    Default LeBron named AP Athlete of the Year

    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.

    Of course. The media loved him ever since he was 14 and has been handing him everything on a silver platter since then.

    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?

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.
