Bregman needs to keep his mouth shut and play baseball. I have know that he is a liberal who dislikes Trump and he has that right. But, to refer to jackass like Lebron James as a " role model" is ridiculous. www.khou.com/article/sports/mlb/astros/alex-bregman-tweets-lebron-is-an-amazing-role-model-embarrassed-by-trumps-tweet/285-580551031I love Alex Bregman as a player and I am a huge Astros fan, but, Alex popping off about this embarrasses me. And that damn bleached hair should embarrass him. If he thinks Lebron James is an "amazing role model",he has no clue what makes a good role model. Right now, I would not think Bregman is much of a role model. As a player on the field, yes. But, this makes him look bad. James always want s the credit when his team wins and none of the blame when it loses. He jumps from one team to another looking for a team with good players to help him be on a championship team. Then, he will take most of the credit if they win and jump ship as soon as possible if they lose. Not a guy I would want young players to use as a role model. James has no class or character. I think Trump overdoes his use of tweets,but, he told the truth. Not only is Don Lemon a racist who reports fake news for CNN, he is dumb. I fully agree with Trump saying it would be difficult to make Lebron james look smart. And his "I like Mike" comment is his way of saying Michael Jordan was a better player than James and that is a very true statement. James isn't fit to carry Jordan's jock strap. |

Bregman really needs to stay off Twitter but so does our president. I’m not a huge LeBron guy, but besides his exit to Miami years ago, he’s been a class act for the most part. The guy is Mother Teresa compared to most professional athletes.

I am a scientist who really beleives in the laws of averages. 90% of the time nature averages things out for good of natural order.
Example....
Nerds are typically Hi IQ land low athletcism.
Jocks (with excpetions of course) Hi athletism, and low....... well you get the picture and Bregman's example.

I could care less what Bregman writes about or what he does legally outside of baseball. Athletes get paid to entertain, not educate us. Bregman's thoughts and opinions matter as much as the Dixie Chicks.

My biggest problem with Bregman is that dyed blonde hair. Hit .300 first before you get all weirdo flashy, Bregs.

That dyed blonde hair and comments like the one he made here serve as nothing but a distraction to get him some attention. Since he made the All-Star team and did well in the home run derby he has hit mosly weak popups. He thinks that dyed hair makes look cool......it makes him look like a little boy in need of attention. |

Bregman withstanding, I will have to go own record that I dislike LeBron James probably more than any other American athletle.
He is the poster child for Arrogant Thuggery.

LBJ is not a thug, but yes on being arrogant...but that probably comes with every time he talks he has a microphone shoved in his face, asking him different questions...and answers them with the way he feels... He just doesn't have the same voice as you or I do... If we can focus on being nice to one another...and not get caught up on who is on whose side....then Fox News, CNN, MNBC, etc could all go away....which I would be very happy with...I am tired of the name calling...we all live a short life, let all the Francis' Lighten up. |

I fully agree with txheat on James. He is a terrible role model for young people. He disrespects the country and the president and supports the NFL players who kneel during the anthem. |

All I'll say about LeBron, is that he appears to be a very good family man that has never been caught up in affairs or assaults or any blemish to his name off the court. He certainly has a bit of an ego, but most athletes at his level do. You have to have confidence to be that good at something.
I don't care about his political leanings either way, but he appears to mostly be a decent guy.
And if we're all honest, Trump has made himself into a caricature. Some day hopefully we'll have real options for President...
