Give it up for Shaq!

I have never been much of a Shaquille O'Neal fan. Didn't help that he won some rings for the Lakers, who I hate just a little less than the Yankees, who I hate a little less than the Cowboys. But, Shaq has brought me around.

Asked about getting an NBA All-Star spot after only playing a few games this year, Shaq said, "I'm like President Bush. You may not like me, you may not respect me, but you voted me in."

If only the Shrub was capable of such candor, he might paraphrase some Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back for us: "I'm the chucklehead? You're the dumbasses who voted for me."

Ahhhh, weeee. It's funny because it's true.
