Osi Advises LeBron to Stay Put

In another boneheaded statement, sure to inflame New York even more against him, New York Giants defensive end, Osi Umenyiora, advised superstar LeBron James to re-sign with the Cleveland Cavaliers instead of coming to the New York Knicks as a free agent. Osi stated on his blog as playmakermobile.com, "I know New York would love to have him and I'm sure Knicks fans hope he comes. Personally, I think he should stay in Cleveland. They need him and he's a Cleveland guy. It would be great to have him in New York but I think he should stay there. Ultimately, he has to make the decision that's best for him and his family. I will say this, if (LeBron) does come to New York, don't have a bad game. Not one because Knicks fans will come down on him. There is no better place to be than New York, it's a great city with great energy. But it does go both ways. When you lose, it's tough." I used to be an Osi Umenyiora fan, as I think a lot of us were. But, last season that all changed. He has become a whiner, excuse-maker, lackadaisical on the field, and has terrible grammar :). It's not New York Osi, it is you. LeBron, don't listen to him. Ask Derek Jeter. If you play hard and are committed to your team and the city, we will love you more than any other city in the U.S.A.
