    I still say that Steve Francis picks him up at the airport. Who do you guys think will be there to pick him up?

    Today my neighbor, a attractive girl, told me that she will act as the air hostess on the Yao's airline. :eek: She is a beauty and Yao will love her. However, what i concerned is if Yao have enough energy to play against spurs after he go off the plane.

    And, just to reiterate, when people (some on this board) were bashing Yao's workout in Chicago last May, you have to take into consideration that the loooooong flight will add to Yao's fatigue. So have some mercy on him, he's gonna need some rest. I flew back from Japan a year ago and was basically jet-lagged for a week.

    But I'm sure they'll try to get him in for a pre-season game or two.
