Deshaun Watson: The 2010 LeBron James Hate Wasn’t Even Like This

Excuses.

My parents and brothers every day tell me, “That’s an excuse.” So I’m used to the phrase. However, on a much different note, there were even excuses for LeBron James leaving Cleveland to join forces in Miami with the Heat.

Sure, at the time, it was the biggest transformation from love to hate that I have ever seen. I always say, be thankful LeBron decided to return to Cleveland after the city treated him for much of the four years after.

The quote that Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson said in the second preseason press conference that triggered all fans is, “It has nothing to do with the performance. It’s a little bit personal. I think that’s a disrespectful thing. I’m going to keep whatever I feel with me and my family internally on how I feel about that. Just move on.”

I still can’t believe he let himself slip and admit his hatred for Browns fans that certainly reciprocate the feelings back to him. What’s even crazier is he has absolutely no excuses as LeBron did.

-LeBron was amazing all of his time in Cleveland to start his career.

-LeBron truly did not have a supporting cast to win the title.

-LeBron didn’t do anything allegicly illegal that made fans hate him.

You know with politics, people will say, “Oh, that’s an 80-20 issue.” This means 80% of all people agree. Well, I’m starting to think dislike and hatred for Deshaun Watson is a 99-1 issue. This means that there really aren’t any excuses for him to be liked still.

-First, there are those terrible allegations against him that people already disliked him because they came out.

-Next, he has been absolutely terrible when playing quarterback for the Browns.

-Additionally his contract is five years, 230 million dollars.

Now, this isn’t necessarily on him in getting hurt and missing over an entire season, but it is till a fact that it happened causing him to be useless, of course…

We all remember when LeBron returned back to Cleveland for the first time from Miami and that was absolutely wild. I think the hatred for Deshaun is going to be worse and the craziest part is he still is on the team everyone loves. That’s the difference between this and the LeBron hate.

Unlike Lebron, I don’t see a future of winning for Deshaun and he needs to leave by getting cut. I literally posted the idea of wondering iy fans possibly will be boycatting going to games or even not watching the team or buying merchandise because of this situation.

The Browns host the Patriots in the final preseason week this Thursday at 8pm. Yes, it is in Cleveland. I really wouldn’t be surprised if his reception is almost as bad as the LeBron return many years ago.

Scrolling through social media is insane just seeing the absolute vile and authentic hatred for Watson without anyone defending what he’s done or said. LeBron had his people that said the Cavs didn’t do its part. While ignored by most, it had its validity.

This one does not.
