LeBron James coming home to join the Cleveland Cavaliers
July 11, 2014First of many LeBron James billboards hits Cleveland
July 11, 2014Obviously there are too many reactions to count, but I just feel like this is an event that needs to be covered. I really can’t stand when Tweets are taken and plastered out of context to make news, but this is all about happiness and celebration, so I think it’s pretty fitting.
First up is Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert…
Welcome Home @kingjames. I am excited for the fans and people of Cleveland and Ohio. No fans and people deserve a winner more than them…..

My 8-year-old: "Daddy, does this mean I can finally wear my Lebron jersey, again?"…Yes it does, son. Yes it does!

LeBron's essay is remarkable. Going forward this will be known as "The Letter."

Next up is Chris Sheridan who withstood virtual missiles as this story unfolded (or didn’t unfold.)
Thanks for kind words folks. Just doing my job. Wouldn't have reported it as done deal unless I was absolutely certain, which I was.

This doesn’t even remotely cover the waterfront, but I was just so damn happy that I wanted to make sure the love was captured on our pages.
