It might sound trivial and pointless to debate the loyalties of LeBron James, but it’s a practice that has been going on for years now.
Now that he’s found a seemingly permanent home in Los Angeles, the conversation is no longer about which team he’ll hop to next, but more so about which NFL franchise he represents.
You see, for at least a few years, James was believed to be a Cowboys fan — and there’s pretty good evidence to support he was at one point in time.

Besides several of his social media posts hinting at his Cowboys fandom, there are several pictures of him donning the team’s gear in public, a clear sign that he supports “America’s team.”
But, on Sunday, he was videoed at a game rooting for the Cleveland Browns, stirring up some confusion from the community.

Obviously, LeBron has close ties to Cleveland, seeing as how he won a Championship in the city and was born just miles away in the town of Akron.
So, it really makes sense that James would be a Browns fan.
Of course, it doesn’t stop there. Not long ago, the “King” made an appearance at an L.A. Rams game, suggesting he might be a Rams fan. And while going to a game doesn’t mean you have to be a fan of either of the teams playing, he does currently live and work in Los Angeles, so (again) being a Rams fan does make some sense.
With all of this in mind, it’s almost impossible to figure out which team James supports the most and it definitely stirred a lot of people up.

So, which is it, Bron? Are you a Cowboys fan, a Rams fan, or a Browns fan?
It’s entirely possible the answer could be all or none of those teams, as he has never officially set the record straight.
For now, let’s just let the guy support whoever he wants. It’s not like those teams don’t enjoy having him in the stands anyway…
