    I would have figured Yao to be more of a PS2 guy. I could really see him getting of some stress with GTA and blowing away some Balla's

    The "rockHEAD rule" rules! Have your digital cam ready everywhere you go, just in case you run into a Rocket player.

    I caught Roderick Rhodes eating out of the garbage can at my house a couple times. I chased him away with a broom. He is fast. I could not catch him. I would have bashed him if I caught him.

    yeah, whatever, "Internet Tough Guy". We all know you just would have threatened to ban him then skip his Rocketball gathering to hone your Seinfeld quoting techniques.

    You talk real big for a guy who's not holding a broom. I'm deadly with this thing.

    Been reading the board since 99, know of all this...point is, it's stupid. I won't post again on this thread cause I know I've gotten off topic.. but if someone wants to make up the fact that they spoke to Yao for 5 minutes at Best Buy..then let them do it and move on? If someone says they're arranging for everyone on the board to meet him...or they're selling his autograph, or something like that..then ask for proof.

    How do you stick needles into a plastic bubblehead doll? Do you melt it a bit first?

    I believe he was at Best Buy for sure. In his rookie year one of my friends told me he saw him at Best Buy and was approaching him and that Colin Pine asked him not to bother Yao cuz he was really tired. If I were Yao I'd probably just shop at Bestbuy.com and get overnight shipping. Oh well I guess he doesn't want to have to be a hermit.

    Just for the record Best buy is Yao Mings favorite store then ask him how big his Tv is in his house and ask him where he bought it.
    :p

    Since it seems like we are on the topic of which Rocket players we saw at Best Buy, I saw Boki and Lisa Ling a couple of years ago...So that I am in compliance with the "RockHEAD" rule, here is the pic:

    [​IMG]

    The photo quality is not that good because of the flourescent lights above...they were both cool people and very accomodating

    I also bumped into Kenny Smith at the Gatsby dancing with some ugly Asian chick...thankfully I did not have my camera for that
