According to a reporter, Ohio is not good enough for LeBron James and others.
LeBron James When LeBron James left Ohio for South Beach, Brian Windhorst writes in The Washington Post that the dilemma James faced was emblematic of the one facing so many young professionals from Ohio.
Firmly in the Rust Belt, our state has been battling a talent and brain drain for decades, one made only more severe by the challenging economy in recent years. It may have been an agonizing decision, but in the end James made the same choice thousands of people in Ohio have made: He left because he felt there were better circumstances elsewhere. He merely followed the trend, upsetting as the trend might be.
Windhost writes that he understands this dilemma particularly well, because, on a much smaller scale, he experienced something similar when he moved to Miami to cover James for ESPN.
On the front lines of James’s departure, I became a sounding board, and later a target, for the frustration of Cavaliers fans. The e-mails, online comments and tweets poured in, many of them from former Ohioans who were supporting the team — from someplace else.
