LeBron and Grace?

"Under the table, LeBron's big-sneakered foot is underneath Maverick's. Their legs are touching, their expensive sneakers are canoodling. It is the ease of their friendship, of their closeness, that they don't even notice."

An innocuous line in Esquire's new feature (worth the time to read) about the aspiring Global Icon himself...or is it? To me, reading that line was like when Harvey Dent knew he had enough to slam the Chinese dude and all the mob bosses with a RICO indictment. As soon as I read that, I stopped the tape recorder. Gotcha 'Bron. It all made sense after that.

It now made sense that LeBron locked his so called "high school sweetheart" down when he can have any chick on the planet. Would a straight man choose this over this, or this? Let's be serious. Oh and if you think this post is another excuse to google image Megan Fox, well...

And not only did LBJ wife up the first chick to slob his knob, there are absolutely NO rumors of him cavorting with any tasties. The only suspicious relationship he has is with Jay-Z. This could be because Lebron and his crew are so concerned with his image that they cover up scandals better than Blair Waldorf if she were running for president while on the Real World. Possible. It could also be that LeBron simply doesn't cheat because he is devoted to his first and one true love. Please.

Speaking of his crew, it now also makes sense why LeBron would fire Aaron Goodwin, one of the top powerbrokers in the game, in favor of his "friend" who didn't even graduate from college. Maverick Carter is clearly LeBron's Svengali. To put it simply Berry Gordy:Diana Ross Maverick Carter:LeBron James. It is well hidden to be sure, but nobody is perfect. Hence the discovery of the footsie. Sure it may be subconscious, but that's just the power of pure lust. It surfaces no matter how hard you try to keep it under raps.

That repression explains the whole Global Icon thing. I'm pretty sure LeBron isn't compensating for a small member, but he has an almost pathological desire to be the biggest and greatest entity in the history of entities. Now we know the driving force behind that. And I admire that. Having an alternative lifestyle should not hinder an athlete or celebrity from being the GOAT.

Let's not get it twisted, I see nothing wrong with this. A spida does what a spida do. I'm just glad all the puzzle pieces fit together in my mind.

  1. You make some good points. However, in defense of Bron-Bron's heterosexuality, he may just be a very astute and committed businessman.

    Now, you're probably asking, what does being a savvy businessman have to do with any of this? Well, here's a quote from British billionaire Sir Alan Sugar: "If you want to be seriously rich, sort out your domestic life, so that you can concentrate on making money" (Esquire, May 2007). The implication is that a smart businessman doesn't have time to play the field because that time is better spent making bank. Sugar was married at 21 and a millionaire by his late twenties--maybe LeBron's got a similar methodology in mind.

    Or maybe he's just in the closet. Either way, he balls to the walls.
