In the summer of 2014, LeBron James optioned out of his contract and rejoined the Cavaliers. Read the following open letter LeBron penned to the fans of Cleveland. Then write an essay in which you analyze the rhetorical strategies James uses to win back the allegiance of the fan base.
HW: Write two rhetorical analysis paragraphs uncovering the strategy from LeBron's letter home.
