LeBron thanks fans in Akron paper ad LeBron James is showing appreciation to his Ohio hometown fans with a full-page newspaper ad as he leaves to play basketball in Miami. James thanks Akron residents for their love and support in the ad in Tuesday's Akron Beacon Journal. He calls the city his home and the ''central focus'' of his life and says he will always come back. There's no mention of nearby Cleveland, where he played seven seasons for the Cavaliers. ************************************ He's got to have the absolute worst PR team in history...:icon_smile:
It took him this long to take out an ad...and after Keith Bulluck did the same for the Titans about a week after he signed with New York. Get real LeBron.
This comes across to me as more of a 'Screw You' than a 'Thank You', I know he didn't mean it that way but seriously...
LeBron finally thanks Cleveland fans LeBron James finally thanked his fans in Cleveland on Saturday, making his first public appearance since he left the Cavaliers for the Miami Heat. ''To the city of Cleveland, my fans in Cleveland, my fans in northeast Ohio,'' said James, ''I want to say thank you for the last seven years and the years that continue to go in the future.'' Then he repeated the thank you to Cleveland a second time, as if for extra emphasis. ''So I want to thank the city of Cleveland, also northeast Ohio, for all the great years that I've had,'' he said. ********************************************************** :icon_smile: Old news, James. You can't unring the bell. Just let it die a natural death.
