Or something like that. As reported by the Associated Press:
In Light Of Cavaliers’ Struggles, Shaq Would Like To Become A Sheriff
↵↵Shaquille O’Neal is looking to continue a sideline career in law enforcement now that he’s in Ohio playing for the Cavaliers.
↵Spokesman John O’Brien of the Cuyahoga (ky-uh-HOH’-guh) County sheriff’s office says the Cavs center has applied to become a special deputy. He would have the right to carry a gun and make arrests but not be a paid, formal employee.
↵O’Neal previously served roles with law enforcement agencies in Arizona, Virginia and Florida.
↵↵This news comes at the perfect time, really, as the Cavaliers find themselves in the midst of an 0-2 start. And with a team mood last night that was described as “mostly stunned silence,” after a loss in which O’Neal “missed no fewer than 6 shots inside of 5 feet,” the mood is no doubt tense in Cuyahoga County.
↵But hey, Shaq’s getting a gun!
