Did anyone else hear Dan Lebetard dad go in on the Cavs and Cleveland?

[Kblaze8855]

Ive been searching for ten minutes for it. Heard it on my way home.

That was one of the most vicious rants ive ever heard.

That was personal....

Some Def Comedy Jam shit. If anyone comes on a link please post id. Id rep for it if I could.

[L.Kizzle]

Note on what he said?

[navy]

Are you sure it wasnt sarcastic?

[ArbitraryWater]

I was confused because people on twitter were talking about lebatard's dad "papi".. lol I wanna see it now.

[Kblaze8855]

I couldnt do it justice. He went down the line. Lebron...Love...Wade having one more ring and two more balls than Lebron...Ray Allen keeping Lebron from being 1-4...Clevelands wikipedia having a tourism section for no reason...it was brutal. Hardest ive laughed in a while.

As a guy said on twitter a moment ago:



Papi LeBatard is a savage.....

[PJR]

It was absolutely glorious. :oldlol:

[navy]

Give it to me again!

Im sure it will be on youtube like the others. :oldlol:

Damn, homie must read ISH.

[Kblaze8855]

It was. I cant overstate how ridiculous that rant was. Im sure someone is rushing to upload it. The show is still on ESPN radio now. Im guessing its on a podcast or something when its over.

[Budadiiii]

Can't wait to hear this.

Will be refreshing to hear the unadulterated truth from someone at ESPN.

He pulled out the Ray Allen shot on him. Papi is a very smart guy. Very sharp for his age.

[PJR]

"Kevin Love, I haven't seen that many bricks in Miami since Scareface!!!" :lol

[HOoopCityJones]

Can't find it anywhere.


I'm sure ESPN is holding it back for as long as they can.

Hilarious. I really hope we get a Heat/Cavs series :roll:

[SamuraiSWISH]

Waiting on link. Why are these 2x dudes so salty? He only played their 3.5 seasons. The rest of his career was spent in Cleveland. In the overall scheme things, his stint in Miami will be a blip on the radar screen. Especially if he manages to bring his hometown to the glory.

Considering there's a better chance then not those will be his only titles, I seriously find that hard to believe

So what you're saying is Miami never happened and LeBron is still ringless?

3 Cleveland vs 6 Miami

I can already see it.

Miami takes it in 6.

It's not salty, it's tradition. I dont think anyone takes them seriously. :lol

Dude he took out a billboard in Akron. The guy is possibly more salty than even the guy who wrote the "Whore of Cleveland" book. That guy had actual attachment to Bron being a fellow hometown area resident, and offspring. Rooted for him for 7 seasons, and watched him go from HS kid to grown man.

LeBatard and his creepy father developed some weird fascination with LeBron. Anyone from Miami being upset LeBron went back to Cleveland makes little sense given the circumstances of how he even got to Miami.

It was a joke. Go check his twitter or some of his other rants. Never takes himself too seriously.

All humor derives from truth. If you don't feel there is a strong element of those actual sentiments, then the joke is actually on you.

Yea, they may not be that literally crazy about it. But the butthurt with them is real. In an interview with fellow Miami product, Dwyane the Rock Johnson, they were trying to coerce him with leading questions into being just as incensed about LeBron's depature. And he didn't jive with it at all.

Wtf? :biggums:

How tho? Putting aside the fact that we're approaching the mid point of the season and The Cavs are still no where near being a championship contender despite their misleading seeding out East, but Lebron went to four straight Finals in Miami an had some of his best statistical seasons there as well. How is that a blip? It's like saying Shaq's LA days were nothing compared to Orlando.

If anything Lebron will regret this move in the long run.

Shaq was in LA in '97, '98, '99, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, and 2004. That's 7.5 seasons. 4x more than LeBron spent in Miami. That's WAY more basketball.

I'm talking about his time spent there. His best statistical seasons are still in Cleveland. 2006, 2008, and especially 2009 and 2010. He has 2x MVPs in Cleveland as well. Sure he won 2 rings in 4 seasons. But that small time he spent there in Miami will be dwarfed by the amount of time he played in a Cleveland uniform.

