It is impossible for anything written in Comic Sans to hurt anyone's feelings.

Ha, agreed.

Gilbert hurt his feelings? awwwww too bad. He managed to hurt an entire community by his method of departure and his "announcement" infomercial. Too bad. So sad. I don't care that he left, but his way of doing so was insulting, humiliating and ungrateful. But then what do you expect from someone who is interested in self-aggrandizement and eschews loyalty.

I see 19 people who need to move from Cleveland to Miami

The ones who STILL talk about LeBron really need to stop being petty and move on.
Grow a set and stop letting LeBron get under your skin, I'm sure he doesn't give a second thought about you.

The crime rate has dropped since his mom left town.

I'd call that a wash...

He said he worked hard for the cavs that might be true but only for 3 quarters

It's funny, but most of us have gotten over LeBron and his grandstanding "Decision", but he himself brings it up constantly. I just don't care anymore-what he does or says doesn't impact my life in any way. I have WAY bigger things to concern myself with these days. We've moved on dude-you should too.

Really funny that LeBron is the most commented on subject in Stow Patch that I've ever seen. I agree that Gilbert's remarks were uncalled for. LeBron is young and still learning how to handle himself as the most scrutinized player in NBA history. Gilbert should have known better. LeBron, love him or hate him, is still one of the best things ever to happen to Cleveland and a polarizing figure.

No

I really do need to stop giving any more precious time to thoughts of LeChoke. Thank you, Patch for giving me the opportunity to give the final one. We had lots of enjoyment and pride from watching while he was here. Personally, I just enjoy some entertainment and seeing my son happy. There is no doubt the Cavs were amazing and exciting to watch while he was here and I along with most people wished him the best in his future. It was absolutely the way he went about it. It brought up many questions to the surface in my mind about sports in general. The disappointment to the kids here and the messages it sends. Thinking about the amount of time and money that's spent on sports and the hype surrounding it literally makes me sick to my stomach sometimes. How much time and energy and reporting surrounding every move these guys make, their every play in every game, the trades, their worth, their decisions and huge egos and the things they do on and off the court. Our tv is almost always on ESPN and it boggles my mind how they make huge stories out of everything. Nuff said. Hope I don't get sucked in to caring about NBA basketball again!

Gilbert's letter was awful and childish. It hurt MY feelings.

Has someone called a WAAAAAAAA-bulance for LBJ yet?

Amanda, I sure have missed some of the most-commented upon stories! Thanks for bringing me up to date.

Funny how anyone thinks one guy can win a championship? As a Cav Lebron was surrounded by average NBA level players. With the HEAT he is surrounded by great players. Why couldn't he bring them to Cleveland? Lets ponder that...

Well, if Gilbert hurt Le Who's feelings, all I can say is Gilbert may have! How long ago was that? As everyone has been saying, it's the attention-seeking way he left for Miami. Plus the fact of how and when this scheme was devised. Gilbert responded in the same fashion we all responded to the news. Highly ticked off! Gilbert should have been given some type of respect but that didn't happen.

As for me, LeWho can stay in Miami or anywhere else but I hope he and his head games don't come back to Cleveland except to play against us. Win, loose or draw it will make no difference to me. I also read that LeWho wasn't sure what to do with his ring... That's just to bad but I can tell him what he CAN do with it!

Time to forget him and his childish comments.

Boo! Hoo! What a no-good cry-baby.

Gilbert's letter hurt HIS feelings? Really? But his hour long, self agrandizing, egocentric "Decision" did nothing to incite Gilbert? Oh, please give me a break! Yes, Gilbert should NEVER have indulged himself in that immature rant but then again LeBron ought to have acted like an adult and given Gilbert the news personally. So let's tally the score; Gilbert hurt the feelings of one person - LeBron hurt the feelings of tens of thousands. What am I missing?

I don't begrudge Lebron on his move to Miami. I thought he handled his departure very poorly. In his last few years here, everyone thought we were looking for his "Scottie Pippen" when in actuality we were in search of his "Michael Jordan".

Get over sore looser fans!! The man was a free agent he had the right to do whatever he wanted to do, and if the city invested in bringing talent to our city he would not have had to leave!! He is the only reason why ESPN and TNT and other major networks came here!! Man up and write your politicians and organization owners who take our cigarette and pop money and line their pockets instead of building a great team for winning!!! Smh.. Congrads Lebron you deserved it!!

Why does Lebron get all the hate? I dislike the guy and always have even before "the decision".

But It was Gilberts fault for letting everything get out of control, he allowed a player to hold his franchise hostage and not sign an extension and instead of trading him mid season - which is what every single team does when a player is about to opt out ( clippers offered blake griffin and first rd lottery pick ) the cavs decided to roll the dice and it backfired. So Gilbert gets offended and writes an unprofossional letter posted about ethics and betrayal!!! LOL - this is the same guy in business of home loans, Now that's funny.

So I am a " hater " if I dislike an athlete? or is it if I don't afree with you Cee Jay I am a hater?

I can care less if LBJ is here or plays in Germany, or the moon. I've never liked him and I have that right, I am not a sheep like some. I form my own opinions on people and do not like Lebron James. So go on and idiolize LBJ but learn to respect the opinions of others =-)

If you are a young contract worker with a family, making mediocre money for a fortune 10,000,000,000 company and your contract is up do you hang out hoping for a better contract and pray your company invests in better team players so your company's rankings improve? Or...since you are young, have a family to feed, and desire a better career and chance to advance with a company, do you go with a Fortune 500 company with profit sharing, better benefits, better management, bonuses and incredible team players?? Think about it...!! We still get his tax money here, he still invests in our kids and gives back to NE Ohio constantly through many charities and functions. Personally, I'm glad he left and got his ring. Dan Gilbert is just like the rest of the Cleveland team owners...CHEAP!! I don't see any of them even close to being champions because they won't invest in their players!!

I'm not sure Dan Gilbert became one of the most successful businessmen today by being cheap... Ahahaha. Dan Gilbert has built his businesses on loyalty, respect and great teamwork. All redeeming qualities of which Lebron James clearly lacks. Listen... It's not his fault he's got few inherently good qualities or morals.... You don't get "pairs" from apple trees GLORIA! Now there's a class act. If I had my choice... I would pick Dan Gilbert any day.... "a family to feed".... Haha! Lisa V must be a young naive recent college grad..... He took LESS money to go to Miami!! N
