    It is one of the biggest sports newspaper in China. They invited Ming to write down his experience and feelings at "Yao Ming Page".

    Something in yesterday's "Yao Ming Page":

    Ming worte that the facilities of Denver training center are very good. There is even some person to do laundry for the players. (In China, Ming and other players have to wash their own clothes). He didn't like the food there. Fortunately, he brought some noodle soup and beef sauce from China. His favorite food is not steak but rice. In the interview he answered "steak" just because they asked "what is your favorite Western food?".

    He said that he is a little boring at Denver. He watched the baseball games on TV to kill time. He is planning to download a software so that he can go online to browse some news. (How can he download software if he cannot access to internet?)

    The consulate of China at LA invited the Chinese players to have dinner before the game with USA. He complained that he had to sign and take posture during the dinner so he could not enjoy his favorite rice.

    Sadly, this will only bring up the Rice jokes again.

    Also, I think Denver is probably one of the most boring places on Earth. But I've never been. Still, its the one of the worst. :D Poor Ming.

    Hmm... I'm still waiting to see Ming on this board. HEY MING, YOU THERE?

    Houston has some excellent Chinese restaurants. At least the one near a Best Buy in the new China Town cooks food that just suits most Chinese. I heard their chef is a real chef not just a Chinese who can cook. I hope Yao does not have a strong preference to Shanghai style chinese food, but again his mom should be around for some time.
