The problem is that the first thing out of his mouth is "LeBron James is going to hell." Supposedly, it's one man's search for the soul of LeBron James. The audacity! (This guy is Jewish. Last time I heard, they didn't believe in Jesus. So who's going to hell?) Using such a castrating, lowdown epithet to sell what is nothing more than his musings about his own lousy life in Cleveland is no more than a white man capitalizing on white hate for a black man (aka the runaway slave). Love or hate LB, that Harper Collins endorsed such a title is sickening. If the writer were of a darker hue and the athlete were white, no way this would have flown past the editors. Now that's the arrogance of racism!Holliday Vannhttp://www.blackbiter.com/2011/11/the-whore-of-akronnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6803135128442396638.post-36298353065231721562011-11-07T12:13:33.988-06:002011-11-07T12:13:33.988-06:00Feel free to add me.

Still not where I need to be.<br /><br />Thinking Hard<br />I think having confidence in your greatness is different from having a complete assurance of your superiority in every way.<br />One is arrogance the other is self confidence.

You are not "arrogant...What's up Big Man!<br /><br />You are not "arrogant" if you are right! And you are definitely right on this one.<br /><br />The thing is, as far as your blogging and commenting personality goes, I think that you are one of the least arrogant people I have come across. You are often introspective in your posts, and often gracious in pointing out the "other side" and its potential for validity. So I just don't see it... <br /><br />Then again I don't know you in person and you can possibly be a complete arrogant ass! :-) One never knows!!!<br /><br />In any case, this other guys problem is his, not yours...MODInoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6803135128442396638.post-44960766930381829042011-11-03T15:19:01.505-05:002011-11-03T15:19:01.505-05:00I usually stop by to see what you are talking abou...I usually stop by to see what you are talking about but I had to de-lurk to say this was very well said.
