Let’s be honest, most professional athletes aren’t exactly Rhodes Scholars. Between patting each other on the ass, sipping Gatorade and playing their respective sports ball games, most athletes would be better served being seen and not heard. Not LeBron James! When he isn’t worried about being hunted by the racist police or shilling to the Chinese, LeBron is busy being the biggest hypocrite in all of sports! Hyperbole you say? I think not! Sunday, during the Cleveland Browns game, LeBron took the time to throw out accolades to his favorite sexual deviant, Deshaun Watson. We all remember Watson and his exploits, don’t we? Despite being arguably one of the biggest stars in all of sports, and being able to land most any woman he wanted, Watson liked his, shall we say massages? It’s all a very sticky situation to say the least. Check this out.
We know that LeBron James stopped rooting for his favorite team, the Dallas Cowboys, because of Jerry Jones’ stance against anthem kneeling. However, apparently, James has no problem cheering for people accused of sexually assaulting or harassing two dozen women.
On Sunday, as Deshaun Watson and the Browns were beating the Commanders in Washington, James sent a congratulatory tweet to Watson, letting the QB know that he was “getting his rhythm back.”
The moral compass of professional sports cheering on his favorite sexual deviant

Despite the very obvious joke about “getting his rhythm back”, how tone deaf can one man be? In LeBron James case, he can’t hear a dog whistle, which is unusual considering how many ticky-tack fouls are whistled when he is involved. It should be recalled that James famously criticized Jerry Jones and stopped rooting for the Cowboys when Jones spoke out about kneeling in his stadium. The important part of that is “his stadium”. It’s Jerry’s team and he can see fit to make rules any way he pleases, even if James doesn’t agree. As a sports fan I can only say I think it is hilarious to say Watson is getting his rhythm back. He beat a bad Commanders team on Sunday with a very scattershot performance in a game that meant basically nothing for either team. As a man with some sense of decency, root for Watson privately if you must, but when you have millions of followers and are considered a role model, then perhaps you shouldn’t throw your support behind an alleged sleazeball like Deshaun Watson. Needless to say, social media did what social media does.
You stopped being a cowboys fan because of Jerry Jones but you are now actively rooting for Deshaun Watson!?

My son is a huge fan of you.. he no longer will be supporting you after this tweet. Supporting Watson is no message you should be sending to the young kids out there. What's next you will tweet about R Kelly?

The only way this could look worse for James would be if he were eating a Jell-O Pudding Pop, wearing his I “heart” Harvey Weinstein shirt bumping some R. Kelly in the background. How anyone can listen to or take anything James says seriously moving forward is beyond me. That actually applies to the entire NBA, as they have put social justice and virtue signaling ahead of actual entertainment. The entire situation is gross, and in a world where athletes and owners can be fined, or worse for expressing an opinion or supporting certain Presidents, LeBron James cheering on Deshaun Watson is just about par for the course.
