Is this intriguing or what? LeBron is planning to announce the team with which he will sign during a one-hour special Where? Well on  ESPN  of course this Thursday night, ESPN The Magazine's Chris Broussard has learned through independent sources (yea whoever ). Funny thing is ESPN would only confirm that active discussions for the special are ongoing. But they ESPN that representatives for James contacted the network and proposed  that James makes his announcement during a 9 p.m. ET special (LOL). Another marketing effort. good one ESPN. But good thing that said that James' representatives requested that they be allowed to sell sponsorship for the one-hour special, with the proceeds going to the Boys and Girls Clubs of America, and that ESPN agreed to this. And ESPN agreed to the proposal but had not been told what James has decided.

 And we learned that the NBA's most prized free agent had opened a Twitter account on Tuesday and posted his first message on the social networking site. While he provided no information about his future plans, at least he offered something as the NBA awaits the decision on where he'll play next. With all this talk and anticipation that he will be going to Chicago had been just a hype. I would like to see James here in Chi-Town but looks like he's giving us No-Hope.

So we shall see.... to be continued.
