Jesse Jackson is an attention starved asshole, most of my friends who are black can't stand him either.
; however, despite the money he left on the table with a possible sign and trade, he still comes out (somewhat) ahead financially by going to Miami because Florida does not have a state income tax. Ohio's state income tax is 6% for LeBron's tax bracket (Illinois is 3% flat tax on adjusted gross income). On a $110,000,000/6 year contract, he saves $6,600,000 in taxes over the life of the contract alone. Plus, he has the option to enter the free agency market again after 4 years. By that time, he should have at least one ring.

Jesse has been starving for attention before MLK was killed. Another topic, another day.
