LOTD: LeBron James at Tight End for Cleveland Browns in 2009?
Today’s link of the day comes to use via our good friends at Waiting For Next Year, who have highlighted the recent commercial shoot that LeBron James did in which he dons a Browns #23 jersey.
That sudden gust of wind you feel is the collective hopeful gasp of Cleveland Browns fans everywhere.
Here is an excerpt:
As the Browns head in to the off-season and look to add key members to positions of weakness, one of said positions is arguably wide receiver. I think we can all agree that the Donte Stallworth signing did not work out as planned. Joe Jurevicius’ knee is on the rebound, but will he ever be 100 percent? And will Braylon Edwards fit in to Eric Mangini’s long term plans?
…
How long until you start seeing #23 “LEBRON†jerseys at Browns around Cleveland? I give it however long it takes for custom jersey shipping ordered today.

Here is one of the leaked photos of the “secret” LeBron James-Browns photo shoot, via LeBron2010:
And before you think this is just some ridiculous pipe dream — okay, it probably is, but still — remember that LeBron James was not just a phenomenal basketball player in high school. He was also a great football player too. At least, he was through his sophomore year before he (wisely) quit to focus on basketball and protect his global icon body from unnecessary gridiron punishment:
Hey, if you’re a Browns fan, you are in the business of irrational hope. We keep on hoping for a Super Bowl in Cleveland. Maybe all the stories about LeBron bringing a champion to Cleveland are correct — everyone just got the sport wrong?
Fine. I’ll snap back to reality now. I was hoping we might have a chance at getting a receiver who was big, strong, fast, did not go to Michigan, and who could catch. But probably not…

@The Schlott’s & others, I wish I knew! I just did some digging online and I couldn’t find anyplace that has it yet. I’m sure you can customize a Browns jersey through the NFL shop, but I can’t find anyplace where you can buy them already made.
I’m sure it’s only a matter of time though…
