LeBron James Message To Absent Father: "Thanks Dad"

:lol ohhh so cute....so sweet...


LeBron James has an unlikely message for his absent father: "Thanks all along."
James, who was raised by his mother, credited his single-parent upbringing with making him the man he is today in a message posted on his Instagram page (http://instagram.com/kingjames) on Wednesday. The four-time NBA MVP specifically cited the absence of his father, Anthony McClelland (http://espn.go.com/magazine/vol5no26next.html), as one of the things that fueled him to succeed.


“Because of you Pops! Thanks all along. Could have said ‘Why me?’ with [you] not being there but look what I made of myself," James wrote.

At least he didn't try to come back into his life and do crack with him like Odom's dad tbh

If I someday attain success I'd also pay high tributes to my dad because he sets a perfect inverse example for me. He is an arid smoker and drinker so I've vowed to never touch those things again (I randomly drank light wine & beer when I was young though, but no intake of alcohol for nearly 3 years now), he got married and had me so I decided to NOT ever get married (neither lawfully nor de-facto). You can always learn something from your parents, one way or the other way around.

Here we go with everyone and their daddy coming out the woodworks trying to claim their piece of Lebron’s mega million pie. First & Foremost, whether this dude is Lebron’s daddy…or not, let’s talk about him being 29 years old sleeping with a 15 year old child, is it too late to arrest his ass?!!

TMZ Reports:

The lawsuit is explosive — in it, 55-year-old Leicester Bryce Stovell claims he met Gloria in a D.C. area bar in 1984 … and had unprotected sex with her on the night they met. He later found out she was 15-years-old at the time … he was 29.

According to the docs — filed recently in federal court — Gloria has spent the rest of her life shielding LeBron from the truth.

Leicester claims Gloria went back to her hometown in Ohio after they hooked up — but returned several months later to inform him she was pregnant with a boy named LeBron … but she never specifically identified the father.

Leicester — a self-proclaimed high school star athlete — says he remembers telling Gloria, “Well, if he’s mine, make sure he plays basketball.” He claims that was the last time he saw Gloria for more than 20 years.

According to the docs, Leicester claims he reconnected with Gloria over the phone in 2007 — when he began to think he could be LeBron’s father … partly because they look almost identical. Leicester also notes that when he saw LeBron at an NBA game he was, “struck by our similarity in appearance … James and I are nearly if not identical height and pigmentation and have very similar athletic body types.”

Leicester claims during the 2007 phone call — Gloria denied ever meeting him — threatened to have him physically harmed — and told him, “LeBron’s money is for his children.”

A few days after the phone call, Leicester claims LeBron — through his lawyer — agreed to take a DNA paternity test.

Leicester claims he was given results that showed he was not LeBron’s dad … but several months later, he began to suspect that the results were tampered with … and Gloria and LeBron were behind the fraud.

So why would LeBron participate in such a cover-up? Leicester claims it’s all, “due to anger at perceived abandonment and conflict arising from his image as a successful fatherless child from the projects.”

He also claims that Gloria had “fabricated” a story about LeBron’s real father for the “one dimensional commercial image-making purpose … to make [LeBron's] life suggestive of Spike Lee’s popular 1998 sports drama film, ‘He Got Game.’”

Leicester is now seeking $4 million from both LeBron and his mother – claiming fraud, defamation and misrepresentation.
