Again....

In 2010 he undertook a Ed.D. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_of_Education) in Human Resource Development (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_Resource_Development) at Barry University (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_University). (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaquille_O%27Neal#cite_note-nytimes.com-138) His dissertation topic was "The Duality of Humor and Aggression in Leadership Styles".

He's just finishing up.

One of the things I do admire about the guy. Even though he was a mediocre NBA Player he stuck to his principles and completed his degree at LSU by going to classes in the summers. Now he's gone a step further and I think he's really a good example for kids who play Basketball but don't think education is important.

WTG Shaq.

Shaquille got himself a bath with a Dove Bar and now is stuffing himself in a Buick Verano to show you that a 7 foot Man can survive the airbags deploying in it.

I'm gonna now say that I wasn't kidding just to see where this goes.

He wasn't. Unfortunately, I'm being 100% serious.

If I'm not mistaken, I remember you arguing that Shaq wasn't very good on this board in the past?

Yeah. He blows. There wasn't an argument. I just made a statement that is pretty obvious when you throw up his Lifetime Stats. Dude never made it in the Top Ten.

He wasn't very versatile and his free throws were atrocious. Given the gift that God gave him....to have ended up with Stats like his is a bit of a disappointment IMO. I think if he'd never been in LA and had all the Rap and movie career he might have been able to focus more on Basketball and really put himself in the Top Five...who knows....maybe #1 all time.

Jordan. Now there's a Ball Player.
