Yao Ming and his new bride Ye Li continued their busy week by hosting a dinner reception for their national team teammates in Beijing on August 9th.

One newspaper had to sensationalize the fact that Yao Ming got “tipsy” by using that word in their article headline. C’mon, does that have to be the thing they highlight? Give the guy a break! He rarely drinks, he just got married, this was a celebration, and his teammates were egging him on. That happens, so let the guy be human for once.
