LeBron James NBA Championship Replica Giveaway night

[redneckofsc]

The Peoria Chiefs are holding "LeBron James NBA Championship Replica Giveaway night". Obviously since he doesnt have a ring, they dont have to give anything away.


mash here

For one night, fans of the Peoria Chiefs can have their own replica of LeBron James' first championship ring.

Call it the cheapest promotion in sports history because, like James' ring, the handout doesn't exist.

Among the other James promotional digs planned: A fan will win a "replica" of James' Finals MVP award (which actually went to the Mavericks' Dirk Nowitzki), and Heimlich maneuver classes will be offered to help prevent people from "choking in a big situation."

The Chiefs said they are "looking into" whether they can skip the fourth inning -- another poke at James, who scored just 18 points during the fourth quarter in six NBA Finals games.

"We aren't sure if the league will allow it," Peoria president Rocky Vonachen said in a statement. "But if LeBron doesn't need to show up for the fourth, maybe we won't, either."

"Really, this is just us getting back to the real world and waking up today and trying to solve our own personal problems," vice president of ticket sales Eric Obalil said.

Pretty funny stuff. I'm glad it's happening in a place other than Ohio, though. I love LeBrons choke job, but I'm afraid we are well past the "whiney bitches" line on the whole LeBron thing.

But I don't mind other places piling on.

Still funny, though.

The fact that he held that whole damn "Decision" bull shit, pissed me off more than when Thome left, so I am enjoying all of this.

So do they all have to pay our State taxes for that date? Brilliant move by the Gov. if so.

Otherwise, all I want to know is what are the "honor and privileges" of being an Ohio citizen.

Unions. Texas is a right to work state.

Summers aren't 110 degrees.

Yeah, I was aware of that and it's partly what I was alluding to. I don't mind all of the piling on. I like it. But it's too the point where Ohio looks like a bunch of chumps. I mean, making the Mavs "Ohioans" for a day or whatever? We looks like a bunch of bitches.

Nobody begrudges us taking some joy in the Finals this year, but enough of that stupid shit already.

I just think piling on from elsewhere si funny, but too much from us makes us look bad.

Hopefully people move on now. We'll probably end up going through the same thing for the next couple years. Not sure if that's a good or bad thing.

It's therapeutic in nature. What's most therapeutic is that most of the country sees what we saw last year.
