Lebron's new Nike commercial (aka vommercial) is terrible

Have you seen LeBron's new Nike commercial (aka vommercial)?  Here's the link, if you happen to be living without a TV and only use a computer:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdtejCR413c

According to youtube, this commercial is only 1 minute and 32 seconds, but it's so schizo with a flashback to The Decision, St. Vincent-St. Mary, and a re-enactment of the large mural smoothly coming down in Cleveland.  Anyone who was following the saga knows that there was nothing smooth about LeBron's "decision" to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers.  Yes, he was free to go.  I'm not going to argue that.  I get it.

In the commercial we see LeBron at a podium speaking to an empty room.  Yes, LeBron, in my opinion you did ruin your legacy.  Yes, you're not a role model.  You're a misguided basketball player who made poor choices and should really let your game speak for itself. 

The acting and soulful poem crap demonstrate the narcissism since that is the same crap (aka shtick) that he used in his Sprite commercials.  Oh, and nobody cares about the tattoo on his back.  Don Johnson...  Seriously?!?!

In the commercial, LeBron asks "What should I do?"  Here's an answer: Pull that stupid, extended re-mix of a vommercial that makes me long for the days of the MVPupppets.

Miami Heat v Boston Celtics ~ Thoughts during 1st Quarter

Opening night for NBA action, and since I'm "trapped" watching the game I figured I'd start a string of bullets to collect my thoughts as I watch and listen to this Miami Heat v Boston Celtics game.  I will admit, right now.  I'm from Ohio.  I used to be a huge LeBron proponent.  I am/was very familiar with the Cleveland Cavs organization and I'm still DISGRUNTLED and ANNOYED with "The Decision".  I understand, LeBron had the right to leave.  I'm one of those people that thinks that THE WAY he did it, was classless. 

Oh, and I must mention that I saw his latest Nike commercial earlier today.  I think it sucks.  And "Yes," LeBron, you ruined your legacy.
  • I want the Boston Celtics to win tonight. 
  • I want the Miami Heat to go 0-82.
  • Poor Craig Sager, having to interview Chris Bosh before the game.   I wonder just how bad, Miami's record has to be, before Bosh will stop getting interviewed.  I'm tired of hearing that Miami's 3 (i.e. Wade, LeBron, and Bosh <--- I think I just threw up in my mouth typing "Bosh") didn't have much court time together.  Sooo sorry, there wasn't much rehearsal time due to injuries...  That's LIFE.  Suck it up. 
  • It's good to see Steve Kerr on TV again.  Hmmm, that reminds me of that I used to date a guy that looked just like him...  ****Not sure what that means or how it's relevant, but this is my blog so I can include whatever I want.
  • LeBron is still doing the chalk into...  Guess that's gonna stay.
  • Shaquille O'Neal as a Celtic...  I hope it works out for him and for Boston fans better than it did during his stint with the Phoenix Suns.  I want to see Boston succeed with Shaq...  However, I must admit I don't expect much out of the big fella.
  • The score is Miami: 8, and Boston: 14.  I am thrilled.
  • Dwyane Wade is 0-4 from the field right no.  Game is a little boring.
  • They just showed Erik Spoelstra.  Ok, I'm back to being interested in this game again.
  • Not only is Wade 0-4, he as 3 turnovers and just sat down on the bench.
End of the 1st Q ~ Heat 9. Boston 16.  Ugh, now they're showing that stupid Nike commercial again.  How long is this commercial?  It feels like it's 7 minutes long...  Yuck.
