The fact that you have to make your own argument for LeBron shows his point was retarded

in fairness he didn't say he was a slave, but that NFL owners have a slave mentality. It's still an absurd thing to say but lets at least be accurate here.


So it would be more accurate for him to say “I have a slave mentality making millions off my shoes while poor Asian people sweat in factories for almost nothing at all”

Hey @KingJames you know who the real slaves are? The Asian people making your Nike shoes for twenty cents an hour.

He won’t have one for sure. But I can safely say he will keep cashing those Nike Slave infused checks during his lifetime 1Billion deal with them. No doubt. Blows my mind that kids would look up to this retard.

I honestly don’t even think Lebron believes what he says. I think the guy has an extreme desire to be liked in the “black community”. Like an obsessed chick who needs guys attention

So he says things that he knows will reel in the easiest of that group to please.

Nah, not really


It would be like a NASCAR driver constantly saying things to appease the simplest of his white fan base like sir Winston

“White males are persecuted like the old Christians in today’s society!!!”

Funny how quickly they dropped that story about the spray painted racial slur on the front of his story. No way that wasn’t fabricated at all....

And I do disagree with all the people saying LBJ is dumb. He know exactly what he’s doing and know his masses of low IQ followers will eat up whatever he spews while he sits back counting his millions.

I do find it interesting that people side with management the majority of the time


Is it really that interesting?

These guys are getting paid outrageous sums of money to play games their fans would all rather be playing than doing their actual jobs, and they act like entitled brats along the way. They are out of touch with the lives of their fans that create the revenue that supports them.

If the arrangement between the NFL (owners) and its players (employees) is similar to slavery, then how do you compare the entire private sector’s employer/employee dynamic?

The employees always make things go while the owners reap rewards for their efforts. In any industry, the best of the best will always make the company they work for more than they get paid. If employees don’t like it, the only thing they can do is start their own company.

LeBron is tone deaf and leads a privileged life.

But they argument used against the players is usually centered around the opinion that they make millions, so they shouldn't ever bitch about money. Completely ignoring the fact that the owners make billions.


It's just odd that in a millionaires vs billionaires money fight, most people default to the millionaires being greedy
yep

I don't know Lebron. About 1/3 of them seem kinda Jewish to me. Certainly, you're not disparaging the Jews, are you Lebron? You Holocaust denier!!
