Gilbert comes off more like an immature, cry-baby, internet message board dweeb than an owner of a major sports franchise. It's called FREE agency douchebag! If you don't like FREE Agency sell your damn team. You had 7 years to surround Lebron with talent, yet never added a legit star to play with him. Miami gave him 2 stars to play next to in a single off-season. And in case you didn't notice, your team is located in Cleveland Ohio. No stars are going to willingly come to Cleveland when they can play in Miami, LA, Chicago, New York etc... Even Bosh rejected a sign and trade to come there and play with Lebron. Without Lebron the Cavs will soon be a lottery team again. Their only hope is to draft well and land the next Lebron, who will likely bolt outta town the first chance he gets, just like your Akron boy did.
Gilbert is a total xxxxing tool and the laughing stock of the sports world this morning. I don't know much about the guy, but he has to be a Cleveland native. He comes off just like the rest of you self loathing morons who will never see a major sports championship in their lifetimes and has nothing but hate for all of the other cities who actually win something. A bitter, bitter little man full of hate and spite, trying to deal with his ineptitude by calling it a 'curse'.

Go back to your sister/wife steeler troll.

I loved it. It was the kind of angry, let's-go-kick-ass statement Gilbert needed to make. Not some, "We wish him well" bullshit. Call it like it is: Lebron is the most narcissistic Judas in the history of organized sports, period, and he quite obviously will bring a curse on Miami Heat basketball for the rest of time. I might be understating that.
I'd like to know just what the Cavs plan to do now, though.

I hope they dont charge for admisson or food or beer when they play the heat, everyone will get drunk and save some money, and everyone in cleveland can boo the whole game.

As would we all.
I like the statement, though I do think it could hurt in the search for FA this year.

I have always like Dan Gilbert and have always had confidence in him to bring us a championship. I'm more excited to watch the Cavs rebuild toward a title without the self-appointed King than I would have been had he stayed and held this franchsie hostage for more wasted years.
The Cavs got a huge boost tonight. This is a great thing for the franchise. Let's roll ...
I'm a Cavs Fan ... South Beach is gay.

Couple of things: 1. Gilbert is from Detroit I believe. He is not a native Clevelander (I am not even sure he lives here)
2. We KNOW that your opinion is purely one made for spite because you are a Pittsburgh Steeler fan. So, you completely lack any credibility. You mihgt not have this same opinion if a big player for the Steelers or Penguins pulled this same kind of BS, fair to say.
3. Your opinion of Gilbert will not be shared by many people. It is you who come out sounding like the tool. People will talk about what passion an owner has to make this kind of statement, because in fact, most sports owners would come out with their oh so politically correct, mealy mouth statements about a situation like this. If Gilbert had given one of those politically correct, mealy mouthed statements, you would have blasted him for that...because you are a tool and would have criticized his statement no matter what he said.

It will take you two seconds to Google up Dan Gilbert and know where he is from. Surely It is not asking for too much is it ?

Anyone listen to the jackass hosting the Jim Rome show on the radio today? This board and that radio station are my only links to sports right now... He kept having Clevelanders call in, they got to speak half or one fourth (thats .5 or .25 for you silverback) of what was on their mind and then he started overpowering them with some kind of jackass music while telling them Lebron was right. Sadly in the few minutes that I listened, no one with a brain called in. I think a big portion of the people who are mad (like myself) are more angry about the way he left, not that he left. Am I happy to see him go? Yes and no. I would have rather he stayed... But to go around acting like a "King" when you haven't won shit.... We should have (and did) see this coming. I just thought he'd man up and stay. I would have never put any money on that though.. what does that make me?? Big Z and Andy have and always will be my guys!

Hell, he could have manned up and left properly, giving us the time to get free agents etc. and I would have accecpted it a hell of a lot better than this.

