Let LeBron Live!
This just in...LeBron James left Cleveland to join the Miami Heat. The following actions by Cleveland owner Dan Gilbert and most Cavs fans paint a vivid picture on why it is so hard and why so few chase their dreams. How many of us have delayed or aborted a dream to meet the expectations of someone else? How many of us dreamed of leaving home as a child to start a new life somewhere else? Dan Gilbert and the city of Cleveland showed their true colors when LeBron's dream no longer fit their expectations. Overnight the word hero was replaced with traitor. Speculation is that Lebron will not be able to continue to live in Akron, for fear of public backlash. Seriously? It's just a game people! We can no longer wait for someone else to "bring us our championship". We must become our own champions and follow our own dreams. To some it's graduating college. To others it may be raising a family. To LeBron, it's to play for the Miami Heat. As a Nashville native I urge the fans of Cleveland to keep it all in perspective. Steve McNair was our hero, and we'd give anything for him to be playing in Miami this fall.
