But being good at sports shouldnt be the idea of a great human.. idolize the people in ur life who are truly great humans. Not someone you see on tv or who gave a 45 min speech about their own success in sports. There is role models and heroes all around us.

I met this amazing man while working on a intersection in Orlando FL. He stayed there for hrs signing autographs and talking to kids, people for hrs. I told him I loved him except when he played for LSU and they played my Kentucky Wildcats. Lol took a picture with him. Great Great guy. Ty Shaq. You may never know what all you've truly have done for us reg people. Be safe

Genuine, humorous and humble. Great speech. In 1976 a lot of us wanted to be like Dr. J or Pistol Pete.

Coming in my recommended list a couple of days after Kobe has passed. Extremely heartbroken we won't be seeing him giving his HOF speech 💔😢 RIP Kobe and all the others in that crash ❤️

Okay................ I’m so proud of this man. That I got teared up at the end and when he said all the charities he and his wonderful mother provide for people less fortunate. I can proudly say I Love Shaquille O’Neil.
