It was owned by Nike, not Cleveland, the Cavs or Gilbert.

I wish they would donate it to the city, and let them have one last "Fuck You" LeBron statement and let them burn it. Then, invite every news and media outlet in the world and have an hour long special about how the fans and the city feel about LeBron now as compared to when he played for the Cavs. Make it about how it's not that he left, but how he embarrassed the hell out of the city, the state, and every fan he has. (Because in my opinion, even his fans who aren't necessarily Cavs fans, should feel embarrassed by what he did)Hell, don't make it about the city - make it about the whole state. Just like the sign says, "Akron hates you, and so does the rest of the state". Then at the end of the show, have our own "decision". Burn it? Bury it? Or simply fold it up and hand it back to Nike and take the "high road". That would be the ultimate slap in the face to LeBron's image in my opinion. A way to see him off from Ohio, and a nice big "Fuck You" from the whole entire state.

And..I doubt he'd care at all.

Of course he's going to say he doesn't care, and maybe he won't - we don't care. He compared it to a break up, if your girl of 7 years drug your name through the mud (after you pretty much did the same), even on the outside if you said you didn't care, deep down inside - wouldn't you care just a little?

The ultimate slap in the face to him would be for the entire area to be indifferent from here on out to his presence, lack-there-of and career.
