*than*

I'm in Cleveland right now and the attitudes of those who I thought were true fans are utterly pathetic. I feel like I have to buy a Shepard costume to heard all the sheep running around. People that I know personally that burned LeBron jerseys and talked all this shit about him when he quit and left, and then laughed when Heat lost to the Mavs have done a complete 180 and are falling in line like little sheep just dying to go to their first Cavs game and wear their LeBron jersey.

One guy even said "LeBron is all this city has"

What a joke!

It's so funny watching the beta mentality take full grip.

If Cavs didn't get #1 pick, Bron would not be coming back home.

Lol @ Dan Gilbert for having a backbone made of glass. While still in Ohio, I live closer to Indianapolis than Cleveland now so it's time to be a fan and support a team that doesn't cater to quitters.

I'd rather jump ship that fall in line like a sheep.

Well they are desperate for a championship. It's been so long for them. They haven't won anything since 1964 and that was an NFL title.

I feel like I know the feeling, but I don't. Even the Marlins who always seem to suck has won two WS titles in my life time. It may not be everything, but Cleveland is desperate for one.

I'm a native Clevelander, so I'm well aware of all. I wanted nothing more for Cleveland to win a championship but if they do it in this fashion it has asterisks all over it.

I don't care how desperate my fellow Cleveland brethren are, it looks pathetic. It embarrasses me. You would think that in America pride should always trump back stabbing.

How soon we forget. :facepalm

Combine that with all the bandwagon fans, yikes.... the one bright side of LeBron leaving Miami.

I'm quitting on them because the owner and front office took actions that I don't agree with and just simply cannot support.

And DeSaba, for what it's worth I've always been a Miami Dolfins fan as a kid growing up in Cleveland. I just liked Dan Marino and Don Shula. And the Dolfins haven't as you know done shit since 72-73. I don't conform to bandwaggon bullshit.

While everyone had their Browns winter starter coats I had my Dolfins.

I'm still a die hard Indian's fan though even if they trade away all their talent to the yankees but if I see one damn cavs bron jersey being worn at an Indians game by someone, I'll tell them to take that shit off and put on a wiggins or kyrie jersey.

Well we haven't won a SB since the 73' season, but I say we haven't done shit since 2000. Yah we weren't winning SBs, but we had a very high win percentage that I believe was the highest since the NFL merger. We at least used to make the playoffs every year, something many take for granted, and we've been to 5 SBs (lol 2/5). As much as I enjoy good basketball, I'm desperate for some good football. Football means much more to me.

Thanks. LeBron hurt, but I've always really liked Bosh and it would have killed me if he left too.

Bosh isn't a quitter, so I wouldn't expect anything less of him.

OP is the poster child for people who take sports too seriously. Sports were made by kings to take common people's mind off their shitty life.
Now a days, it does that plus it makes a lot of money for rich people.

And what are you? The poster child who makes gimmick accounts to poke fun at athletes misfortunes such as Rose's ACL injury? You could have just made your name as Rose-xxxx or something to that effect but no, you had to show your true intelligence level with your ever so creative screen name.

Don't like people making money off sports and getting rich? Then do something about it instead of whining on a basketball message board about it. :lol

Treat sports as entertainment. I don't hate any athlete or movie star as much as OP hates lebron unless they commit a crime. Even then I don't make multiple threads about them on internet.

I don't mind people getting rich because coz of sports. I don't make fun of rose at all. BUlls fans here can tell u that. My username is making fun of how big of an issue some people made of his injury and whether he should return or not.
I treat sports like entertainment which they are.

Maybe instead of allowing me to live in your mind rent free, you should simply not click on my threads then?

This Miami Dolphins fan who grew up in Cleveland, Ohio during the Marino era is complaining about bandwagon fans. Unbelievable.
