Once again, as they did with the World Cup, people who never cared about basketball before suddenly care about Lebron James and what decision he made last night.
I think it bothers me most because I know a lot of these people very well and know that they're being fake in order to try to impress others. I don't talk about sports because I don't watch sports. I like to go to sporting events every once in a while, but I don't pretend to know what's going on all of the time and mostly I just go because it's a fun experience.
So who cares about Lebron James? Basketball fans do. Non-basketball fans shouldn't pretend to be fans one day out the year. Are you really being true to yourself when you feel the need to lie about something as trivial as caring about certain sports that we all know you don't care about?