Check this out,
Gilbert also owns FATHEAD
LeBron's Cavalier fathead price went from $100 to $17.41.
Benedict Arnold was born in 1741.
Awesome
EDIT: 17.41 not 49

.1. I have no spite towards Lebron or the Cavs. I could really care less where Lebron played, but ESPN shoved the things down our throats all week. This may surprise you, but in general Pittsburgh fans could give a shit less about Cleveland or the Browns all but 2 weeks a year. We don't stoop to playing Browns logos on the jumbotron during Penguins games to get people to boo the way they do with Steelers logos at Cleveland games. I've attaneded a bunch of Cavs games over the years. It's the closest place to catch an NBA game, and I've gone there to see Magic, Bird, MJ, Shaq, Kobe, and Durant play over the years.
2. If a big player for the Steelers or Penguins left in free agency, I would realize it was FREE AGENCY!!! The team should have signed them before they hit free agency, or built a strong enough team to keep the player happy. If not, move on to the next guy. I wouldn't cry about it, or burn jerseys, or carry on like an idiot like people are doing now. Hell this year in free agency the Penguins lost their best defensman. Knowing it was FREE AGENCY, their GM ray Shero had a plan B, and went and signed the next 2 best defensemen available on the market in a matter of an hour. Good GM's have a plan B, not an excuse filled tirade to fall back on.
3. Gilbert comes off as an immature douche bag. The things he says, and the way he says them makes him sound like a little kid, or a chick who just got dumped by a guy. Talk about curses,and guarantees of getting a title before Lebron. It's pathetic, very over-emotional and irrational. Lebron doesnt owe you anything. He never asked to be drafted by Cleveland. He gave the Cavs their best 7 years in franchise history, the franchise did little to help him build a title contender, so he left for a better team in a nicer city. Any one of you would do the same. Hell, Florida is full of ex Clevelanders who got better jobs and moved away.
4. You xxxxing boo'd Lebron in the playoffs. Fully knowing he was about to hit the open market, you boo'd your hometown hero is a loser fashion that only Cleveland fan could stoop to. Then you cry about him leaving when you forced him out the door...

Amen. Can't wait to hear about all the behind the scenes stuff that's going to come out in the next few weeks.
This just in from ESPN- Bosh, Wade, and LeGone set this all up even to the point Bosh announced early, so Traitor could make it look like the situation was SO much better in Miami.
And more from ESPN- wanna know why LeBron turned down the Bulls, even though the NBA insiders said it was a better situation to win now?
Because Jerry Reinsdorf told LeBron in the sales pitch- Sorry LeBron, we ain't flying your entourage around on the team jet, and giving all your lackeys cush jobs with the team- we didn't do it for Jordan, and we sure as hell ain't doing it for you.

ESPN shoved it down all our throats. It does not surprise us that Shitsburgh does not give a tit about Cleveland. The feeling is mutual. It pisses us about the way ESPN shoved it down our throat and the way the whole thing was orchestrated by our native boy who decides to insult us in the big stage.

The reason why this free agency was called unprecedented was cos a huge bunch of top class free agents opted out of their contracts and waited for teams to come woo them with presentations and then all decided to sign with one team screwing a whole lot of teams. Forget Cleveland, do u think that NY, NJ, Chicago, Clippers were all idiots for playing the waiting game ? No. It is just the way it is. That is what makes this year so unique.

Sure LeBron does not owe us anything and neither do we. People are sad cos he left - but no hard feelings. But the manner in which he left with a televised exit ? That does feel like a slap in the face and is pretty insulting. People with self respect can empathize, I dont know about you. Again - It is not about the fact that he left, but the way in which he left.
4. You xxxxing boo'd Lebron in the playoffs. Fully knowing he was about to hit the open market, you boo'd your hometown hero is a loser fashion that only Cleveland fan could stoop to. Then you cry about him leaving when you forced him out the door...
The crowd did boo him when he quit on us. Maybe in Pittsburgh you are not allowed to boo quitters but over here It is all fair game. And do u really think that if we praised him for quitting on us, he will stay back ? Listen he went to a team with a better talent so that he can win a championship there. That is fine. But he called the national media and had to make his announcement live and then out up a drama there which did not sink well with us or a majority across the country. Please read the prior two sentences until u understand it.

are you for real with this?? I hope so... then again is that just so he can clear out all his old Cavs Bron crap? One would think...
I was wrong, it's $17.41
2 of them are sold out and the Fathead JR. is on clearance for the same price

