Respect him for being a fan of the Cowboys, though.<br /><br />Watching my daughters' high school volleyball games, I cheer for them loudly when they do well. But I don't root for others' failure. There is something fundamentally wrong with someone who does <br />that. That is someone's daughter out there, too. And you wouldn't want someone booing your kid just because of their laundry.<br /><br />LeBron James has done nothing to you personally. Except maybe steal away some of your joy in the '06 Fina.... oh wait. What's that? HE WASN'T ON THE HEAT IN '06? But he WAS on the Heat in 2011, when THE MAVS WON the championship? Get over it, already. Cough.

Lebron is a real fan, not just on the bandwagon. These are the 8-8, done nothing Cowboys and he is still not ashamed to admit he is a Cowboys fan. (Just like me!!) Go Cowboys!!<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07429569644277911641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6769468336490808451.post-1436294007401087772013-09-09T14:01:25.535-05:002013-09-09T14:01:25.535-05:00Lebron is a Cowboys fan, and as such I am not a fa...Lebron is a Cowboys fan, and as such I am not a fan.

Boo him on the basketball court. If he's cheering for your team, he's a fan like you, albeit one that is far richer and with more access than you'll ever have. I'm a Spurs fan and this doesn't bother me at all. Hell, I can't believe Jerry hasn't tried to get him suited up for a practice.

For me though, I will root against him in basketball but embrace him as a fellow Cowboys fan.elmatahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14196540756712885423noreply@blogger.com
