Lebron opening his I promise school and John when you and I were talking about this

when you and I were talking about this before we started recording this is just at like a time when you need a good story or something like that this is definitely it

yeah leperron is we'll call him polarizing for some people I and I can understand that there's a certain on the court maybe

distaste for him if you're a Cleveland fan or Miami fan or whatever maybe you're just a fan of another team you just say I just don't

doing I mean I think that's a good word for it yeah I mean that's what I I really just love what he's doing and to give back to his community in such a big way he has committed to educating children in Akron for years and years and years.

He's committed to giving kids free education, free college tuition at the University of Akron.

Now he's built this school for kids, these at-risk kids.
