    Guys, relax. You know it is all fiction. This is a dead give away

    "McGrady was paying his third official visit in Hong Kong for sportswear giant Adidas, with whom he holds a life-time promotional contract.

    The company's collection of sportswear includes a T-MAC basketball shoe, which has been one of the best-selling shoes in the US. "

    Big difference. They used to use the large sea-going turtles - Ridley's, loggerheads, especially greens - but that practice ceased when they became endangered, like many species of sharks are now. Turtle soup is made with farm-raised turtles now, at least in the US.

    And yes, New Orleans style turtle soup is absolutely delicious.

    Perhaps they can genetically engineer sharks with more fins? That way they won't miss one or two?

    Haha, that's kind of bad.
    Yao should have started his campaign by telling his rich teammates first!

    Balance is key. 100-200 millions sharks caught per yr....thats just ridiculous....China needs to stick to Egg Drop and chicken corn soup

    isn't shark fin soup an aphrodisiac. maybe tmac is just sowing his oats over there before he comes back to get married.

    Hey, here in LA, you know what's the biggest attraction for those $40 all you can eat buffet?

    It's the shark fin soup, but the only problem is that it is the only thing that's not all you can eat, they only give each customer a small bowl, and that's it, no mas.

    I don't know why so many Chinese people has to have it for their dinner when they have money, I recalled that it's not as good as it seems, and it's hella expensive, maybe they choose it to represent that they're in a higher class than everyone else.
