Out of the Blue

Well LeBron went where expected, leaving a lot of unhappy fans in all the places he did not choose. I find the way this all played out fascinating, as it seemed like the whole run-up and TV special were to protect his "brand," but I think that, regardless of intent, it had the opposite effect, and he has harmed his image pretty badly. Of course lesser players have redeemed themselves with the public after worse offenses, so I doubt it's irreparable.

I don't think it hurt everything Blue. The proceeds from that LeBron special went to charity so there was something positive out of it
