The "Free LeBron James Getting Posterized" Movement Gathers Steam

We all want to see the footage of LeBron getting dunked on, but Nike squirreled away the tapes in its secret underground Portland vault, and all we do is bitch. But the Internet's premier trolls actually did something about it.

4chan, helpfully described as "the asshole of the Internet," also has some boards that don't traffic in furry porn and Raptor Jesus. Specifically, /sp/ their sports board. The lovable scamps discovered that Nike has live customer support chat. What follows are selected unedited transcripts. If only Mumia had such devoted supporters.

Ann: Hi, my name is Ann. How may I help you? Joy Cotlor: Hi Ann...LeBaron James is my favorite athlete, so that's why I only buy Nike Joy Cotlor: I've been looking for Lebron video that happened this week Joy Cotlor: But someone said Nike took all the copies Joy Cotlor: Do you know anything about it Joy Cotlor: ? Ann: Hi Joy Ann: The Lebron video! Ann: I have been hearing about that video! Joy Cotlor: You know the one I mean ;) Ann: I will check and see what is happening with that Joy Cotlor: I bet they show it to all you employees Joy Cotlor: and threaten to break your thumbs if you leak it Joy Cotlor: BUt at least tell me about it! Did Lebron cry? Ann: I wonder what happened? Ann: I am checking Ann: I don't actually know what Lebron's reaction was Joy Cotlor: Guess! Ann: Nike is very interested in any comments you might have about this event! Joy Cotlor: Will you drop him as your spokesman since he got dunked on? Joy Cotlor: It's kind of lame - I think I like Chris Mihm better now Ann: I can forward that to our Nike Team! Joy Cotlor: Awesome Ann: And thank you for taking the time to tell us about your reaction Ann: Are you satisfied with the resolution I've provided today? Joy Cotlor: Oh yes very Ann: You prefer Chris Mihm? Joy Cotlor: Tell LEBron I am unsatisfied with his defense in the paint Joy Cotlor: Chris Mihm doesn't get dunked on by high schoolers Joy Cotlor: Ok Ann thanks for all your help Ann: I will forward that as well
