unequivocally all those things we’ve all suspected all along.

But I still can’t get over the guy shooting fake jumpers and layups while walking through the casino. Is he worried no one is going to recognize him? WHO THE FUCK ELSE HAS A CHIN THAT BIG?

I Can't Wait For Don Ohlmeyer To Weigh In

For those who don’t remember, he is probably the greatest TV sports producer of all time, been in the biz over 50 years, produced WWOS. He is currently ESPN’s Ombudsman, was was highly critical of the network in it’s decision to air The Decision (http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/columns/story?columnist=ohlmeyer_don&id=5397113).

I have the feeling he will have something to say about this eventually, and it won’t be complimentary…but you never know.

by V. on Jul 31, 2010 9:17 PM EDT reply actions  

Wow, somehow I missed that article. Thanks for sharing. Very good read.

All this tells me is one thing...if and when a Mormon NBA superstar comes along...

I’ll look forward to seeing the women in his entourage.

But really though, I want to see an NBA superstar come along who really cares about more than parties and hoes not wearing underwear and instead spend their free time planting trees and helping the homeless.

Fuck this guy.
