Four on the floor...

1. Last word on LeBron! There seem to be two camps who now hate the (young) man -- those that hate him for bailing on Cleveland and those who hate him for that B.S. TV Show the other night. We side with the latter. You can't hate on the (young) man because he left the Cavs. He was not going to win an NBA title there with that present roster. Look around. The Celtics traded for Ray Allen and KG. The Lakers traded for Pau Gasol. What the hell did Cleveland do?!? Um. They traded for ... wait for it ... Mo Williams, Shaq and Antawn Jamison. Hell, LeBron couldn't even get Chris Bosh to do a sign and trade and join him on the Cavs. No free agents want to play in Cleveland. Ever. He took less money (much less...but it's all relative) to go to Miami. And now he's much closer to a title than he ever in Cleveland.

2. Now, onto The Effing Decision! Not sure where to start here. So many choices, and all of them pathetic, disgusting and stupid. (We hate the sport because the sport is stupid.) ESPN: Um, they lied to The World and said we would have LeBron's decision in the first 15 minutes. It wasn't until close to 30 minutes in. LeBron: We will say this. The (young) man is a well spoken individual. He would pass the Dinner Test. (As in, if he was a nobody and Your Kid brought him home for dinner, you would be OK with it.) But he has his Cru (Thick) running the show. That means they agree with everything he says and thinks. Would Drew Rosenhaus, David Faulk (MJ's agent) or Scott Boras have allowed LeBron to do his TV Thing the other night?!? Um, no. It reeked of self promotion. (Right down to The King having the sports drink that he endorses right next to him. A drink, by the way, that we tried once and found to be putrid.) But wait -- he did it so the Boy and Girls Clubs could make money. (They reportedly netted over 2 mill.) If James was so worried about helping the Boys & Girls, why didn't he just make a sizable donation. (Is anyone in his Cru smart enough to know what a tax write-off is?!?) Jim Gray: Wow. He took nearly as big a hit as LeBron did. Prior to this he was best known for putting a gun to Pete Rose's head on national TV and demanding over and over again that #14 admit he gambled on baseball. Few people in the media have ever showed the stones Gray did that night with Peter Edward. Now, he's just another media whore. LeBron's hand picked crony. There were no Rose-esque questions. Not one. And now it's come out that Gray WAS PAID BY LEBRON'S PEOPLE TO CONDUCT THE INTERVIEW!!! Never again will anyone be able to take anything Jim Gray says at face value.

3. Finally, onto the Phillies! Two huge, improbable wins against the Reds. And if Halladay and Hamels close out the first half with Ws, we'll be in good shape. Ironic that as Cliff Lee was traded (yet again) for some top talent, the Phillies were on the outside looking in because they have no top prospects not named Dom Brown. Junior Amaro looks like an idiot for: Getting three pieces of CRAP in return for Lee. For giving Jamie Moyer a $12 million dollar deal, which meant they could not afford to keep Lee. And for giving Raul Ibanez a three year deal, which means they will lose Jayson Werth to free agency this winter.

4. Speaking of Werth -- he is a piece of sheeet! Seen the video of the fan at The Bank who caught the foul ball and then got majorly cursed out by Werth to the point where his son was downright scared?!? If that had been The Playmaker's Sister or The Playmaker, we would have gone ballistic on Werth. We would have spewed the Eff Bomb right back at him. Then we would have filed a complaint with the Phillies. Then we would have contracted every media outlet who would listen to us and told them what a piece of sheeet Jayson Werth is.
