In a recent episode of The Big Podcast, Shaquille O’Neal and co-hosts Nischelle Turner and Spice Adams had a conversation about the internet trend involving Joe Burrow. Spice Adams revealed that Burrow was in a long-distance relationship with his girlfriend. Subsequently, the NFL legend asked Shaquille O’Neal about what Burrows could do to ‘thin the ladies’, given that he was already in a relationship.

The four-time NBA champ replied, “Joe! Cancel your Instagram and make sure mama don’t look at it either. Gotta keep your house strong! Because if Mama starts to see that and mama starts to think you are playing around, it only goes downhill from there. So, don’t even look at the gram, keep Mama happy and make sure mama’s not on it either.”

The Lakers legend advised Joe Burrow to keep a low profile online and focus on keeping his girlfriend happy. Shaq believed that internet trends could end up creating misunderstandings between them, which are hard to resolve once they come into existence.
