Yahoo! Blog"Shaq Vs." will feature Shaq challenging some of the best athletes at their sport head-to-head. Right off the bat, this is an idea gone wrong already.
Shaq has never been known to be a physical specimen. Sure, he's tall, huge, and strong - but generally lacks athleticism. Maybe if he did this 10 years ago, it would be a bit more feasible, but not in the twilight of his career.
And something that Cleveland fans should be worried about is that Shaq's full-time gig is to actually help Lebron and the Cavs make it out of the East and challenge the Lakers, not go around failing to throw a football as far as Ben Roethlisberger, struggle to hit against Albert Pujols, or let Michael Phelps swim laps around him.
The show is not a good idea, Shaq is not athletic enough to keep up with any of these athletes, let alone have the skills to compete. He is also suppose to fight Oscar De La Hoya, play tennis pro Serena Williams and beach volleyball Olympians Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh. The only event I see Shaq possibly having a shot at winning is boxing with Oscar De La Hoya simply because he is much bigger than De La Hoya. However, if Shaq needs to come down to his weight class (this might be the best part of the show) - I guarantee it's a lost already.
Now a reality show that I will actually watch will be "The T.O. Show," Terell Owens will be observed in his natural space and has always been an entertainer. He takes on himself in the show (a role he has mastered) and not other athletes and ratings like Shaq will do.
In the match-up between "Shaq Vs." Ratings, Ratings will win by K.O. after 3 episodes.
