LeBron James Signs with....Miami?!

Update - Friday July 8. So, Lebron opted for the big money, bright lights, fame, and NBA championships after all and jilted Monona Rec League hoopsters for the Miami Heat. Turns out Lebron thought he city was going to pay him to play rather than charge him a $30 fee to play. A last minute offer by the city to waive the fee fell short of Miami's unspecified free agent offer. The nerve.

Lebron added that he couldn't pass up the chance to play with NBA all-stars Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh, although he conceded that the Monona league did have "a couple guys who played JV in college and aren't too bad."
