Wow, Shaq. RuPaul? That's...clever. :roll:

Once again though, people will laugh at it because of who said it, not because it was funny. This one is almost as witty as his line about "The Sacramento Queens".

Paul Shirley - funny. Shaquille O'Neal - (Please Use More Appropriate Word).

It took you this long. I've been ashamed since the 4th game of the season. Welcome aboard.

If the refs called things fair every possession, he'd be getting fouled every single time. Players lean on and hack him so much without calls.

This is actually very funny because it actually has an element of truth in it. I was cracking up when I first saw it. Shaq is the man.

That's probably the last time Shaq is gonna score over 40 points in a game (at least until they play us again) so let the guy enjoy reliving his past glory without tainting by crying about the refs. Sure he may have been in the paint way too long way too often on Friday but you leave that for Triano to bring up during the game not after it to the media. It's not like the loss means anything to us. We're not making the playoffs and it just gives us more ping pong balls. There's alot of other losses that Bosh should have been frustrated with.

Bosh should know if he questions the performance to the press it's gonna make news because he's an all star so he has to expect to get it back by Shaq in the media twice as hard. Unfortunately this comment may come back to haunt him the rest of his career. Let sleeping dogs lie because he should know Shaq won't take the criticism lying down.



Oh puleeease! Boo hoo. Bosh is frustrated and makes a comment about the officiating. Big Cry Baby Shaq gets his nose out of joint and makes a terribly off coloured comment about Bosh. One of the biggest stars in the history of the league and he has to make comments like some little teenage girl.

How many players in this league have made comments on the officiating without getting the response he did? Shaq acted just like the bully he is! He can dish it out but he can't take it. Not even if it isn't addressed exactly to him.

If you count every time that Bosh or Kobe or Lebron travelled in a game or Paul and Kidd palm the ball then every game would take 4 hours to play. Stars get calls, it will never change.

It is possible for Shaq to have come up with something much funnier than this. I mean....RuPaul? Half of the kids nowadays don't even know who he/she is.

Of course you love it, you hate Bosh. Shaq could've said anything insulting about Chris and you probably would've busted a gut.

Bosh is the one who started it and Shaq is the baby? Bosh didn't say general comments about the officiating like "some of the calls or non-calls out there were pathetic". He specifically said "I thought there was a 3 second rule in the NBA". Who's being the baby and acting like a sarcastic punk especially a player who has absolutely no NBA cred in that he has yet to win a damn playoff series.

Shaq is the greatest combination of size and agility I've seen in my life.

Sure he acts like a spoiled brat at times but when it comes to the game, that's what BC would call size/skill ratio. Absolute beast.

Trust me RuPaul will be googled to death now. You have to admit it was kinda funny. Especially when you pair it with that haunting photo on the 1st page of this thread.

I didn't laugh. I thought it was another idiotic comment by Shaq, who has always annoyed me.

Maybe my standards of comedy are higher than others.

Shaq's one of the all time greats, no doubt. But lets not forget he's a childish, egostistical, attention craving media whore.

you just proved that a guy at his size with that footwork is remarkable. Don't hate on shaq cause he dropped 45 and talked after that.
