You have to chase the money. The world is a cruel cruel place. You have to get yours while it is hot. Shame but it is true.

Oh for sure he's choosing the money, as he should. He's been in the league for a long time without getting the big bucks, and I don't blame him at all for picking the cash.

If you like Lebron sure do w.e you want. But he was almost out of baseball just two years ago. Had to come back for insurance. Just what I heard on the game cast. So he should go get that money.

Legit he came back because his wife was pregnant and he needed the insurance for newborn healthcare. Speaks to other issues we have going on as a country, but it makes sense on his end.

Eh I think it's pretty decent. We have issues but I still believe in America as an institution and the ability we have as citizens to turn things around once we're in a bad spot. We've done it before and we can do it again.

In the words of Daniel Tosh, “being a true patriot is recognizing that America sucks but every other place is about 1000 times worse”
