China Sadly Has No Idea that Yao Ming Isn't a Big Deal


With the Beijing Olympics almost upon us, many multinational companies have failed to realize that a center with no jumping ability who can't play defense and misses most of his team games isn't really that popular. "Wear the Shoe of a Man Too Slow to Keep Up with Shaquille O'Neal!" begs one ad. "Gatorade: What Yao Drinks While he Rehabs His Ankle!" says another.


UPDATE: Several companies have an emergency back-up plan to switch their spokesman to Udonis Haslem.
