I don’t know how pervasive this story is outside the US, but inside the US, the saga of LeBron James leaving Cleveland for Miami and then returning home after 4 years to re-sign with the Cavaliers is huge. The announcement happened today.

James wrote an essay detailing his rationale for coming back to Cleveland, an essay that stands with some of the best sports essays I have ever read. It’s not too long, an easy read, well worth your time.
