Anything LeBron does is going to be talked about so when he used a word that many consider offensive, he had to apologize. I know a good number of people that use that same word & they mean no harm when using it … so I’d love to know how our readers feel about it?!?! Hit the jump for the story & weigh in…
Via ESPN:
LeBron James of the Miami Heat apologized Wednesday night for using the word “retarded” while answering a question posed in a pregame interview.
James says the word’s usage is a bad habit that he’s trying to break, and that he’ll try not to use it again.
“I mean no disrespect,” James said.
The NBA’s four-time Most Valuable Player opened his postgame interview session by addressing the matter without being asked.
