Lebron-james-part-time

Lebron caused a stir yesterday by asking if the NFL were still signing players (Lebron James Wants to Play in the NFL During the Lockout, Eagles Should Call Him).

Pete Carroll decided to test Lebron’s interest.

If I was Lebron I would do it. I would just start showing up at NFL practices. Yes, it is attention whoring, but it is interesting attention whoring.

Don’t lie, you would be glue to your TV if Lebron was signed a week contract with a NFL team and debut on say Monday Night Football.

But bye weeks are really bad for sports writers, and consequently they’re really bad for fans. With no football to cover, writers get desperate and type up stories that quite frankly do not deserve...
