LEBRON JAMES FIRED up Tweetdeck earlier to dimiss rumours a romance is blossoming in Florida between the Miami Heat star and reality TV’s Kim Kardashian.

Gossip website Media Take Out, hinted that Kardashian may have her eyes on the hottest ticket in town- because they saw pics of Kim and her friend, basically, checking out The King’s bottom from their courtside seats.

LeBron, weirdly, was upset. (Let’s remember he didn’t bother picking up his phone to refute the rumours about his poor mother and a Cleveland Cavaliers teammate last season)

His tweet read:

MTO is the most disgusting/non-credible site in the world! All they do is try to ruin people lives and talk bad upon them.

Let’s look at the evidence, LeBron, through the medium of the site’s many comments under the Kardashian posting.

CrazyJamal says:

DAT KARDASHIAN STUFF BE GOOD AND IT GETS U RINGS

Fashionman opines:

damn. I bet he hitting that. Follow me on twitter though

While Ms_Xclusive adds:

OH I LOVE HER HERMES BAG!!!

We here at TheScore, will keep an eye on this developing sports story.

Meanwhile, Brian O’Driscoll took to his laptop too in the past few hours. The Ireland captain is likely to be fit for the first November Series Test against South Africa on Saturday.

He knocked out a couple of hundred words on the upcoming game in ‘Brian’s Blog’ on the IRFU website. He made no reference to any of the Kardashian sisters:

The whole squad is looking forward to playing in the Aviva stadium this weekend and the fact that our first test match there is against the world champions, South Africa should guarantee a great occasion.

We were honoured and privileged to play in Croke Park, enjoying our time there but there is something exciting about going back to what is a hugely impressive new stadium.

It’s going to be a massive challenge for us as South Africa will be looking to put the Tri-Nations behind them and concentrate on finishing the year in style.

The fact that will be wearing a specially commissioned once off green jersey – the Springboks have allowed us to play in green rather than white as the home team normally changes if there is a clash of colours – will just add to the occasion.

It’s the start of a tough month of international fixtures and there will be no let up in terms of the intensity and physicality of the challenges posed by the Springboks, Samoa, New Zealand and Argentina.

Wow. That was boring.

Elsewhere, Derby County midfielder and pantomime villain Robbie Savage has quit Twitter in the past hour – because the Daily Star ‘twisted’ a tweet into a story.

The online world is a little less blonde this morning.
