...until now. Never disliked him, never was a huge fan but think he's fun to watch.
Well... now he sucks.
As I type he's at Jacob's Field, wearing a Yankees hat. What a bitch. Turns out he roots for...wait for it...the Yankees, the Cowboys, and Michael Jordan's Bulls. He got called out as a "front runner" and that's exactly right.
How the hell do you grow up AND play pro ball in the Cleveland area and not root for the teams there? What's worse...how do you pick the fucking Yankees & Cowboys????

Looks like the Cleveland offense didn't appreciate his headwear...

I've had a problem with him ever since he played an exhibition game here a few years ago (before his rookie season, I might add) and told a little kid to fuck off when he asked for an autograph.

It was enough to make Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James, a lifelong New York fan, spin his Yankees cap around backwards and leave Jacobs Field early.

I always felt like your team is your team, even if you leave town. I guess that applies even if your an athlete in another town. He SHOULD turn out for his Yankees. He should also be prepared to get heckled throughout the entire game. That's sports!

Exactly.
I also didn't understand why people really got pissed when that picture of Tom Brady wearing a Yankees hat was published. I'd rather see you root for your own team evan if it's my rival than fake support the home team.

People just get pissed because the Yankees are godless infidels. IMHO no one should ever wear a Yankees hat, EVER.

No it's not. Like he said when the dude called him a frontrunner, its been awhile since the Bulls, Cowboys or Yankees won anything. If we were a frontrunner he'd be a Colts, Spurs, and Cardinal fan

were you that little kid?
Yeah, you caught me, Tubbs.
No, of course I fucking wasn't. But I do know first-hand that Lebron's a cunt. Or at least he was that day.

Yes, but how do you become a fan of the Yankees Cowboys and Jordan Bulls growing up in Ohio?
If you're going to be a front runner you might as well carry it through and just be a front runner. The Yankees have become the Pittsburg Pirates in the post season.
It doesn't really amout to much though in the end. It's not a big deal.

yeah but when he decided to become fans of those teams as a kid they were all winning titles left and right. maybe he's stuck with them since then but he should have never been a fan of those teams in the first place.
