Get rid of Yao?

  1. YES - on moral grounds, especially since he likes his country.

    It seems like some of the Chinese posters here are super sensitive about anything relating to China. You guys take the bait every time, it never fails...

    Well ... Hitler would also have the potential of a good man in himself. Hitler was not born as a wicked man, his hatred of the Jewish people made him malicious and this hatred must be battled. But this doesn’t mean that there was not also lying dormant some Goodness in Hitler. A wicked man can be tomorrow a good man. For this we have to fight.

    Some guys are supersensitive, no matter what. I see most Chinese posters here are just having fun and being sarcastic at the same time.

    as much as people make william hung out to be a sucker, you have to give him props for his individualism, unlike some of the posters here from china who act like the Borg who just care too much for their 'nation or country' instead of their own goals and happiness.

    this thread for example, is a joke. it was meant to be a joke. any person who thinks 'individually' would come to that rational conclusion. any person programmed by their government that 'if topic=china bad then topic=hate china' believes that EVERYONE IN AMERICA hates China.

    William hung doesn't represent asians in america or asians in asia, he represents himself. and he cashed in too. the american way!

    You are super sensitive to feel that other people are too sensitive. If you can become less sensitive, you would feel less about people being too sensitive. You take the bait every time when a Chinese poster say something, it never fails.

    Hilarious! Reminds me of the saying "just shoots from the hip".

    Too bad Dalai will be labelled too soft and not aggressive enough. And his glasses...probably will get in the way in physical play. Perhaps his next "reincarnation", the 15th Dalai Lama? Only if you could wait...

    I had visitors come to my door in the middle of the night and suggest that it may be better for my family if I change my vote.

    We should rename our franchise on moral grounds since the Chinese invented rockets.

    A majority of "no"?

    Remember - if you want to keep Yao, you are pro-genocide and hate freedom.

    Some Tibetan prospects to replace Yao once we ship his commie, freedom-hating, genocide-supporting ass out of here.

    There are certainly too many who think the Rocket's didn't exist before Yao :(

    I am sure there are a lot of people didn't 'know' the Rockets existed before we drafted Yao. But it's dumb to imagine that they 'thought' the Rockets didn't exist before we drafted Yao. See the difference there?

    ^ Just an example. The fact that I didn't know you drive a BMA doesn't mean I thought you didn't own a car.

    How about just beat Yao and his family up and burn his restaurant down. Also, attack him when he bear the Olympic torch. I mean, these are peaceful way to handle it anyway.
