Do people still care about the NBA? I was bored and peeked in this thread... what on earth can possibly be the attraction to any NBA game? Talent is spread far too wide, players have become spoiled brats (Exhibit A - Cousins) the season is meaningless and the playoffs last way too long. The so called stars are terrible role models and their moms dress them funny. I liked the strike a lot better... more room in the paper for interesting sports news. Wanna know how I really feel?

According to the Miami Herald, Hickman was asked by officials at the Shelborne South Beach to make a five-tier $3,000 cake for James' party in return for some invaluable promotion for her Passion for Pastry business.

 

Unfortunately for Hickman, her Heat-red cake with edible gold dust and an edible crown on top was met with a thumping reject in favor of an ivory-colored rum cake with gold lions' heads from another Miami bakery.

 

 

"I don't even know where my cake went," Hickman told the Herald. "I was mortified. They had me do it in the middle of the holiday crush, and I hired additional people. Someone needs to pay."

 

Explaining what had happened, the hotel's managing principal Jared Galbut said James' people had simply decided Hickman's effort wasn't fit for "The King."

 

"It just wasn't what was expected. When LeBron's people saw it, they just didn't want to use it and decided to bring their own cake. I can't tell LeBron James what birthday cake to eat. It's LeBron James, for Christ's sake," he said.

2nd one is better but it looks like it should be for a girls Sweet 16.

It is the best basketball at any level. Period.

I like the first one better if I have to choose. The second one looks like a girls cake.

Don't be sad LeBron, your party isn't ruined...

 

 

* This whole post would work a lot better if I knew how or was able to properly embed pictures. Is that something that can be done? HammerTime, yours worked. What the devil am I doing wrong?

I can't get that link to work at all. I just click on the image icon to embded the image. Then choose to upload from a url...if it's something I did myself I post to flickr (for some reason those don't imbed properly for me).
