Deciding on LeDecision

Because this is the biggest story in sports... because I'm not necessarily qualified to discuss this... because we've never seen anything like this before... because we'll likely never see anything like this again... because this was a display of narcissism on the grandest stage... because this has destroyed a city... because this has reinvigorated a city... because a triumvirate of this proportion is so rare in professional sports... because nobody knows exactly how this came together... because nobody knows how this is going to turn out... because this has the potential to change the direction of sports, period... for better or for worse...
