Anti LeBron apparel banned for game vs Heat. 

Post#1 » by CLEsports » Wed Nov 24, 2010 11:25 pm

The anti LeBron apparel has been banned for the Cavs game vs the Heat. Why should we not be allowed to express how we feel towards LeBron as long as its not too vulgar. Every fan going to the game should where anti LeBron apparel so we can get our point across.

Send a letter to the Cavs management and say that you will stop following the Cavs if you get kicked out for wearing anti-Lebron apparel (as long as it doesn't have any swearing or anything)

After watching LeBron with the Heat, I'm not sure it matters... His numbers are solid, but his game is a shell of what it was...They definitely are not getting the same LeBron that the Cavs had... He's not the most dominant player in the game and that's exactly what he was here...

Call it whatever you want to call it, but LeBron is not the same player ?

hey guys,
sorry for trolling but i had to say something.
the israeli media reported the same thing about the anti-lebron apparel.
this is complete BS.
you have my support, and of a good number of people worldwide, i would think.
have the best of luck against the heat, and may your team kick them in the nuts.

Jazz fan here. You should be able to wear, bring whatever the **** you want as long as you don't physically harm anyone IMO. This is bull.

I do think it's wrong to stop people from wearing whatever they want to wear to show their disapproval of LeBron. However, I don't even care about him anymore.

This is going to be a circus. Getting into the building is a nightmare in the first place. Add that it is against LeBron AND they are going to turn people away?? Good luck with that. Define "negative"? Will Quitness shirts be allowed?

I think this the right move by Dan Gilbert and actually pretty smart. There is no way to enforce this unless the shirts are way over the top. Good PR move by Dan so he can at least say - hey - I banned all Anti LeBron shirts - not my fault

Not a fan of this idea. The entire point of the game is to hate on Lebron. Whatever. I hope they'll give him the VC treatment in Toronto.

Cavaliers' owner Dan Gilbert disputed ESPN's headline indicating that the team will strictly limit fans' expression of opposition to LeBron James when he returns to Quicken Loans Arena as a member of the Heat on December 2nd.

"ESPN headline is wrong & silly," Gilbert wrote on his Twitter page. "Obviously no profanity,vulgar stuff U wouldn't want kids 2 see but we are not going 2 be the Gestapo @ The Q."

Damn, I guess that they wont be showing the you tube puppet thing with Delonte during pre-game or at half time. That would be priceless. This would be a good time for the team to sell off any D. West uni's that they have left at a discount.

Hey guys Celtics fan here. Looking forward to our game tonight and your showdown with the Heat who are coming to town later this week.

I think you guys are going to straight up embarrass the Heat. Game means 100x more to you guys than them. Hostile environment I don't think the Heat have enough backbone to fight through the adversity. Am rooting for you guys bigtime and am going to annoint you guys my 2nd favorite team and follow your guys rebuilding progress. Good luck on Thursday I'll be rooting for you guys... except tonight ;)

Anyone else kind of shocked he compared it to the Gestapo? He doesn't tweet like a billionaire.

I guess it's Cleveland's job to make Lebron feel comfortable....
