In an interview with ESPN, Shaq states that video games along with fast food society have caused kids to become pudgy. Shaq has resently gotten a new reality show which helps kids get into shape. Check out the quote below from Shaq:
"First, only 6 percent of all schools in America have mandatory gym," O'Neal said. "Second, the food we eat is a problem. We're living in a fast-food society now. Third, kids aren't as active as they were when me and you were growing up. They have Sega, Nintendo, Atari. Video games aren't allowing kids to be as active as we were."
He makes a good point that kids are not as active as they used to be. But blaming it all on video games is a little steep. How about parents or lack there of being a serious cause? Just a thought.
And one more thing, Atari Shaq? You're joking right?
Oh well, at lease Shaq fu isn't destroying kids brains with another Kazzam movie.
