I bet you really think he don’t know how much money he makes in endorsements.

And that he really spent 70k at Walmart.

And that his dad really told him that story

Come in shaq you ain’t fooling anyone. he’s a tiger so he is one of us but his stories are all pretty clearly made up.

Brilliant marketer

Having lived in both Baton Rouge and Boston, I have heard dozens of real life encounters with Shaq. Never once have I heard something bad. He is one of the few good ones.

-Wants more cops in schools, doesn't support banning guns

LINK
-Black nationalist website is butthurt because he doesn't hate cops, he actually wants to be one, and wants to run for sheriff. Also supports all lives matter, which means he is an enemy to these guys.
Clearly, he is not a Democrat.

He comes from a law enforcement family. He has, I believe two close relatives who are law enforcement. He has always been a back the blue but that doesn’t mean he is a republican. Also who cares what his political beliefs are? They have good people in almost every aspect of group of life.

Here’s what I found :::

Religion
O'Neal is a devout Muslim who plans on traveling to Mecca. However, he's said he's a man of all religions as well.

Political Views
O'Neal is an Obama supporting Democrat who even gets involved in local politics.

I never said it did... It's like you didn't even read what I said and just went straight for the reply.

Feel like he has a fairly good idea of how much he's getting, but that's awesome if not. Would definitely believe he has enough money for it to not make a difference

Shaq really is an all-around great guy. The only thing that you could ever hate on Shaq about was his lack of elite work ethic in his prime. As good as he was, he could have been better for longer. But even then that is a stretch because he is top-10 all time without a doubt.


I'm still mad at my mom for not trying to sleep with him in college at LSU when they hungout. I love my daddy to death, but you mean to tell me Shaq could have been my dad.
