“This fall I am taking my talents down to South Beach”. This quote given by Lebron James made people either love him more or hate him. Lebron decided to go to the Miami Heat instead of staying with the Cleveland Cavaliers. The majority of Cleveland fans were outraged with him. They took the streets and started burning his jersey, de facing murals , and they even flooded the internet with spoofs of Lebron and his decison.

Even with all of the negative publicity that James was getting, even from celebs he took out a full page newspaper ad  in Tuesday’s Akron Beacon Journal showing appreciation to his Ohio hometown fans.  In the ad, he thanked Akron residents for their love and support and calls the city his home and the “central focus” of his life.

The crazy part about the ad is that he said nothing about nearby Cleveland, even though he played for the Cavaliers for 7 seasons.

Looks like Bron Bron is brushing the haters off and is gearing up for the new season in a new city. I really think his hometown should support him.