Couple of things: 1. Gilbert is from Detroit I believe. He is not a native Clevelander (I am not even sure he lives here)
2. We KNOW that your opinion is purely one made for spite because you are a Pittsburgh Steeler fan. So, you completely lack any credibility. You mihgt not have this same opinion if a big player for the Steelers or Penguins pulled this same kind of BS, fair to say.
3. Your opinion of Gilbert will not be shared by many people. It is you who come out sounding like the tool. People will talk about what passion an owner has to make this kind of statement, because in fact, most sports owners would come out with their oh so politically correct, mealy mouth statements about a situation like this. If Gilbert had given one of those politically correct, mealy mouthed statements, you would have blasted him for that...because you are a tool and would have criticized his statement no matter what he said
.1. I have no spite towards Lebron or the Cavs. I could really care less where Lebron played, but ESPN shoved the things down our throats all week. This may surprise you, but in general Pittsburgh fans could give a shit less about Cleveland or the Browns all but 2 weeks a year. We don't stoop to playing Browns logos on the jumbotron during Penguins games to get people to boo the way they do with Steelers logos at Cleveland games. I've attaneded a bunch of Cavs games over the years. It's the closest place to catch an NBA game, and I've gone there to see Magic, Bird, MJ, Shaq, Kobe, and Durant play over the years.
2. If a big player for the Steelers or Penguins left in free agency, I would realize it was FREE AGENCY!!! The team should have signed them before they hit free agency, or built a strong enough team to keep the player happy. If not, move on to the next guy. I wouldn't cry about it, or burn jerseys, or carry on like an idiot like people are doing now. Hell this year in free agency the Penguins lost their best defensman. Knowing it was FREE AGENCY, their GM ray Shero had a plan B, and went and signed the next 2 best defensemen available on the market in a matter of an hour. Good GM's have a plan B, not an excuse filled tirade to fall back on.
3. Gilbert comes off as an immature douche bag. The things he says, and the way he says them makes him sound like a little kid, or a chick who just got dumped by a guy. Talk about curses,and guarantees of getting a title before Lebron. It's pathetic, very over-emotional and irrational. Lebron doesnt owe you anything. He never asked to be drafted by Cleveland. He gave the Cavs their best 7 years in franchise history, the franchise did little to help him build a title contender, so he left for a better team in a nicer city. Any one of you would do the same. Hell, Florida is full of ex Clevelanders who got better jobs and moved away.

Your spite is toward Cleveland and the Browns. You just piggyback that onto the Cavs, who I agree you probably could care less about.

You might not, but 90% of Pittsburgh would carry on this same way. Also, here is a clue for you: the Cavs offered all kinds of deals to LBJ to keep him from becoming a FA. He didn't want to do it. He wanted to become a FA all along. All his loyalty talk was just lip service.

#1 Gilbert comes off as a fan. You are the one that sounds like an immature douchebag for criticising the statements that any fan would make. Thank God there is an owner out there that has his emotions where his money is, and that really wants to win. The other two guys in town here? Lerner? He is probably more emotional about his futbol team in England. Dolan? He has shown absolutely no interest in fielding a winner. That is what fans do, get over-emational and irrational at spurts. But Gilbert will have the ability to translate that emotion into real action...unlike all other fans. And also, you are dead wrong. LeBron DID ask to be drafted by the Cavs. He stated that he fervently hoped the Cavs would get the first pick so they could take him and so he could stay home. And you are absolutely wrong about the Cavs doing little to help hm build a title contender...they brought in the point guard he wanted, they brought in Shaq, they traded for Jamison. Every move was made to bring in a title contender. And they WERE a title contender (do you deny that the team with the best record in the NBA is a title contender? Next time the Steelers say have the best record in the NFL, would you accept the proposition that they are not a legit title contender?). No, the reason the Cavs didn't win the title comes down to one thing: the inexplicably poor performance by their Superstar in their most critical games (or, in hindsight...is it inexplicable?)
Also....have you been to Miami lately? Nice city? Nicer than Cleveland? Certainly nicer to a crack whore. Otherwise, that is very debatable.. Though you got one, and only 1 thing right. LeBron does not owe us anything in terms of being legally obligated to anything here. But, integrity, and legal obligation are two whole different matters.
4. You xxxxing boo'd Lebron in the playoffs. Fully knowing he was about to hit the open market, you boo'd your hometown hero is a loser fashion that only Cleveland fan could stoop to. Then you cry about him leaving when you forced him out the door...
So? The guy plays like he was still in high school, and he is immune from criticism? Is that your theory? That's its a fan's job to pump up the ego of a player no matter how disappointing and poor his performance is?
They'll be booing him in Miami if he plays that badly, rest assured.
