“The King” has done it again. LeBron James is no stranger to setting up his fans with a high-profile, high-budget setup for a major decision. The first one came back in 2010, then he went live in front of a national audience and made his choice to join the Miami Heat.
Although James said he regretted doing that, he was back at it this week with what he teased as “The Second Decision“. Giving just one day notice, James was set to make a major announcement on Tuesday at noon. Instead, it was an ad for his partnership with Hennessy. Fans were not too fond of the move, as he played with their emotions.
LeBron James: The decision of all decisions. October 7th. 12pm EST
LeBron James’ “Second Decision” was a Hennessy ad
To be fair, James technically did make an announcement on his basketball future: he will be back for a 23rd season. He wasn’t going to miss No. 23, as it’s the number of his idol, Michael Jordan, after all. But as if fans weren’t displeased enough by being teased, James followed it up with a cheeky social media post.
James posted on X, quote-tweeting Hennessy’s video and putting three emojis: a winking face, a tongue-out face and a crown.
James even posted it before he said he would reveal it at noon eastern time. So not only did James string his fans along, he didn’t even do it at the correct time.
At the least, it was a great announcement for Los Angeles Lakers fans. James will be back in uniform for the upcoming season, as they chase a ring with Luka Doncic.

Tom Brady Dishes Out Praise for Ray Lewis: ‘The Ultimate Competitior’
Jaylin Noel dared to do something Tom Brady would've never done in the Houston Texans' blowout victory over the Baltimore Ravens. After scoring his first career touchdown, the Texans' rookie wide receiver did Ray Lewis' squirrel dance, upsetting members of the Ravens' defense. In the latest edition of "Storytime with Tom Brady," the seven-time Super Bowl winner shared how he strayed away from doing things like that against the Ravens during his career, specifically Lewis. "I was definitely never going to get anywhere close to Ray," Brady said of the Ravens' iconic linebacker. "He was a tough man. I never was going to pick any fights with anybody out there, but I was going to instigate something and get the hell out of the way before I got my ass kicked."Brady and Lewis had a pretty fierce rivalry over their Hall of […]

Thursday Night Football: Philadelphia Eagles-New York Giants betting preview (odds, lines, best bets)
Brian Daboll’s Giants are no strangers to being home underdogs: Since hiring Daboll as head coach in 2022, the Giants have been the betting underdog in MetLife Stadium 23 times. That’s the most by any active head coach over that span. Cam Skattebo’s impact in the receiving game: The first-year running back has ample opportunity to leave his mark on this matchup amid a slew of injuries to the Giants' pass-catchers. This makes his 2.5 receptions line very attainable. Game Overview We kick off Week 6 with an NFC East showdown between the defending Super Bowl champion Eagles, fresh off their first loss of the 2025 season, and a Giants team looking to build momentum behind its young core. This matchup has been lopsided in recent years, with Philadelphia dominating the rivalry. Since Brian Daboll took over as head coach in […]
