D Wade.... Even more reason to hate him and the heat.

I'm guessing you've never been pelted with a penny or a battery.. cause it hurts like a mother, and I couldn't imagine getting hit with one at a great distance..

We knew Albert Belle was a grade A jackass, but he was our jackass. He belted 50 bombs a year and was the cleanup hitter in a lineup that was absolutely stacked & almost won us a World Series.

We knew LeBron was a Grade A douche, but he was our douche. He was the MVP, put the Cavs on a part of the map they've never been, and almost led us to a title.

After 48 years without a championship, why is it so surprising that we'd support 2 guys who were such integral parts to us contending for championships.. then hate them when they A) left for the $ and B) made us look like fools ?

Same thing with Wade. If he was on our team, of course we'd support the hell out of him. That's kind of what being a fan is..

And I find it hilarious that the same people breathlessly lobbing verbal pennies and batteries at D Wade for a cheap shot (Albert Belle/Fernando Vina anyone?) would be the first ones in line at the Cavs merch store at the Q to buy his Wine and Gold #3 while telling their kids how great he is.

If you cant see the irony/humor in that, well... wait I dont care.

End.

You're kind of missing the point....Albert went around on Halloween trying to hit kids with his car. He was an admitted recovering alcoholic. He was an admitted hot-head who always struggled with his temper.

D-wade is a douchebag who kicks opposing players in the nuts, tackles point guards while sweeping the leg, and runs down open-court players recklessly. Top that off with admitted adultery, alleged sex parties, broken business deals, and writes books on how to be the best dad in the world. All the while his PR machine continues to force down our throat what a great guy he is.

He's a sham.

Albert Belle was a dick, but at least growing up my dad didn't have to tell me he was a prick. I knew it because he essentially admitted it, and made no bones about it. And honestly, there is something fun about rooting for a "bad-guy" who doesn't give a shit about it. D-Wade isn't that guy.....
