Beckham to Shaq -- Go After Kobe, Not Me!

David Beckham is finally responding to Shaquille O'Neal's soccer challenge -- and he thinks Shaq should pick on someone a little bit closer to his enormous size.

David Beckham -- play video

Shaq posted a challenge to Beckham on his Twitter recently that said, "Dear david beckham, I kno u heard about my shaq vs show, anyway u will never score a goal on me, I challenge you lil man."

But when asked about it last night, Beckham said, "I don't see him calling Kobe out ... I think Kobe could score against him."

Don't dredge up the past, Becks -- Shaq and Kobe are friends now.

11. Kobe is actually a very good soccer player. He grew up playing soccer (he lived in Italy, which he speaks fluently, because his father played in the European basketball league). He has often stated that had he not became a pro basketball player he would have loved to play professional soccer.

Beckham was not being being a bitch and getting scared, he was actually being serious that even Kobe is too good for Shaq.
