The Cowboys don’t have to overturn reality for Shaquille O’Neal to offend over 1.6 million people. Big Diesel just doesn’t want the Chuckster’s team to win. While Charles Barkley is putting his money on the Eagles going for consecutive Super Bowl trips, Shaquille O’Neal is obviously rooting against them, in front of Gillie and Wallo no less. That warranted some serious upping of the stakes.

The last time Shaq bet against the reigning Super Bowl champions, he claimed he’d dress up like Charles Barkley. This time he’s going to ‘dress down.’ The Big Podcast returned with Philadelphia’s faves, Gillie Da King and Wallo 267 from the Million Dollaz Worth of Game. Shaq chose violence when he asked them about the Eagles going all the way.

The champs are 5-2 right now, not exactly in bad shape. Gillie could comfortably say, “I know we going to be in the Super Bowl. I don’t know if the Chiefs is going to be there. But I think the Chiefs got a good chance to get there. So, I think it’s high.”

Shaq’s not really a betting man, but he didn’t like that claim. So he bet, “y’all will not be in the Super Bowl.” 

Wallo pressed for a reason and got a typical Shaq response. “Because I’m a Cowboys fan.” So now he’s got that studio full of Philly fans doing the Eagles chant…

Big Diesel doesn’t care about the Cowboys right now. In reality, the Dallas side currently has +9000 odds to win the Super Bowl, ranking 20th in the NFL. The last time they made it to the big stage was Super Bowl XXX, where they beat the Steelers 27-17. On the other hand, with +1100 odds to win the Super Bowl and continue its dominance, the Eagles rank sixth-best in the league.

But Shaq doesn’t want the Eagles winning again so bad, he told the room, “Since I’m trying to embarrass Philly, make me do something that make me embarrass myself. This what I’ll do. I’ll get b— naked, and y’all could put feathers on me, and I’ll walk around the city in feathers.”

That sight’s going to be… something. Can you picture that at the next Eagles championship parade? Gillie can’t, because he shut that down pretty quickly. So, after this, they negotiated for a while and came to a (better) solution. But it still didn’t seem too pleasant for the big guy…

Making a risky bet is nothing new for Shaq

The only time Shaquille O’Neal likes Philly is when its neighbor, Hershey’s, is hyping up his Shaq-a-Licious XL Gummies. After ousting Joel Embiid from the Big Man Alliance and crushing the 76ers’ hopes, he went after the Eagles. He wants the Philly side to lose so badly that he previously wagered that if the Eagles won their season opener, he’d wear a black dress and a wig like the one Charles Barkley wore in his 2023 Weight Watchers commercial. The Eagles won, and Shaq’s yet to fulfil that bet.

This time, he’s proposed a risky bet because it’s the Super Bowl. There are a lot of times Shaq has not held his end of the deal after losing, but he might do this one for the heck of it. If his proposal to strut around in his birthday suit with only feathers for modesty is giving war flashbacks to that pink Speedo, it’s for a reason. Fresh into his retirement in 2012, Shaq re-wore his hot pink Speedo on national television after he lost a bet to Jimmy Fallon.

That’s a visual best left in the 360p dungeon of YouTube. Gillie Da King was not about to revive that. So he switched it up, but pressed right at Shaq’s anti-Eagles nerve. “You got to put the actual JoJo outfit on. The whole Eagle thing with the deal.”

JoJo is like Gillie himself, in all his Eagles superfan glory. It’s how he’s partying inside the Eagles locker, reacting live to Eagles games on his TV, wearing Eagles gear, and his signature Noggin’ Boss hats.

Honestly, Shaq dressing up like a diehard Eagles fan would be more sinister than what he’s proposing. The hoops legend is a little overconfident that it won’t come to that. But Gillie’s going to clip this up and keep it ready for when he’s bringing the Big Diesel back to Philadelphia to eat his words.
