Lebron finally thanks Cleve... I mean Akron...

Lebron James marketing team continues to do a bang up job of managing his image. This time they've taken out an ad in the Akron Beacon Journal - NOT the Cleveland Plain Dealer - thanking the residents for their support over the years. The article quotes James as he explains his connection to Akron with his 'lifelong friends and mentors,' that provided 'guidance, encouragement and support.' Maybe with the CORRECT mentors, guidance and encouragement he wouldn't be in the position he's in now.

Note to every celebrity, athlete, or aspiring business person: based on the handling of this whole situation.... Akron is NOT the place to find smart business minds.
