Yao to Toronto 

Post#1 » by load management » Thu Aug 26, 2010 3:15 am

Raps fan here,

Yao Ming would love to play in Toronto in front of our Chinese population. Would you be willing to take some young talent from us for a Yao?

You do realize that economically Houston is more important to China than just about any other worldwide city, right?

And the answer is no. Just simply "no."

I just noticed that he said for "A" Yao.

What about Yao Hui? You know, that guy who works for Sysco in the accounting department.

DeMar Derozan for Yao Hui and season tickets in the Crawford Boxes. DEAL! :lol:

Honestly, dude...even if Yao breaks his foot again, or gets hit by a Shrink Ray I still think that Les signs him to an extension! :lol:

Maybe if you had any talent, young or otherwise.

Can I interest you in a Jared Jeffries?

We don't need young talent. At all. We have nearly too much of it as it is.
We need a bona fide star. The Raptors don't have one. Therefore, no deal.
But do you know what they call a fool, who's full of himself and jumps into the path of death because it's cool?

Only if we get Scarlett Johanson back for Yao. She can take Brian Cook's former role as cheerleader. She's easier on the eyes than Yao in street clothes.
