    Read the above article from Sohu.com.

    It was afternoon November 20, 2007 Monday.

    After the team practice, which was open to the media, every of the players gathered together in a room in the 2nd floor of Toyota Centre. It was the annual signature day, when they have to sign on all kinds of Rockets souvenirs, photographs, posters, jerseys, basketballs, you-name-it to be used in all kinds of promotional events/activities and as gifts to sponsors throughout the season.

    Tracy McGrady was clever and disappeared early from the team practice; he went straight to sign hundreds/thousands of photos/posters and on basketballs.

    Yao Ming followed suit shortly afterwards.

    When finally Yao Ming completed the exercise, he found his hand already numb and could not move, and there was special tattoo all over his arms, which were his signature prints from the sign pens.

    So what do you guys think about the idea: Tattoos for Yao Ming?

    Here are photos of Yao Ming and other Rockets at the activity.

    No tattoo at all !It's only a maek after sign ,but maybe a tattoo may make him looked more aggressive!

    You guys can't see it? It's all over his arms!

    Are tattoos a metaphor for autographs/signatures?

    The joke's not all that funny. Glad he hopefully won't get any. Personally, I don't think they are very classy.

    i think Yao is a good boy and he is also shy.In our chinese tradition the tattoos on the body looks not decent.If he gets the tattoos,he will be kicked away by his wife. :D

    Maybe that is his writing hand? You expect him to chicken scratch with his left? But seriously, he's only signing autographs. I don't think in the history of sports, has anyone got injured signing autographs. I could be wrong.......

    Scola really should cut his hair. That much sweat on that hairstyle's gonna be really bad.
