It's called 'Shaq Vs.'

by Pat McManamon on July 21, 2009

in McManamon, Shaq

I think the boss wants me to write about Shaq’s reality show for the paper. Offer some kind of opinion. But I'm not sure what opinion to have. Shaq does a reality show. It's gonna be funny. It's gonna be interesting. What's the fourth graf. I may still do it, but right now I wonder: Does the world really need another reality show?

Meanwhile, I like this picture of Shaq (credit to Getty Images) …

I just hope he doesn't end up getting hurt. Its just going to be filler till the start of the fall season.

BTW: is the panda yawning, like its bored? "Yeah, I'm in Shaq's lap… whatever…"

Great idea, putting an endangered species in Shaq's lap. I suppose it could have been worse, it could have been Sean Kemp's lap.

Actually, they should force those bears to sit in Sean Kemp's lap. Within six months, there would be more giant pandas than there are people in downtown Cleveland.

It just occurred to me, doesn't O'Neal's "reality show" actually start in a few months? It is called "An NBA Game." So why is this guy doing bong hits with Michael Phelps as opposed to doing everything possible to prevent his Achilles tendons from blowing out of his chins in a meaningless game against Sacramento?

Um July 21, 2009 at 4:53 pm

I don't think there will be bong hits with michael phelps on this show. I mean how could they show that really? phelps would get suspended again for a lot longer and he wouldn't risk the next olympics. Probably more like diving or something like that. Nothing illegal or anything like that because abc would probably get in trouble too with the govt.
and the achilles is in the feet. that wouldnt happen either the way you said. gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and think you meant shins with 's' that would be right. sorry if just a typo.
