China Cracking Down on Hoop Ages

[NJNetz]

For years, Yi Jianlian has been the poster boy for age falsification in Chinese sports. While his passport says 1987, there’ve long been reports he was born in 1984 and that Chinese coaches changed his age so he could participate in international youth tournaments. Now, China’s national basketball federation wants players to admit their real ages. No one is accusing Yi directly, but everyone cites him as an example.

Youre confusing Yao with Greg Oden.

Seriously, Lebron looks old too. Oden looks and have the body of an old man. Bad knee and back.

Can't trust Chinese ballers, there is a reason why there is so few of them in the NBA. The media following them around trying to catch them up to no good. Also, Yi is holding back the true superstar of the Nets, Ryan Anderson. Another reason to hate them.

Also, those cute Chinese gymnasts in the Olympics drank human blood every night to prevent aging. It's true, I read it on the intraweb.

For years, Barack Obama has been the poster boy of the affirmative action policy in African American academics. While his diploma says Columbia, there’ve long been reports he was accepted with a separate lower standard and that University admissions changed their policy so he could participate in Harvard Law School. Now, African American scholars wants students to admit their real test scores. No one is accusing Obama directly, but everyone cites him as an example.

Edit: this is for Lolz, just to show everyone how ridiculous this is.
