Don't you mean, Lebron might choke drinking it?

...or spontaneously self-fellate. Self-love, the ultimate opiate for LBJ.

If it's good, why not. Doesn't make me less of a Celtics fan.

Do your body a favor and drink water instead of soda.

Here's a cool organization if you're into this sort of idea:

At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

if my favorite soda changed it's name to Lebron I would have to give it up and I love my favorite soda.

Now if the word "beer" were changed to the word "Lebron" then I would still drink a lot of Lebron but I would never call it that. I'd call it ale, or porter, or malt liquor or Rondo or anything but Lebron.

Why not?  If it tastes good and costs the same as a regular Sprite, who cares whose picture is on it?  I'll drink Dr Hitler if it's tasty enough.  And doesn't, y'know, fund genocide.

Truth.  They could call Coca-Cola some pretty hideous names, and I'd still drink the stuff.  And most pops are owned by giant corporations who have probably done some pretty awful stuff in their quest for the almighty dollar.  So regardless of who's face is on the bottle, there is a good chance you are unwittingly sponsering something you may not agree with.

Sprite announced on Wednesday that it would be releasing Sprite 6 Mix by LeBron James, a drink that features the traditional lemon-lime flavor with cherry and orange. The drink will be available nationwide for a limited time in 19.2-ounce cans and 20-ounce bottles.

"I never imagined I would have my own flavor someday," James said in a statement. "I had a great time working with the Sprite team to turn my favorite flavors into a pretty cool variation of one of my favorite brands. I'm proud of what we created and I'm excited for my fans to try it."

I don't care if it was free.  I don't care if it tasted like heaven in a can.  I wouldn't drink this.  (It doesn't help that it sounds nasty.)

  I'm with you.
