TBT- LEBRON'S CHEWY ENDORSEMENT




TBT- In 2004, Lebron James signed a 4 year deal 
worth $5 Million dollars to promote 
"Bubblicious"gum. 


The original "Lightning Lemonade" flavor 
had been discontinued in 2000.


In 2005, with LBJ on board, 
the flavor was re-introduced as
 Lebron's Lightning Lemonade.

Who knows? 
It might be the "best in the world!"
**



NO MINOR MIXUP!

There is nothing minor about this umpiring mistake 
or the manager's reaction to it.


The entertainment value is definitely Major League as 
Joe Mikulik, the manager of the 2A- Frisco Rough Riders',   
disputes a blown call in his own inimitable way. 
  Earl Weaver and Lou Pinella would be proud.
