Maybe they were birthday gifts, too!
Having conviced that Ohio High School Athletic Association that his acquisition of a $50k+ Hummer H2 was proper, LeBron James sees his high school career end because a local store gives LeBron retro Gale Sayers and Wes Unseld jerseys worth $845.
BronBron's team must forfeit its previous game, which means losing it's #1 national ranking. As he's no longer on the team his school loses it's lottery ticket, as it's game probably will no longer be a hot Pay-Per-View ticket.
But LeBron probably ins't harmed. He already knows he's the first pick in the NBA draft, and now he can sign up his agent and start negotiating some endorsement deals.
I'm placing bets that LeBron drops out of school within the month so he can concentrate on creating his Kingdom... Long live King James!
