OT - LeBron
I don't post on here much, but I stumbled across some cool stuff today about LeBron. He apparently has some secret that is supposed to be out 1/18/09. Of course there is already speculation, and it mainly has to deal with him playing football. Here is the commercial and supposed leaked photos.

I believe LeBron has said before that if he went to college he would have went to Ohio State, what would have happened if he would have stuck to football?

well it's not a secret anymore is it?

Lebron could've been a terrific TE or linebacker, imho.
January 13th, 2009 at 2:17 PM ^
He probably would have been the first 6'8" linebacker in NFL history. I don't think he would have played LB.
Instead, he would have been the first 6'8" wide receiver in the NFL.

Shawn Crable is 6'6", I believe. He could be a LB in a 3-4 defense. He's probably best suited to play TE, though.
January 13th, 2009 at 2:52 PM ^
Lebron is 6'8". I'm not sure if you thought that said 6'6" or if you're just saying that Crable is tall, too. I apologize if I misinterpreted your post.
Anyway, I think Crable was always listed at 6'5" and then he measured in at like 6'4 7/8" or something at the combine.

I wonder where they are going with it...
January 13th, 2009 at 2:09 PM ^
freaking football fans and their willingness to move every basketball player on the planet to tight end
January 13th, 2009 at 6:00 PM ^
Well, considering two of the best tight ends of the last 20, 30 years in the NFL were basketball players in college (Gonzalez, who also played football in college, and Gates, who did not), are you surprised? Arguably those two are two of the best 3 in that span (Shannon Sharpe being the other that immediately comes to mind).

The secret is he's signing with the Knicks in 2010.
January 13th, 2009 at 4:44 PM ^
The knicks are then gonna go on to win every NBA finals until the end of time.

Great, Lebron made a commercial to promote an upcoming commercial.
January 13th, 2009 at 2:20 PM ^
Speaking of commercials, does anyone know what those commercials with the capital "G" are advertising? I've seen a ton of them, they usually have a bunch of big name athletes, and they have huge billboards out here, but they don't let you know what they are advertising. They have the entire side of Hotel Figueroa painted, which must have been a fortune. Any insight would be appreciated.

its a new line from Gatorade.
January 13th, 2009 at 3:10 PM ^
Yep, notice they're all current or past Gatorade athletes with a few newcomers thrown in.
January 13th, 2009 at 3:20 PM ^
Sounds like 'G' isn't even a new line of gatorade products, just a re-branding of the original:

Also, pardon my total ignorance of pop culture, and please don't laugh at me too hard before answering this:
Who are the three people at the end in white shirts and masks doing the mime-like routine?
January 13th, 2009 at 3:26 PM ^
They were on MTV's "America's Best Dance Crew" or something like that.
January 13th, 2009 at 3:43 PM ^
They're a highly-regarded dance group called the Jabbawockeez...and they dance like no one else on Earth. They are flat out amazing.
January 13th, 2009 at 4:03 PM ^
I'm going to go out on a really thin limb and predict that this "secret" somehow involves a Nike commercial which will air during the Super Bowl.
