Cleveland is moving on with life: Workers today began removing an enormous mural of LeBron James from a downtown building, reports CBS4. The Nike ad is 10 stories tall and has been a fixture of the Cleveland skyline for a few years. It's so big that workers will spend all of today on the job and may not finish. "We are removing the LeBron James Witness mural in downtown Cleveland and expect the process to be completed within a few days," a Nike spokesman tells AP. (More LeBron James stories.)
