Just a Little Fun

Before heading back to work friends Lebron James and Kevin Durant decided to put basketball on hold for a little while and hold a flag football game in Akron, Ohio.  Team Lebron took on Team KD after KD tweeted earlier this month about participating in a flag football game after a college fan asked him to play for their team.  After KD agreed James later tweeted KD stating that the flag football game sounded like fun and few weeks later the two hosted a flag football game against one another.  Lebron, who played football in high school, seem to be the star of the game on both offense and defense scoring over and over again for Team Lebron, including a few touchdowns after picking off Tony Durant, KD's brother who played quarterback for Team KD, a couple times.  Team Lebron ended up winning the game by one touchdown 70-63 after Lebron picked off Tony again with 2 seconds left in the game.  All fans of Lebron and KD had the ability to tune in and watch the game if they liked as the team was streamed live on Ustream.  Sounds like a lot of fun but now its time to get back to work as the teams opened up their facilities to the players to today and training camps will begin next Friday December 9th.
