Let’s celebrate the one-year anniversary of LeBron James’ The Decision with a nice book. Whoa!
Scott Raab who writes for
Esquire and was famously banned from Miami Heat home games (as a credentialed writer, anyway)
====
Scott Raab, was one of LeBron’s biggest detractors when the Queen went
on television to announce he was taking his talents to South Beach. And
since Raab writes for Esquire, his views on the subject are well known.
His series on the ESPN Decision debacle and aftermath oozed animosity
and dripped disdain, and in case you didn’t get the message, he’s also
written a book about it. And why not call it The Whore of Akron, a
phrase Raab coined in Esquire?
Raab was famously banned from Miami Heat home games (as a credentialed
writer, anyway) for, presumably, the ‘Whore of Akron’ thing. What was it
that Mark Twain said about picking fights with people who buy ink by
the barrel? Increase that sentiment twenty-fold when you add Amazon.com
to the equation. There’s also something from The Godfather about keeping
your friends close, but your enemies closer. It seems that the Heat
organization doesn’t pay a lot of attention to pop culture. Too bad:
they’re about to get skewered. Again.
The book is due out in November. From the Amazon site:

Oh, don’t bother. We have a pretty good idea.
