Apology accepted. It is important to look at things from different perspectives. Otherwise, better go to see your eye doctor...lol

Shaq is who he is. He's never pretended to be anything else. Pretty rare in todays athletes. you know that selfish Kobe is just hating this.

Very nice story. A couple of years ago, Mikan appeared on a SI cover with Shaq, as part of a story on the legacy of great Lakers centers. Mikan, Chamberlain, Jabbar, and Shaq. And now, of course, Chris Mihm

Classy move.

For all his shortcomings on the court, O'Neil distinguishes himself with this act of generosity.

Maybe some ballers can take a lesson from Diesel.

I wonder

Great move by Shaq.

I've been wondering how many athletes donate money or do unselfish acts but not tell anyone. People say that Kobe is a selfish ass but how do we know that he hasn't donated a crap load of money or time to various organizations and not tell a soul?

Anyways, it's good to see that there are generous people in the world.
