It’s the first Saturday of fall, college football is having itself a day and NBA training camps are slowly beginning to open.
In other words, sports are alive and well.
There’s rarely ever a dull moment in the world of sports as it is, and today, LeBron James is here to make sure our sports brains do a little extra work.
Completely out of the blue on this fine Saturday afternoon, LeBron posed a question to his 52.2 million Twitter followers — a random one, but a simple one.
The question: “Do I have college eligibility if I want to play another sport besides basketball?”
Do I have college eligibility if I went to play another sport besides basketball? How does that rule work?

Based on LeBron’s tweet, it’s unclear what sport he may be talking about. But everyone is assuming it’s football that he’s referring to.
With their assumptions came jokes.
