Thoughts on Lebron's exit

Four years ago when Lebron James announced "I am taking my talents to South Beach," I watched TV in amazement as one Cleveland fan - a young man in his early 20's - bawled into the camera, "This is the worst day of my entire life."

Now I'm hearing much the same reaction here in Miami. Really? It's time to get a life, folks.

If you drove home tonight feeling that your life was not going to be as enjoyable and meaningful tomorrow as it was one week ago because some carpetbagger basketball player you never met picked up and left town, then you need some serious and intensive counseling.

Or at the very least, you need to turn off sports talk radio and take up a hobby. Or read a book.

But if you still can't bear the thought of King James leaving, you can always relive the past with one of these prints from the Miami Herald Online Store.
