Author	Topic: Shaq Vs.

	Anyone else catch the debut of this last night? I thought it was hilarious, and well done. Good smack talk between Ben and Shaq, and the "competition" really played up with tongue-and-cheek campiness to really give a good parody of the hyperbole we see on most football games. I admit to walking in with low expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised. Of course, it helps that the two athletes last night were from my teams. Still, I'm going to check it out again next week (I doubt I'd have checked it out if they opened with anything but Ben). Next is Shaq playing Beach Volleyball against Misty May-Treanor and Kerry Walsh. One of my favorite smack-talk exchanges from last night: Shaq: Are you calling me a girl scout? Ben: I'm saying you throw like one. -----signature----- Sey's big brother "God has spoken, and the rest is commentary, right?" Suffering from acute Clevelanditis

	I was aware the show was coming on, but what channel aired it? Was it Network, ESPN, or Fox Sports? From the promotions I saw, it looked entertaining. -----signature----- Queen " Baadasssss Pixie" of the Knights of the Sarcasm Table well, I don't know about you, but i'm going to homerun three strikes to the second base ~Daveeeeed~ Vin

	I made sure that I watched it last night. It was entertaining to see Shaq throwing passes like an actual QB. -----signature----- Blue and yellow make a green lightsaber.

	Interesting little nugget about this show: Shortly after O'Neal was traded to the Suns in February 2008, Nash mentioned to his new teammate a reality show he was pursuing. It would feature the Suns point guard taking on professional athletes in their own sport. The topic didn't come up again until early in the 2008-09 season, when O'Neal boarded the Suns bus and told the team he would be starring in a new reality show in which he would be taking on, you got it, professional athletes in their own sport. "You mean the idea you stole from me?" one Suns representative said he heard Nash say. Nash eventually sought out an entertainment lawyer, according to sources, which is why he now has an executive-producer credit and the compensation that comes with it. -----signature----- "What's so wrong about wanting power converters?"

	Yeah, but that's because he goes in against the best. Now, if he played against less-formidable opponents . . . -----signature----- Blue and yellow make a green lightsaber.

	True, but fewer people would probably watch that "Shaq vs some baseball player 2/3 of baseball fans have never heard of" doesn't go over so well as "Shaq vs Big Ben" -----signature----- The Arena's Favorite Baseball Player Tournament - Come vote! http://boards.theforce.net/the_arena/b10777/29864047/p1/ I approve of NYCitygurl's sig

	Bad as Leaf's career was, he'd probably still beat Shaq. But nobody'd be watching -----signature----- The Arena's Favorite Baseball Player Tournament - Come vote! http://boards.theforce.net/the_arena/b10777/29864047/p1/ I approve of NYCitygurl's sig

	Shaq did do decently well against Big Ben, better than I thought he would. But against Leaf, the show would have been on at the 2 A.M. timeslot. -----signature----- Blue and yellow make a green lightsaber. How do you get red out of blue?
