Snap Judgments: Shaq's Feuds


It's getting hard to find someone in this league with whom Shaq hasn't had a feud. The latest Hatfield to his McCoy, the Harvard to his Yale, the Krispy Kreme to his Dunkin Donuts is Stan Van Gundy.
Wait, Stan Van Gundy? I heard what SVG said about Shaq and his flopping. It was obviously said in jest. It was said with a smile and in a pleasing tone. And then Shaq brings SVG's brother (JVG) and Patrick Ewing into it.
Wait, Patrick Ewing? Didn't he retire in 1978? Shaq must have noticed that his star has slipped on SportsCenter. He hasn't been getting the airtime that he used to. Apparently he's smart enough to realize that he only makes news when he says or does something to criticize another player and/or coach (see his rap performance about the flavor of a certain player's posterior and who should sample that particular flavor).
I propose that SportsCenter be required to show a certain quota of Shaq highlights per week so they don't feel compelled to air 4 minutes worth of his rants every time he gets offended. If SVG's words are enough to get you this riled up maybe your manhood isn't what you thought, Shaq.