I didn't say anyone wouldn't forget his 2x MVPs, 2x Rings, and 2x Finals MVPs there.

How are you going to say it was a dumb move by LeBron to go back to Cleveland? It actually was a no brainer. He instantly became a beloved sports figure again. No longer a villain with HUGE expectations in Miami.

He may never win a ring again, but going back to Cleveland was a total legacy move. That franchises greatest player, who hails from the area. As for basketball reasons, Miami's top talent is aging ... and not particularly well. The last 2 seasons in Miami they seemed about as dependant on LeBron as Cleveland did before. He goes back to Cleveland that has young talent on the upswing. And whose to say they ultimately won't be competing for a championship?

Like you said, they play in a joke of a conference. And visually, it definitely seems like Bron is saving his energy for the post season. That's the only way I can rationalize the large stretches of not caring, or playing lazy defense which hasn't been typical of him since 2007. The Cavs will be fine. If you don't think that they can get by the teams currently seeded better than them ... you're crazy.

Anyone except the Bulls, yup call me crazy.

Hell, I could see WSH and Miami spanking that ass too. If Bosh and Wade play outta their minds.

"Rebounding juggernaut Kevin Love only had 5 rebounds last night...multiply that by 4 and you get the number of Browns starting Quarterbacks since 1999"

"What do Halle Berry, Arsenio Hall, the Browns and LeBron have in common? They all had to leave Cleveland to achieve success AHHHAHHHAAAHHAA"

[Kblaze8855]

Most of it is perfectly clear. But I suppose people with an accent are easy targets.

Really ive always been impressed by anyone who can speak more than one language. Im sure hes better at English than I am at Spanish.

He didnt say a thing I didnt understand at first listen.

Easy targets? I'm not sure what to make of that. My grandmother has a thick English accent and I have no problem understanding her. The bigger problem was his rapid pace in running through whatever script he was reading off of, combined with the natural audio obstructions that will exist when you are talking on the phone, which is then being broadcast on the radio... and then whatever is lost in the recording process.

It was legitimately difficult to understand what he was saying. What I did hear didn't seem all that original or interesting, though. But hey... I think sports talk radio is awful in general, be it in Miami, Cleveland or anywhere else. Filling airtime is difficult and it is obvious most of the time. LeBetard in particular really annoys me with his laughing for some reason. It's like nails on a chalkboard for me.

But, if you guys enjoyed it... *cheers*

Dan and his father are going to be salty about LBJ leaving for the rest of his career

Dude he took out a billboard in Akron. The guy is possibly more salty than even the guy who wrote the "Whore of Cleveland" book. That guy had actual attachment to Bron being a fellow hometown area resident, and offspring. Rooted for him for 7 seasons, and watched him go from HS kid to grown man.

They shouldn't be so salty, they're fortunate he made Miami relevant and got them two chips and 4 NBA Finals trips. Had LBJ been smart and chose to go to his best option back in 2010 and chose Chicago, with that FC, he'd most likely be working on getting his fourth title right now.

[BasedTom]

"They're so salty"

So do you guys just have no concept of banter? I notice that it's usually people from the heartland and middle of america that get extremely flustered or assume that any light jabs and jokes are a serious attack on someone's character.

considering the show was a repeat, i doubt it

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Other than that phrase he kept repeating throughout the rant (which I think was in Spanish?), I thought it was surprisingly clear. Particularly with English being the father's second language.

This coming from someone who simply cannot understand anything Austin Carr says. So I definitely wouldn't be able to transcribe through most accents.

[CJ Mustard]

:oldlol: Hilarious. I always enjoy the Lebatard rants. Wasn't difficult to understand either, no idea what people are talking about with that.

It's funny how people get salty every single time they do a rant. That's exactly why they do it, to troll people who take their sports teams/favorite players too seriously.
