Hot ones? I remember watching that episode years ago, don't remember him being an asshole or a bully, what parts are you referring too?
Judging a man’s entire personality based off of a lighthearted chicken wing eating youtube show and some no-context stories is an insane decision
Yeah, growing up in Orlando and having watched my brother play a pick up basketball game with him at red bug park ( I was a bit to young then, but we both played with Dwight Howard a few years later). Dude was a good guy. Didn't make money and it wasn't some charity, no cameras around and smart phones weren't a thing then. Just kids playing ball at a popular spot. It's where kids like Chandler Parsons played all the time. We played ball with him throughout middle/high school. I'd give more details but I'm fairly sure it would narrow my identity down to only a few people if I gave more haha
I get how you could maybe call it bullying but when Shawn says no, it was a no. And there was no pushing. Dude was trying to make good entertainment. He didn't beat people up or steal people's shit. Also Shawn did drank milk and have what he wanted. It's bologna to call being mad at Shaq for this anything other than being way to "woke". I support all people and all people's rights, but if you think an idiot hurting joked in a way that was 100% acceptable to be bad... We are fucking ourselves.
