C'mon Double C's


As sugknight114 mentioned last week (in which YaySports! picked up as well), Usher Ryamond was asked by Dan Gilbert to not come to the Q until he fufills his promises when he purchased a portion of the team.  Now as much as I want a celebrity owner to give more exposure to the Cavs, he has to at least go to ONE game.  I mean c'mon.  Involvement would be nice.  But on the other end, I wouldn't mind seeing the crowd throw up the most tamed gang sign around. 

So my buddy Aaron threw over this opinion piece today from the Ohio Free Times about Mr. Usher which touches on a few additional points regarding his future with the LeBronaliers: 

According to DeepShot, the hip-hop king has, in fact, met his financial commitment but is too busy with his Hollywood career to be present for every game.  A discussion will take place in the new few weeks between Usher, Gilbert, and the other minority owners to decide if Usher should become more visible or possibly step away.  That decision will be private.  No, Usher is not being punished for misuse of executive snacks, and the only reason he's not on the Web Site is because the site needed updating.

Hmm..I mean ONE game would be nice..
