SEVEN-foot tall, four-time NBA champ, Shaquille O'Neal is about to get bigger. A lot bigger.
Unlike all the celebufreaks who think they are interesting enough to have a reality show about themselves, Shaq has taken his personal quest to reduce the horrifying epidemic of childhood obesity and figured how to make, if not a game out of it, then at least a challenge. And a damned good reality show as well.
Shaq picks six morbidly obese Florida young teens who are scary-fat, not just because they eat junk food in quantities so massive they need earth movers to clean the tables afterwards, but because their parents are irresponsible enablers who'd rather have fat kids who will die early than to challenge them. But make no mistake, they disguise themselves, one and all, as concerned parents.
Hey - if you are so concerned, how in hell did you let your child reach 285 pounds? They should all be arrested for child abuse!
But I guess that's why Shaq, and not Stasi, has a reality show about fat kids.
This, however, is no Fit Kids Club elimination show. It's not about eliminating anyone, it's about helping the kids. Along the way, Shaq lets us know some truly frightening things, like the fact that only 6% of schools in Florida have mandatory phys ed classes. Dear God - no wonder Oprah built a school in South Africa!
Are you kidding me...Instead of sending the kids to fat camp, Shaq thinks he can talk them into doing the right thing. Instead of giving them a trainer, he rents them a gym. Some of them come, none of them actually work out. How he expects them to know how to work out if they've never done it is beyond me.

I didn't catch this show, but I did post it to my blog. The irony behind this show astounds me, considering Shaq has consistently been out of shape for years...smells of hypocracy. Anyhow I can't wait for the disaster forthcoming...I linked your article to my blog. Cheers.
