James, a known New York Yankees fan, explained how he maintains an allegiance to both the Bronx Bombers and one of their American League rivals in the Indians.
"I'm a supporter of winners, man," James said. "As a kid, I've told you guys long before this day, when I was a kid growing up I needed inspiration to get out of the situation I was in. So, I loved the (Chicago) Bulls, I loved the (Dallas) Cowboys, I loved the Yankees. Those are winning franchises. Those are people that I liked because they gave me hope of being a winner. So, that's part of the reason why I've always loved those teams. But I'm definitely in support of what the Indians are doing right now."
