EASY...LEBRON MADE A MISTAKE..BUT CALM DOWN

First, I need everyone to calm down. I know what you are thinking because I thought the same thing when I saw Lebron with Tom Brady's chick on the cover of Vogue.

I have no personal problem with Lebron posing for the cover of Vogue with a Brazilian white woman. However, Lebron needs to be aware that, even though it is 2008, there are a lot of people who still think like it is 1958.

He also needs to realize that the average Black has to overcome 1958 stereotypes on a daily basis. When a star athlete does something, albeit unknowingly. to perpetuate a stereotype, it only makes it harder on the rest of us. I honestly believe that Lebron didn't realize what a stir this would cause mainly because, when one has 100 million plus dollars in the bank, one sometimes forgets that little things like this can have big implications.

With that being said, everyone relax. Lets not make it into a national crisis. It is just a young kid who, to some eyes, made a mistake. Let's move on. I don't want to see Al Sharpton boycotting Vogue, Jesse Jackson giving a speech, or Obama forced to talk about it. Trust me, it isn't that serious.

I think you are taking this too lightly Littal. You are right when you say every time an athlete makes a decision it hurts us all, but Lebron should be smarter than this

You would never see me with a white woman

This is why he will never win a title

Honestly Gisele is not even that hot

I like white women

I don't think so. You have to revise your looks. In general your blog is good, but sometimes your posts are creepy.

Stuff of this kind always sounds attractive, no matter what exactly is written. My friends and I always visit this page and write a lot of comments, because this type of news are amazing.
