King vs. President

by Jared Wade on October 22, 2009 at 1:30 pm · 5 comments

One of my favorite lines in movie history occurs in Fight Club after Tyler Durden asks [spoiler alert] Tyler Durden what historical figure he would most like to fight. “I’d fight Gandhi,” says Tyler Durden to which Tyler Durden responds “Good answer.”

That was my first thought after hearing what LeBron had to say about whom he would most like to dunk on during a Q&A in the latest issue of Maxim. (via Hooped Up)

If there was one guy on the planet you could dunk on, who would it be?
If it doesn’t have to be a basketball player, George W. Bush. I would dunk on his ass, break the rim, and shatter the glass.

The next logical step is for The Decider to show up at All-Star Weekend this year to not only be the sole judge scoring the Dunk Contest, but to also participate by trying to swat LeBron’s attempt to dunk on a 12-foot rim. We can even give Dubya a trampoline if need be. I mean, I know the brush in Midland isn’t gonna clear itself, but All-Star Weekend is right down the road in Dallas this year and I think the ranch will be ok unattended for one weekend.

Get on the phone, Mark Cuban.

LeBron should realize that the people who sign his paychecks, Dan Gilbert & Phil Knight, are both big supporters of the Republican Party.

Sounds like an insightful interview.

JLS, I’m not sure that would change anything…and I think that most people are aware that Bush was one of the most bipartisanly hated presidents.

It doesn’t matter who signs his checks, if he wants to imagine dunking on W and shattering the backboard then he has the right to that. Some Republicans sign his paychecks and those Republicans are making a lot of their money off the efforts of young Democrat athletes. So what?
