There is alot more to having Shaquille O'Neal on your team than just basketball. Case in point, "Shaq Vs.", a new reality show starring O'Neal, will start shooting this week. According to a story about the show, Shaq will look to take on other athletes a their sports -
Shaq Vs.", which is set to premiere Aug. 18 at 9 p.m. ET, begins filming Wednesday in Pittsburgh, where Shaq will take on Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger in football.
Future episodes of the hour-long show will feature Shaq against Olympic swimming sensation Michael Phelps, boxing legend Oscar De La Hoya, St. Louis Cardinals slugger Albert Pujols, tennis star Serena Williams and beach volleyball Olympians Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh.
O'Neal thought the show would be a good way for him to get ready for the NBA season, though seeing Aristotle hurt himself swinging a baseball bat or tennis racket is not this Cavs fans idea of entertainment.
For their part, the Cavaliers gave Shaq the OK to participate in the show.
Try not to hurt yourself, OK big fella?!?

Is there anyway we could give Shaq a bonus to hurt Ben when he plays him … I’m just sayin hes a Cleveland boy now … that comes with great responsibility and hatred towards the Steelers.

It'll be interesting
because they negotiate a handicap beforehand. Obviously Shaq is not going to train for a week and then hit more HRs than Pujols, lol
