 #2I could easily see Lebron playing MLB outfield.
 He's a workout machine, he'd succeed in any sport.
 
 What college would he play football for?
 Either OSU Buckeyes or Akron Zips.Comment

 Michael Jordan couldn't hit a baseball well, neither could John Elway.
 You know who can hit a baseball well?
 Kyler Murray, his last year at Oklahoma he hit for power and average, he should have signed with Oakland A's
 
 I played baseball from 8 to 21, six months a year, every year.
 After 14 years I still couldn't hit a curveball.
 Curveballs are evil, I didn't have the patience to wait for it to break.
 As a catcher, the curve was just as evil to catch, and that includes the knuckler.
 
 I could rake most fastballs, curveballs were death.
 
 You know why Mike Mussina is in the Hall of Fame?
 Because he pitched exclusively in the AL East for twenty years, without question the most difficult hitters to pitch to 17 times a year for 20 years and made their lives torture with an overhand curveball.
 
 Hardest thing to do in any sport is to hit a round ball with a stick made of wood coming at you at damn near 100 mph.Comment

 #23James played football for two seasons during his high school days and was considered the No. 1 football prospect in Ohio. At 6-8, 232 pounds, he was compared to "a taller, slower version of Randy Moss." He received recruiting interest from several big-name schools, but he never budged on his desire to play basketball and go to the NBA.

 #24^ Arch to be fair here... all the flopping James does on the NBA floor.... his ass would get lit up by a college/nfl safety. It might of been a wise choice for him to play in the NBA. He doesn't have the mentality to play football. He thinks he does. Then again... James "thinks" he can do everything.Comment

 #25But to go back to my earlier comment, flopping is part of the gamesmanship of the NBA, like it or not. I mean, you can also say LeBron could just back his body into opponents at full force and roll over people if he wasn't worried about getting called for offensive foulsOriginally posted by TheMoneyShot^ Arch to be fair here... all the flopping James does on the NBA floor.... his ass would get lit up by a college/nfl safety.

 NBA vs NFL is a different beast, I just think it's dumb to act like LeBron wouldn't have been prepared for the physicality of the NFL. As if all these tiny WRs and CBs and whoever are physically tougher than him. They're not, they're just playing a different game and know it. LeBron is a smart and gifted athlete with a huge advantage in physicality, he would have adjusted to the NFL if he chose to play itComment

 Of course that tweet was directed to people like Michael Jordan... and other people on the outside looking in. Or if word got to them. Professional people simply laugh at this clown. Any 1 on 1 fight... Lebron would turtle in a heartbeat.
 
 And yes the NBA and the NFL is a different BEAST... and that's why Lebron TURTLED OUT to the NBA. Anyone can talk sh## through social media. BACK THAT MOTHA FUKKER UP THEN LEBRON. He won't.Comment
