LeBron James drops F-bomb during Cavs victory celebration

LeBron James dropped an F-bomb on live TV while talking about a fellow teammate during the Cleveland Cavaliers NBA Finals victory celebration on Wednesday.

The NBA was talking about the first time he saw Timofey Mozgov in person.

"So I come down the elevator and Timo is in lobby and I swear it looked like i was seeing the biggest human being I've ever seen in my life," he said. "I looked at [General Manager David Griffin], he said 'He a big motherf***er, ain't, huh?'"

In addition to that word, James used other off-color language during the interview. The lines got a huge laugh, but it's hard to say how funny the FCC will find the moment.

ABC apparently had the game on seven second delay, because LeBron went speechless during several bits of the post-game interview.
 
Not sure if that's what happened...I think the reporter was on a wireless, and it was cutting out.

As for the f-bomb, David Ortiz did the same thing when the Red Sox when the World Series. These athletes live in another world. They need to be made aware that some parents don't like their kids to hear bad language. A lot of recording artists do the same thing at the Grammy Awards. it's selfish and thoughtless. They need to be told.

don't forget days after the Boston Marathon Bombing, David Ortiz said "This is our f***ing city" during a emotional pre-game ceremony for the game they played that day. while it aired on cable TV, it was one of those times if it happened on broadcast TV, the FCC might had be ok with it as it's raw emotion and a "in the heat of the moment unintentional" swearing.
