While there were allegations against Kobe, Ray Lewis and Jordan, I'm not 100% sure they actually committed those acts, they were just accused, I could be wrong though. Now Vick was arressted and jailed for his treatment of animals, and people still hate him. The thing with Vick and why people seem to look down at LeBron more than Vick today is, we know what Vick did, he admitted his guilt and he is trying to better himself as a person/athlete. Was it wrong of him to do that? Yes. Should he be in the NFL? It's very debatable, but at the end of the day, we hate him for what he did off the field, not what he did on the field. We all know some athletes are going to lead double lives, many of them bad double lives and they most likely shouldn't be represented in professional sports where children look up to them.Originally Posted by PoloLax

This was just a horrible way to answer that question, no class at all. If I were him I would have said something along the lines of "They can be happy for however long, but believe I will be in the gym working on improving my game and they will see me again next year in the playoffs."
Or something like that, I mean show some class and poise. Just because they are taking shots at you doesn't mean you should fire back.
But why tho? What difference would have made? He couldve got his post comments written by the pr congressional who right for obama and it wouldnt have made a damn. Ppl just gonna hate him no matter what. So i guess yall saying if he gave this perfect speech the 10+ or so directly/indirectly threads related to hating him would have stopped? The massive amount of twits on twitter about him would cease? Clevland would have had a good job parade for him?
The funny thing is he is getting more general public etc... hate then Vick did? And he killed dogs... And we all know how much a certain large marjority of a certain demographic of ppl loves them some animals.
It is mind-boggling that he gets more hate/backlash then Kobe/Tyson during their rape case stages. Big Ben thru his rape incidents. Farve who well pretty much did what lebron did, Ray Lewis and his whole stab kill situation. Jordan and the whole fix games/point shaving/gambling getting caught up in strip club stage. Kidds wife beater moment, Barry Bonds etc...
If i wasnt hip to the nba id think dude did some crazy #%+ like molest lil kids, ate babies, kept 3rd world children locked in the basement and used them as indentured slaves or something.
Actually, Im still hearing Thursday morning for the parade.
