As much as I am not a Shaq fan, I have to applaud his latest action. :clap:

Shaquille O'Neal took out a full-page advertisement in the Los Angeles Times to thank his fans for their support during his eight years with the Los Angeles Lakers. O'Neal signed last week with the Miami Heat, marking the end of an era during which the Lakers won three NBA championships.

Shaq was goaded into that!

He took a huge PR hit from Kobe taking the high road and the Lakers taking the higher road by taking out the ad in the Miami paper. He was bad mouthing Laker management, bad mouthing Kobe, and looking like a grade A horse's ass.

I just think there is no way he takes out the ad if the Lakers didn't do it first and if Kobe hadn't said all the right things at his press conference while Shaq said all the wrong things.

Thank gawd the fat lazy slug is gone.

Yes, a far bigger hit than being accused of rape and all the wonderful publicity that accompanies that.

Shaq's beef was with LA management, not the fans. Drew Bledsoe did the same thing with fans in Boston, and they respected him for it. I don't think Kobe saying "all the right things" had anything to do with it.
