Shaq Disses Kobe
tinyurl.com/53spdz - As every diehard basketball fan knows, there is no love lost between former Lakers' big man Shaquille O'Neal and current superstar Kobe Bryant. While there has always been tension in the air, nobody knew just how much animosity there was between the former teammates until Shaq jumped onstage at a New York club and dropped this freestyle, dissing Kobe and poking fun at the fact that Kobe couldn't pull the trigger in the NBA finals without him. Although Shaq has come out and said the hard-hitting rap was all in good fun, the only reason he probably came forward was because it showed up on gossip megasite TMZ.com. Remixes and spoofs have already popped up on YouTube.

Street Soccer

If you thought Ronaldo had some skills, Gaillard does his best to show you that you don't need to be on the pitch to score spectacular goals.
