MoreYou’d think that an NBA legend like Shaquille O’Neal would constantly be trading texts with the current crop of NBA players.I mean, he’s a legend. Who better to ask about navigating a career in the NBA than him?But you’d be mistaken, and there’s a pretty simple reason why Shaq isn’t one to play digital pen-pals with current players. In an interview with The New York Post, Shaq was asked who he keeps in touch with, and he didn’t hold back.”None. I don’t like athletes or superstars because they’re a–holes,” he said. “I denounced myself from being a celebrity about 10 years ago because those people are weird.

Team USA beat Canada 5-3 to advance to the semifinals after O’Neill’s pep talk.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider highlighted a recent decision by Washington state lawmakers that he believes could pose problems as the reigning Super Bowl champions look to add players to sustain long-term success.Washington’s long-standing status as a largely tax-free state is set to change in 2028 after lawmakers approved a “millionaire tax” that would levy a 9.9% rate on high earners. The tax will apply to individuals earning more than $1 million annually. Gov. Bob Ferguson has indicated he will sign the bill. It is unclear whether the legislation will face legal challenges. Schneider projected the new tax deduction could hinder the Seahawks’ ability to recruit and ultimately sign free agents. Schneider suggested that part of the team’s pitch to free agents over the years has highlighted Washington’s tax exemptions. “There were a bunch of agents texting me the other day like, ‘Hey, can’t use that anymore, buddy,’” Schneider said this week on his Seattle Sports 710-AM radio show.SEAHAWKS GM JOHN SCHNEIDER GOES VIRAL AFTER AWKWARD KENNETH WALKER III CONTRACT TALK AT SUPER BOWL LX PARADE”I think it is for all the pro teams here in town.
