I shoulda been a baller

Thanks for the head shot Gov. It really is a breath of fresh air in there.

A recent plane ride from beautiful Cleveland to Connecticut this week offered me the pleasure of sitting next to the second cousin of the step father of LeBron "King" James, an 18-year-old hoopster who just signed on with the Cavs for a cool $150 million. Unbelievable story, especially when cruising at an altitude of 20,000 feet.

Apparently, he's good, too.

And he's an all around good guy, according to my high-altitude pal; he donates jerseys to the local pop warner leagues, hands out free Nikes to fans, and hires local down n' out Cleve kids to drive his Escalades and Porches.

Ah, I remember my first job bagging groceries at the local Stop n' Shop. Those were the days.
