James was announced Thursday as The Associated Press' 2013 Male Athlete of the Year, becoming the third basketball player to capture the award that has been annually awarded since 1931. James received 31 of 96 votes cast in a poll of news organizations, beating Peyton Manning (20) and Jimmie Johnson (7).

"I'm chasing something and it's bigger than me as a basketball player," James told the AP. "I believe my calling is much higher than being a basketball player. I can inspire people. Youth is huge to me. If I can get kids to look at me as a role model, as a leader, a superhero ... those things mean so much, and that's what I think I was built for. I was put here for this lovely game of basketball, but I don't think this is the biggest role that I'm going to have."

Past winners include Joe Louis, Jesse Owens, Muhammad Ali, Carl Lewis, Joe Montana, Tiger Woods and Michael Phelps. Serena Williams was the AP Female Athlete of the Year, announced Wednesday.

James joins Michael Jordan and Larry Bird as NBA players to win the award.

I've been a life long LeBron fan. Player that got me into the NBA and grew up as my idol. But after watching this series I can't root for this mental midget anymore. 2011 was a nightmare for me but I put up with it. This is sickening. Its worse because he is no doubt the best player in the league by a mile but he can't get it done. Once the big lights come on, he shrinks. He has the mentality of a retarded baby. Win or lose Im done with this clown.

TLDR: LeBron is a bitch and Im done. And yes I am mad.

what he actually taught kids was that you have to control your own destiny instead of depending on others (in this case, the Cav's front office) to make your destiny for you.

he took his destiny in his own hands and carved his own path. and now he has 2 rings.

he also taught kids that winning is everything and you must do everything, yes, even stack things in your favor to win.

i think those are admirable lessons that will help kids in life.

losers like you however are stuck in loserville because of your twisted ideals about depending on others to create your destiny, about hopeless loyalty, or inverted sense of being cheated...

when it went down, i thought just like you did. i mean, Kobe, rape someone? he can get any women he likes, why rape her? but then, he goes and pays the bitch to settle, and i'm like, "wtf? why is he settling if he's innocent? why doesn't he want to clear his name and fight this in court?"

and then i thought, some guys still rapes women even if they can easily get them. it all depends on the circumstances you know?

imo, it was Kobe in a heated rush, like he and the girl were making out, and he's already all hot and raring to put it in but the girl changed her mind or maybe said wait, but Kobe wasn't hearing any of it and just stuck it in and ignored her pleas. still qualifies as rape tho.

you think an egotistic, self-righteous bastard like Kobe will allow someone to taint his reputation if he was actually innocent? damn hell, someone like Kobe won't let a bitch like that get away with calling him a rapist and settle. he'd fight her in court and give her the business.

but he didn't and so he has this hanging over his head all his life.

You embody mediocrity, I see "I<3NBA" bumped a thread ...

That's what you are. Everybody subconsciously puts you on ignore because no one cares what you have to say, and never will.

You don't entertain anyone here, nor do you have any actual insight, you post cheap one liners about why LeBron is better than Kobe and other random *I dont remember the shit you post because you're not a memorable poster/irrelevant* type stuff.

No one knows you dude. lol. I don't think anyone really cares about your opinion on this subject nor do they care about your response to this. Dude, you don't ****ing matter here, lol. You can't talk about things as if anyone is taking notice, because nobody is taking notice. Again, they subconsciously put you on ignore.

but he didn't and so he has this hanging over his head all his life.

Pretty sure he settled it out of court because a trial takes a long process, something he wouldn't wanna put his family through and his season of playing ball through...Even if by the end he got proved innocent it still would have impact because the case most likely would have took up to a year + to complete.....I'd rather pay 900,000$ dollars to a lyin hoe (who already had other dry spunk in her clothes) to just leave me alone and put it past me, then a long drawn out case wit a b!tch lyin and my wife sittin in the crowd going thru a long trial process.

Let's just get real, objectively, we both know the chick screamed rape because she wanted bread, she got it...Just like we both know if this happened to LeBron you and ur legion of Bron stans and Kobe haters would actually realize b!tches do these kind of things for money...But because It's Kobe, you and da haters try hard to yell out "He raped her" even though he wasn't convicted, and you weren't there.

If she knew she was raped and wanted a rapist convicted, she should have denied the settlement and got him arrested, but ofcource she wouldn't do that, cause she never was raped, just f*cked really good.

Even though I troll LeBron, if this happened to him, I'd still keep logic and realize he's innocent, because I'm not a legally retarded kid like you guys. Just keep it a hunned, this happens to Bron, you'd be spittin the same facts I am.

