    its a luck charm. Chinese diviners can tell whether you will have a lucky or unlucky year. You wear the red band to ward off bad luck. Don't wear one just for fun :)

    That is a gift from Bateer. It is a fashion in NBA and it has his name "Yao Ming" on it. Do you say Bateer is his gf?:D

    It seems like all NBA players are gay or something. Atleast on this bbs, every single NBA baller is gay.


    So when you Stevie, and Cuttino out at night, you know what that means.

    Traditionally, the red band should be blessed by a well respected monk and worn for bless by Buddha and luck.

    Nowadays, it is just worn for luck.

    In Spykids II they can be used for whatever reason you can think of. It's good to see that Yao has some high tech gadgets.
