  Thanks, Mr. Thell, if that's your real name, Brett Edwards!

  Shaq thinks he's bigger than the game

  He flaps his trap in order to draw attention away from his lazy eye and ballooning gut.

I've been waiting on this blog to get going. Why? Best. Blog name. Ever. Rodman belongs in the Hall of Fame. Personally, I think he deserves his OWN Hall Of Fame. Empty The Bench has had it up to here (*indicates 7 feet) with Shaq. As much as I'd like to make a snarky, "That's something that could have been brought to my attention on MONDAY!" comment, I have to respect the league for coming out and saying when the refs screwed up. Carter Blanchard delves deeper into the mystery of Lamar Odom over at ...

Shaq: Pat Riley Assassinated Superman

By Bethlehem Shoals Despite having invested my dog's college fund in the Nash/Amare/Marion Suns, I've come around on the Shaq trade. It's hard not to: The team is tougher, more versatile, and yes, less of a calculated gamble in the playoffs. [image] But that doesn't mean I have to like the guy. I agree full with Empty the Bench : O'Neal is a whiny, pushy, insecure slacker whose jokes, rings and media adulation keep him from getting scrutinized like Kobe. Maybe he's ...

A Look at NBA Arrogance
Published 4/5/2008 by Rob at Upside and Motor
... Riley's arrogance however was recently eclipsed by the hubris of the self-proclaimed Most Dominant Ever, Shaquille O'Neal. Riley and Shaq had some public comments for each other, beginning with Shaq criticizing the Heat's supporting cast. For a great look at why exactly the "Big Nickname" is a pompous ass, head over to Brian Spencer's excellent post at Empty the Bench (I strongly encourage you to read it, it's undoubtedly one of the best critical articles of O'Neal that I have ever read). More important than his haughtiness however, is the media obsession with eating up all ...
