LeBron James live-tweeted the Browns crumbling against the Packers
LeBron feels your pain, Browns fans.
The Cleveland Browns did what the Cleveland Browns do on Sunday — break the hearts of their fans. This time, they blew a 21-7 lead against the Packers, and lost in overtime.
LeBron James was watching the game, and live-tweeted the Browns unfolding before his — and the rest of our eyes.
First, there was optimism:
1 last stop @Browns!! Just 1 more

Then, DeShone Kizer threw an interception that went straight into the air, and back down into the hands of the Packers defense:

Then, the L came:
Got dayuummm man!!

James has previously had input about the Browns and their quarterback situation.
“I think Deshaun Watson should be a Brown,” James said via Cleveland.com in November, elaborating on his criticism of Phil Jackson. “Doesn't mean that Myles Garrett isn't going to be a great football player. But Deshaun Watson should've been our quarterback. Doesn't mean you're (ripping) on the next guy. It's just that you stating what you see.”
it led to rookie quarterback DeShone Kizer being asked about James’ comments:
#Browns DeShone Kizer on LeBron James saying Deshaun Watson should be the #Browns QB: “It has nothing to do with me”

Kizer wasn’t wrong with his comment, either. Yes you would prefer the best athlete on the planet not say that another player should be the quarterback instead of you. But the Browns could have selected Watson far before they selected Kizer. Instead, they traded the No. 12 pick to Houston, and took Myles Garrett No. 1 overall.
Also, any quarterback the Browns have touched in the past 18 years has turned to crap, so who knows how Watson would be on the Browns.
LeBron’s struggle as a Browns fan lives on for another week. They’re now just three games away from an 0-16 season.
Maybe the King could suit up at wide receiver?
