Jeremy Lin and Tracy McGrady have created the worst whiny and insecure fan bases in the history of the world. Clutchfans was the purest before these fan bases infected this great site.
Jackie Chan is a better Asian than Lin will ever be. I've actually met both of them. Jackie was a true superstar and had humor and charisma. Jeremy Lin is like the dude who plays at the church league who has nothing cool to say.
Better person because he's funny? People who don't have anything cool to say are worse persons? Some valuable life lessons.
You go meet them yourself and you can make your own conclusion. What's the life lesson from Lin? Have rich parents and be a bible study dude??
Jackie Chan is a Communist Party shill. And of course he's a better Asian than Lin...Lin is a better American.
Jackie Chan is a better American than Jeremy Lin. He and Chris Tucker saved Los Angeles from the Triad.
Maybe some people are shy or not naturally funny? There's no correlation to being a good person. And 2nd: It's awesome how you and zboy don't want to acknowledge someone becoming a permament player in the world's best sports league.
Look you and Jeremy Lin can talk about Jesus and DOTA2 when you see him. Maybe listen to some Michael W Smith and sing some Amy Grant songs together.
There's correlation if you know you met someone who is a star and someone who is not. But then again, you are trying to argue my own experiences of meeting both of them, so how am I going to stop you from retrieving my memories over the internet? Yeah, Lin is an NBA player. Which is the type of people we discuss on this segment of Clutchfans.
Tinmac's logics are incredible. Lin: Christian, no negative PR, humble, shy. Jackie Chan: Cheated on wife and had kid with mistress. But is funny tinmac: "Jackie Chan is clearly the better person because I met him and he was funny, while Lin didn't say anything cool."
maybe you are like Jeremy Lin, pushing a hardcore Christian judgment on people. Can Lin save his fans from sinning? You probably think he can.
Huh? Your initial statement stated Jackie Chan was a better Asian because he had charisma while Lin was not funny. Like.. huh?
