The Jewish commissioner of the NBA must be running some sort of Hebrew ulpan for players, with the increase in the number of Jews playing ball at the professional level, along with guys like Ama're Stoudamire finding out they might have Jewish roots and immediately jumping over to Israel for a visit.

The latest revelation is that Shaq has been going to Hebrew school as well. Is he Jewish? Will he come visit us in Israel? Will Shaq be on the next Nefesh B'Nefesh flight and come home to his brothers in Israel?

Who knows, but here are his blessings, in Hebrew, for the upcoming new year...
