Brace Yourself For Lebron James

On January 18, 2009, Lebron James will announce his "first love." Will it be football? Will it be basketball? Will it be to become a rapper? Those are the speculations surrounding a recently released video in which James faces an audience and says, "First of all, I want to thank everyone for coming out here today. After having a long discussion with friends and family, I've decided to follow my first love."

Thankfully, we won't have to speculate for much longer but it's likely this is tied to Nike. If it were simply an announcement as to his desire to play another sport or become a rapper, there'd likely not be paid advertising on Google promoting the video.

Whatever. We'll know Sunday.

UPDATE: One theory points to his first love being Reebok and all this is is yet another marketing stunt.

It's the Cleveland Browns baby! Well, actually it's State Farm insurance, but then, that doesn't sound as exciting does it...
