I can't believe there isn't a topic already! I love this show. Shaq has so far challenged Ben Roethlesburger, Misty May/Kerri Walsh, Albert Pujols, Oscar de la Hoya, Michael Phelps (the episode on right now) in their own sports fields. Shaq hasn't beaten anyone so far, but he plays hard.

ABC, Tuesday nights at 9pm

I stand partially corrected! Shaq vs Michael Phelps --

1st race: Michael swam 50m, Shaq swam 25m; Shaq got the 'go' when M was at the halfway point of his first 25 (so basically he got a 12.5m headstart on the last 25m); Shaq BEAT Michael by a whole second!

2nd race: Shaq lost a relay by 2 seconds, had 3 female olympic swimmers for the first three legs

3rd race: Shaq swam 50m, M swam 75m with start at same time; M won by less than .2 second!

Shaq is a pretty darn good swimmer. Michael's long time coach said he could be world-class if he'd be training since he was a kid. Since Shaq lost 2 out of 3, he had to swim with a pink flowery swim cap on with a group of synchronized swimmers. :-)

I really have to say that Shaq is extremely polite to everyone who coaches him, everyone he competes against... He talks smack at the appropriate times, but the man is a gentleman. I have a ton of respect for him. Win or lose, Shaq is very gracious.
