More photos, articles on Yao

We have lots of goodies again from Raymond today.

Just click here to see a page with more photos of Yao having a good time from yesterday’s online chat referenced in the post directly below. After you click, you can scroll down and see Associated Press and Reuters articles about Yao saying say he’s 80% recovered from his foot surgery (not really big news since that was in Raymond’s translation yesterday — good job Raymond). But there are some additional tidbits in those articles about the status of Wang ZhiZhi and recent losses for the Chinese national team.

Then keep scrolling and you’ll see photos of Yao at a “Save the Shark” campaign in his capacity as “Global Ambassador for Wild Aid.” There’s also an article where he vows to give up eating shark fin soup, and states, “As we progress as a nation and society becomes more driven by money and the increased desire to quench our taste buds, we should take a step back and reflect.” Good job, Yao. I agree with you.

Also on that page is an article referring to Yao’s love life. Man, from a media perspective, Yao has been one busy dude the past couple of days.