At the end of the day, it doesn't matter nor effect me...The fact that only Kobe haters seem to bring up something that happened a decade ago tells me wat you morons are trying to do. I know, you and ur fellow Red bar trolls only post these things to get reaction and I gave it to you, but only because I'm trying to teach you kids to troll logically and not be viewed as a joke waste of space.

this makes sense but let's be real about it. with Kobe's personality, he wasn't going to let a lying bitch taint his rep. come on! you of all ppl should understand Kobe's psyche. he's not a beta. he's not some guy that would drop his head and accept defeat. he's a guy that would go to hell if that's what it would take to win. he doesn't care about dead bodies lying around or his family getting hurt. he's a crazy, obsessive mfer when it comes to winning. and i'm sorry to say this, but settling and paying some lying bitch is not winning. you think Jordan would settle if he was innocent?


If she knew she was raped and wanted a rapist convicted, she should have denied the settlement and got him arrested, but ofcource she wouldn't do that, cause she never was raped, just f*cked really good.
the thing about this is, she might have just been convinced by her lawyer to take the money. all her lawyer has to tell her is "we can lose." in cases like these, lawyers always want to settle because they get the money.


At the end of the day, it doesn't matter nor effect me...The fact that only Kobe haters seem to bring up something that happened a decade ago tells me wat you morons are trying to do.

Sadly, I kind of agree with this.

I mean, Lebron is genetically blessed. He won the genetic lottery.

Either way, he has worked hard to get where he is at and had to overcome obstacles.

Give him the award. Glad he got it. But, like I said, it's not that inspiring considering his physical gifts.

Man hate it or love it but teaming up with Wade and Bosh here in Miami was the best thing he could've ever done. He's coveted now. Truly untouchable. He's a winner now, no more empty stats. He's finally living his life the way he prolly envisioned it when he was younger and not as a habitual loser like how Melo is prolly feeling right now..all frustrated and shit.

While I still think "teaming up" isn't the right way to go about it, I agree with you that he made the right move from a marketing perspective, his stock has skyrocketed in Miami.

Another undeserving award just like that Christmas MVP.
What kind of a role model is he? Teach kids that if you fail, then quit, and cheat to stack your odds?

In what universe is LeBron winning athlete of the year due to it being a weak year in sports? Are you insane?

He's the best of his generation. How is he not on their level? Straight up make an argument, for comedy sake if nothing else.

He's on the same level as Messi if not bigger, and Ronaldo is the David Beckham of this era, that's it. Bolt and Nadal are both nowhere near as celebrated as LeBron is even on the global stage, don't get yourself twisted.

LeBron James is one of the top 5 sports icons in the world today, he's the face of the NBA and has been for several years.

Messi is more dominant than LeBron is relative to his sport, both in terms of winning and stats.

Ronaldo is a generational talent. Won't even entertain that comment further.

Bolt isn't celebrated as much as LeBron? Bolt is much more famous and relevant than LeBron worldwide and there isn't even an argument to the contrary.

They're all the best of their sports so they're absolutely comparable, though.

Do you not see the irony of this post?

You're one of the least entertaining posters in history. Why, WHY on ****ing Earth would you attempt to jump in and take a shot at me? Are you being serious or satirical? And that's an honest question. I'm baffled right now.

Nothing against you but seriously dude, you don't really matter here. You don't have any predictions that came true or have posted anything that makes someone laugh. you don't post insightful info, nor do you regurgitate it correctly. All you do is post in Miami Heat game threads and post boring observations about the team and in random threads like this(usually having to do with LeBron) and take cheap shots at posters trying to make a name for yourself. It's pathetic dude.

I'll take this as a compliment since you took the time to write this for me

Are you saying Messi's ancestors were only having sex with other Italians this entire time and that he's pure blooded Italian?

Look, I'm not going to get into a giant lecture about the "racial" origins or history of race relations in Argentina or the Americas as a whole, but if you think the guy is not white, there is something seriously wrong with you.

I guess you'd find it hard to believe that there are still white people in America and Canada too huh? Believe it or not, it's not that out of the ordinary for white people to go out of their way to not mix with other people. You might even say there was sort of a culture of whites only mixing with their own kind. Crazy, huh?

I'm not interested in what some crazy right wing christian skinhead website has to say. They aren't an authority on human genetics.


Just admit you you were wrong. You thought that South Americans were all Mexicans or something and were completely oblivious that Argentina is a majority European-Ancestory country.

Why you think Spaniards and Portuguese people aren't white is beyond me though. I've literally never heard that before.

I don't think you're racist. The thought never even occurred to me. My point was only that you're unfamiliar with the demographics of a particular country. It has nothing to do with racism. Unless your a Scandinavian or something, in which case, Go fcuk yourself devil.
