Tuesday Blogdome: ‘Whore of Akron’ author drops off a copy at LeBron’s house (video)
Nov 8, 2011, 4:47 PM EDT
[From The Basketball Jones] You guys remember Scott Raab, right? He’s the Esquire reporter that got banned from Miami Heat games because he hates LeBron James so much. Sure, you do.
Well, he wrote a book called “The Whore of Akron” that’s about how much he hates LeBron James, and as a promotional stunt, he signed a copy and dropped it off at LeBron James’ Akron home. It’s called guerrilla marketing and it is very effective, though I am going to go out on a limb and guess that LeBron hasn’t had a chance to leaf through it yet. Just a hunch.

They’re banning people from games? Should be welcoming anybody. Have one of the best teams in the NBA and still can’t fill that arena. Pathetic.
