@@Zulu153 they put an electric shut off valve on the fuel line, then attached a pager to it. (I'm a 100% Disabled Combat Veteran, that now works on vehicles). A helicopter has MULTIPLE fuel pumps to ensure even if one malfunctions, you'll still have adequate fuel pressure to make a safe landing. The ONLY way for fuel to just go to 0 PSI like the black box said, is to block the fuel line. KOBE and woman's sports: KOBE already expressed his feelings of men playing against women. Now, think of the push towards woman's athletes in a whole (not simply Bball). More young women interested in playing outside, gets more young boys outside doing the same. Causing a chain reaction in our society building better internal cohesion while also making our next generation healthier. 2 things that go against today's narrative in a BIG way... It's just like the JFK assassination... If you pay attention to the Z film, you can see the murder on camera. You just need to open your eyes and drown out the things told to you.

That is some made up crap by the media. Of course Shaq worked hard, he was a unicorn, but you don't get where he is by not working hard. Of course, Kobe work ethic was probably harsher and more strict, but let's not pretend Shaq didn't work hard where he is. Kobe might work hard 365 days per year, while Shaq might just train hard during the camp to the end of the season, for example. Specially Shaq's post game. He wasn't just a strong guy, he had some finesse to his game, just listen to his explanation when he has the chance to do it on videos. Kobe not being that big and the unicorn Shaq is, he had to worked extra hard and be very discplined to attain the skills he did during his NBA career. So yeah, if you compare the two, Shaq looks just lazy, but compare Shaq to many of the other all stars and all stars centers since his days as Shaq attack days.

So it's not hard to see that while Shaq wasn't a practice type of guy, that doesn't take away from the fact he went hard on the paint for the team.
