I don't always agree with how often the racist card is pulled. Being raised in a town known nationally for it's racism, I do believe it exists, and is ALWAYS wrong...but is this racist? I don't think so, I like the picture. Isn't the appeal with King Kong more about the little, beautiful blonde being capable of calming the huge beast? I personally think Lebron looks like an appealing beast that many a beauty would like to tame!!
