Shaquille O'Neal spends $1,000 a week on apps

[Betallsports]

The Big Aristotle has turned into The Big Downloader.


Shaquille O'Neal admitted this week that he spends $1,000 a week on apps.


"Last week I bought like 20 deer hunter games," O'Neal told The Wall Street Journal.


The Diesel also broke down his use of social media: 60 percent is to make people laugh; 30 percent is to inspire; 10 percent is to sell stuff.

Jeez I'm not sure there are that many apps out there in which you would spend that much every single week.

Shaq's a big'ol kid though so I bet he finds a way...

I have to imagine that the $1K prob includes the cell bills and downloads he pays for among his crew.....otherwise seems like he would have to be downloading apps all day and that his phone would get full after a couple weeks???

I think I would pay a $1000 if Shaq could spell every word that he said in that interview

Damn! Since I don't have a smart phone, I didn't even knew apps cost money. I thought most of them were free.

JUST sent for a new cell phone blocker here........

what is a cell phone blocker and why do you need one?

not sure why he wants one, but they block others from using their cell phones around you.
I believe the range is 20-30 feet, some even further.
They are illegal to use in a public place, but some Companies have used them so employees don't use their cells while at work.

Here's my problem with them ... If you have an emergency of some kind and you happen to be in range of a cell Blocker or Jammer and you need to call for help... You are Screwed !
Not 100% sure if it works on 911 calls.... But a Women could be getting Raped and if she tries to call for help .... don't know if she will get through.

Been using one for yrs, once you get one you will not leave home without it............

I have a feeling if any of the guys in here saw a woman getting raped they would at the VERY LEAST turn off their cell phone blocker. UNLESS OF COURSE IT WAS CASEY ANTHONY... I'm not sure what I would do in that case.

You can get 95% of all apps for free if you know what you are doing puff_>>
