			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p><code></code><code></code>Shaquille O&#8217;Neal and Jim Rome are going to war on Twitter and The Big Aristotle is clearly winning the battle.</p>
<p>Shaq apparently challenged Jim Rome to a boxing match, with The Green Monster (my personal pick for Shaq&#8217;s nickname as he has now joined the Celtics) promising to donate his entire 2010-11 salary to the charity of Rome&#8217;s choice in the event that Rome somehow won the fight.  As Rome did when Jim Everett got in his face 16 years ago, he pussied out.  As a result, the following exchange occurred:</p>
<p><center><a href="http://www.bluntlystated.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Shaq-to-Jim-Rome1.png"><img src="http://www.bluntlystated.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Shaq-to-Jim-Rome1.png" alt="" title="Shaq to Jim Rome" width="510" height="350" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-437" /></a></center></p>
<p><center><a href="http://www.bluntlystated.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Jim-Rome-to-Shaq1.png"><img src="http://www.bluntlystated.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/Jim-Rome-to-Shaq1.png" alt="" title="Jim Rome to Shaq" width="510" height="350" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-438" /></a></center></p>
<p>Really, Jim?  Come on, man.  That exchange with &#8220;Chris&#8221; Everett has been and will be the highlight of your career.  There&#8217;s no shame in it.</p>
