    Yao really show some kind of sensitivity... I am not sure if Shane finds it is funny to be called a communist.

    Yao may have good intention, but it is anything but a complimentary to be called communist here in US

    He was speaking to a Chinese audience. They would understand the intended implication, which is positive (i.e. the image of Lei Feng).

    Don't worry about communist jokes, our attention has been shifted to terrorists.

    Oh, man, that's what they should call the loud-fan section. Not the Rocket Rowdies -- the RED ARMY! With Yao on our side, it's the perfect name.

    And besides, Texas is a red state, ain't it? ;)

    This is so cool :) ;) :)

    Bear in mind though, this (poster) was from the 60's.
