Ohio Gov. receives LeBron gift basket

The political war brewing over LeBron’s free agency has reached a new level. And an amusing one, at that. Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland says he received a gift basket from The Chicago Tribune that included the movie “He’s Just Not That Into You.”

Strickland said the newspaper sent the basket in response to his cameo in an online music video of Ohio celebrities singing “Please stay, LeBron. … No bigger market’s gonna love you half as much as we do.”

Also included int he gift basket: a sympathy card and the self-help book “The Complete Idiots Guide to Enhancing Self Esteem.”
