Shaq-n-Stein out takes

By Greg Esposito

You have probably seen the Shaquille O’Neal, Ben Stein Comcast commercials by now and if you haven’t you aren’t watching enough NBA playoff basketball. (They almost air as much as FrankTV commercials did during baseball post seasons.)

This odd pitchman duo made quite the humorus commercial and an even funnier reel of out takes. From Shaq claiming that a sandwhich was filled with wheat jelly (is that on the Shaqlyte diet?). To Ben Stein rapping a little Snoop Dogg (is gin and juice on the SteinLyte diet?) the out takes are classic.

Let’s call up FOX and see if they will option this for a series in the fall. It solves two problems, it takes Shaq of the books for the Suns and it gives Fox something semi watchable in prime time. I mean hell ABC gave the Geico Cavemen a show why couldn’t Shaq and Ben Stein hand cuffed together work?
