What a bummer that he had to retire so soon in his career. I know from close sources that he suffered from several foot injuries that were potentially career ending, but he had some of the best surgeons in the business doing everything possible to extend his playing days.
Yao is everything a professional athelete should be; Skilled, humble, modest, hard-working and a great team-mate. All these great qualities while bearing the tremendous burden of being THE national hero for the largest country in the world.

- I would love to do a biomechanics study on him. The injuries don't surprise me- his frame is massive, but it is held together by parts that are meant for a human nearly two feet shorter.
- Also, does anyone know of the types of endorsements he has? He could blow lebron away in the Chinese market.

The commies also make him play during off season in the U.S. in China. That's why he was injured so many times.
I hate commies, foreign or domestic.
