You're Welcome, Cleveland - Scott Raab - Bog

In 2010, when LeBron James announced to the world that he was leaving for Miami, he broke the collective heart of his native city and destroyed the hopes of an entire tortured generation. As LeBron headed south, unofficial spokesman Scott Raab sent him off with a middle-finger salute of his own?a deliciously obscene aria of sports fandom, Jewishness, and weight gain that becameinfamous as The Whore of Akron. Four years?and two NBA championships?later, LeBron came home to the Rust Belt faithful who had vilified him mercilessly, none more so than Raab. You're Welcome, Cleveland is the story of both LeBron's and Scott's redemption as they pursue the one thing they crave more than anything in life?an NBA title for the city that made them men.LeBron is back. So is Scott Raab. It's a great story.
