Well the Big Me couldn’t shrink away into irrelativity this off season. The spotlight is once again on Kobe whether he wanted it or not. He was literally the butt of a Shaquille O’Neal freestyle rap gone bad.
During what appeared to be a drunken MC rant Shaq unwittingly rehashed an old NBA controversy….his beef with Kobe. Kazaam let the genie out of the bottle, when he directly accused The Big Me of ratting him out, thus causing his divorce.
“I’m a horse…Kobe ratted me out and that’s why I got divorced.”
It was widely reported that upon Kobe’s arrest on charges of rape that recordings of his police interview were released and amongst them Kobe had implied that he could have bought the woman off like Shaq does by giving them 1,000,000 in hush up money. Shaq’s outburst more or less took Kobe’s credibility and dragged it through the mud on the level of Achilles on Hector. He then proceeded to repeatedly ask Kobe how his ass taste, and let me tell you that’s something I did not want to even think about…I mean Shaq’s got to have the nastiest ass ever. I don’t have to tell you that most people who do some sort of freestyle rap are inebriated to varying degrees, and say some stupid things, but these lyrics had to hit home on some of the major issues both these players had with each other, and I doubt it’ll be easily swept under the rug.
Kobe was also named to the USA Olympic team, which is complete BS if you ask me. I mean the guys an MVP and a scoring champ, but he’s got serious team issues and character issues…not the type of person that embodies the Olympic spirit, and I can think of many other NBA players I’d rather have representing my country (kick Carmelo off the team as well...DUI's shouldn't be rewarded with Olympic births...how hard is it to put together a team that doesn't have a rap sheet?!?). Kobe’s social ineptitude and wonton selfish behavior over the years has in my opinion put him amongst the lower dregs of spoiled athletes. He’s surpassed TO, blown by Barry, and entirely deserves his Sports Hubris title of The Big Me.
