Happy LeBron James Day!

Oh boy will this be a fun day!

People will speculate all day long and search for hidden clues that are not there and so on and so forth. It seems like the 4 options are New Jersey, Miami, Chicago, New York, and Cleveland. Eliminate New Jersey, Miami, and Chicago who at this point are seen by most as real outsiders, and you are left with New York and Chicago. Tonight at 9 PM, LeBron James will speak at a live press conference to be televised by ESPN. The world will stand still as LeBron James makes his announcement. Everyone wants to know who will be NBA champions in 2011 where LeBron James will play basketball next year.

Personally, I can't recall any player being so self-aggrandizing as to put such a decision on national television. Furthermore, this is not a one-way thing. Has a deal been agreed to? If so, how has someone not leaked this information? If not, then how can LeBron be so sure that His Decision will be final? Is it a secret agreement? Does LeBron just assume that the name of the team he says on ESPN tonight will be the team that caters to his every whim in the contract signing room? But for the sake of not complicating this and giving everyone a headache, let's assume that LeBron James and his agent have, at the very least, a verbal agreement in place with some team that miraculously has not been leaked over the internet.

LeBron James is making this national TV announcement in Greenwich, Connecticut, a city that is 30-some miles away from New York City. Which to me points to one thing and one thing only: LeBron is staying in Cleveland. LeBron is an attention loving, media whore. These are probably the best days of his lives. Yes, LeBron is an attention loving media whore, but a person who would go on National Television and essentially tell the part of the country he grew up in and spent virtually all of his life "you are not good enough for me anymore," is something that I just don't see happening.
