Pay Up


LeBron James and the Cavaliers came to town yesterday to play the Bulls, and King James paid off a bet as well.  He’d wagered Dwayne Wade that the Indians would beat the Cubs in the World Series, or he’d show up in Chicago wearing Cubs’ gear, and that’s just what happened.  Pro basketball players caring about baseball, I love it.

I also didn’t mind the Bulls handing the first-place Cavs their third straight loss.  The new-look Bulls are 11-7 on the season, which is nice.  But here’s a possible cause for concern:  They fly down to Dallas for a game tonight without Wade, who turns 35 next month.  It’s a scheduled day off to keep Wade fresh and ready to go for the playoffs.  If that doesn’t work, April and May will be all Cubs, all the time.
