    I think the subtle humor in your original posting style was lost on 99% of the people.

    Impersonating Pryuen with roll eyes and bad English. :p

    Other than leaf li and mountain cats, actually I think the translation was quite understandable.

    I haven't used those in a while, I usually just stand in line at Kroger's and use a a cashier...

    And if his wife is pregnant, then I would presume Yao is in trouble (it would mean he hit it before the wedding), but it would mark yet another milestone in the Americanization of Yao Ming...so it's all good. ;)

    This is definitely the result of some translator software.
    It was funny to read because I couldn't understand any of it lol. So I assumed the whole article was a sexual innuendo :)

    I am still looking for that TV episode posted earlier this year where the best selling author reads excerpts from his book, which was sent to Japan or China, translated into their language, then translated back using Babbelfish into english, and THEN printed. Would like to see it again. Was it Seinfeld? Sorry I watch very little TV - other than the Rockets.

    I wouldn't exactly call that particular article a good article, take this line

    "两人的爱情故事浪漫而温馨,虽然相隔千山万水,但是姚明和叶莉的感情从未有过任何动摇和波折、一直如小溪流水般舒缓".

    The love story between between the two is romantic yet warm, even though they're seperated by mountains and oceans, Yao and Li's feelings were never shakened or roughened, flowing smooth like the streams.

    Why do so many writers from Sina write sports/news articles like they're writing Qiong Yao novels :confused:

    Haven't they been married for (at least) a couple of months now? How would her being pregnant now mean they got it on before it was official?

    All the chinese posters are reprimanding Herrera because they think he's being serious. Now, that's funny :rolleyes: .

    Oh well.. my pathetic attempt at having some fun with a minor Rockets news story is lost on some.

    The point of the article is simply (1) Yao missed practice, but (2) it's nothing to be concerned about, he's just with his wife at a physical.


    In any case... I wonder why she couldn't just go to the physical by herself or with someone else. Can't the Rockets just send some random staffer or power dancer or someone so Yao can practice?

    Hell... how about sending Carl Landry and his big head? He's not playing tonight and we can catch him up on the practice later.

    Man.......did it occur to you that it could be something more important than just a regular physical/medical check or a team practice?? :D

    Are you married? If the doctor appointment is to determine whether your wife is pregnant with your first baby, would you be excited enough to go with her and be with her to celebrate one of the most exciting moments in your life? ;)
