The Drubbing

The Big Shaqawokee has struck again. The Diesel has a long history of calling people out, and mixing it up in the press. But this one is a doozey.

After Shaq busted out a monster 45-point game against the Toronto Raptors, their star center, Chris Bosh claimed that O’Neal had been the benefactor of some officials playing loose with the rules and ignoring the three-second lane violations that Shaq should’ve picked up when he was camping out in the paint.

Shaq, not being one to take a hit lying down shot back with the following, “I heard what Chris Bosh said, and that’s strong words coming from the RuPaul of big men,” O’Neal said. “I’m going to do the same thing (in their next meeting) I did before — make him quit. Make ‘em quit and complain. It’s what I do.”

The RuPaul of big men? That’s harsh. Chris Bosh’s hair style has been in question for quite some time, but that’s just downright mean. He’s got a point with the rest though. If anyone isn’t sure why Toronto is completley uninvolved in the playoff race, and sitting behind the likes of Charlotte, Indiana and Milwaukee (without Michael Redd), allowing the 36-year old O’Neal to drop 45 on you is probably a good place to start. Doesn’t exactly point to a lot of defensive intensity, or even pride for that matter. Sounds like they might have… well, quit.

On a related note, I’m going to try and present this as delicately as possible, but some of us around The Drubbing have raised some serious questions about the gender originality of a certain individual that was slated to play in the women’s McDonalds All-American game. That was, until her school shot that plan down. A Candace Parker interview video clip has been provided for voice comparison, as she is a lady-like basketball player.
