I logged on this morning and clicked on the article about last night's game and this is what I saw at the top of the page:

I understand that ads generate revenue but I think we can all agree that an ad showing this fool has no place on this website.

it's probably a random ad and not a permanent one. I use adblock for Chrome so I never see ads on almost any sites I visit

I don't think they can really "block" an ad on the basis that it's got LeBron on it.

No but they can block indecent exposure.  At least put a black bar over his face.

They are not ads. They are public service announcements.

Its in everyone's best interest to know what the face of evil looks like.

Best topic I've seen here in ages :] Cheers for the laughs, TP's all around.

Also; if you use an ad-blocker, will it count as a foul?
