After three-week vacation, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart came back last night. Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James was the interview guest, and Stewart made a plea from suffering Knicks fans, hinting that King James could come to New York and enjoy the splendors of Shake Shack and the American Museum of Natural History. Oh, and an "I Love NY" mug.
James made a "Shaq Shack" joke—referring to his new teammate—but let's face it: LeBron apparently really loves the Yankees, so a 2010 move isn't that far-fetched, is it? [Via Eat Me Daily]
