LeBron James Is Excited Johnny Manziel Is Finally Playing
By Josh Hill
LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers are bouncing back after a bad start to their season, but the former MVP still has time to get excited about Johnny Manziel playing for the Browns.
The Brian Hoyer era seems like it was decades ago, at least that’s the way it seems from the reactions of fans now that Johnny Manziel is in the game. Hoyer had led the Browns into a position to make the postseason, but as soon as he was benched in Cleveland’s loss to the Buffalo Bills, Manziel’s name was being praised by fans.

One of the most excited fans to see Manziel in the game was his buddy LeBron James. With the Cavaliers off until Tuesday, LeBron was watching his hometown team play and tweeted out his excitement over Manziel coming in to replace Brian Hoyer.
It wasn’t a jump for of type of moment or reaction from LeBron, but he wasn’t hiding his excitement to see his buddy take over.
The love LeBron has for Manziel goes both ways, as the quarterback got into hot water for going to NBA Finals games that LeBron may or may not have given him tickets for. To boot, Manziel was courtside for LeBron’s return to Cleveland during the Cavaliers home opener this season and he got a little crazy.
With Manziel starting for the Browns, fans finally have the dynamic dup in Cleveland that was desired ever since the two came to town earlier this year.
