Or limit the appearances to an extent. The man tries to pitch too much.... papa johns, gold bond, epson ink jets, icy hot, Frosted Flakes, auto insurance... dude is becoming more irritating than the sonic commercials, liberty mutual and AT&T combined... over exposure isn’t a great marketing strategy

Dude has to have enough money now to cover about 15 generations.

I mean...I imagine he gets a pretty good size check for doing these commercials

I love Shaq, but I've noticed he seems to be in every other damn commercial lately!

He's partially invested in a lot of the companies. Just trying to get a Magic Johnson empire going.

He’s probably the most marketable human on the planet

Just an FYI. He owns a lot of Kristi Kreme franchises..., his downtown ATL franchise burned to the ground recently

It did not burn to the ground. It did catch on fire though and is closed. I drive by it all the time.

Shaq is a likeable guy so he's a good sales rep

I’m fine with Shaq doing his thing. It’s certainly more appealing than Cam Newton playing QB or dressing up in drag.

Commercials like these should be reason enough for him to step away.

I down voted you, then took a second look. I guess you're right.

Heard him on a podcast- he claimed he doesn’t pitch anything he is not a fan of or invested in. Gave the general ins and icy hot as examples. The general was the first place he got auto ins when he got his first car. Said it was the only group he could afford

Icy hot - he just said he had a thigh issue once in a game and got it on his junk and had to leave the game
