And the TV show was really dumb, too

Simply riveting: LeBron James looked unhappy, Jim Gray seemed nervous and the studio audience looked uncomfortable, just the ingredients to make "The Decision" must-see TV. Now we know how "Seinfeld" star Michael Richards felt on Letterman.

Tweet this: OK, now that we know that LeBron isn't joining the Bulls, can we make a pact now not to talk/tweet/Facebook about him and the other two jokers for at least a month ... Please!

An Erie feeling: You've got to feel for the fans of Cleveland. Art Modell packs up and leaves with the Browns, John Elway orchestrates "The Drive," Michael Jordan pops one over Craig Ehlo for the game-winner, and now The King deserts them. If this were an episode of "The Bachelorette," Cleveland would be in the back seat of the limo crying.

LeBron's World: Much was made of the show being shot in Connecticut, but since LeBron's the center of the universe, did the location really make any difference?

No sure thing: Those who think LeBron, Wade and Bosh automatically become the greatest trio to play together in NBA history might get quite an argument from anyone who watched Jordan, Pippen and Rodman. Or Bird, Parish and McHale. Or Magic, Kareem and Worthy. Or ...

Be honest: Weren't you half expecting a cutaway shot of detective Horatio Caine tilting his head and whipping off his sunglasses once LeBron announced he was choosing Miami?

Turning ugly: During an interview with LeBron, ESPN cut away to show fans in Cleveland burning LeBron jerseys. Stay classy, Cleveland.

Get the clicker: We've had to suffer through LeBron's grandstanding, Tiger's apologizing and anything starring Adrian Zmed. ... How much more bad TV can we take?

It's not over: Rumor has it that lower-tier free agent David Lee's signing announcement will be shown during a half-hour special on the "U" co-hosted by Svengoolie.
