Unfortunately, a lot of kids — and some adults — take these ignorant comments seriously,” “And it’s always unwise to seek political advice from someone who gets paid a hundred million dollars a year to bounce a ball.”“Oh, and LeBron and Kevin: You’re great players, but no one voted for you … So keep the political commentary to yourself or, as someone once said, shut up and dribble.”
During today’s All-star game press conference LeBron responded to Ingraham’s comments by thanking her for giving him and his political commentary more publicity.
