​Never change, Shaq

Shaq has never been afraid to have a good time and get outside his comfort zone. And that has continued in his retirement. The four-time NBA champion has been an unstoppable center, a rapper, a movie star, and a sports commentator. Let's add Belgian DJ to that list. 

Now, some would say he's not doing much but dancing to a recorded track. But you can't deny it'd be awesome to see Shaq DJ stateside.

Shaq, among others, love taking silly pictures

Devin Hester gets cut

The Falcons decided to release Devin Hester on Tuesday after he missed much of last season while recovering from toe surgery. 

Needless to say, NFL Twitter didn't take long to start celebrating Hester's accomplishments so far. 

It will be interesting to see where Hester lands this season, especially if he gets to have a revenge game against the Falcons

Chelsea players catch up on their American history

We understand celebrating Ken Griffey Jr., but this seems like a bit much.
