Business first game second would lead me to push for a sign and trade to chicago. He took much less to go to miami. I say he put the game first in an attempt to get rings.

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.

hate to break it to you that the business is a lot more than his salary at Miami!!

I completely agree with you on Jesse Jackson though..
