Jim, <As for Shaqs' making fun of Yao Ming...I'm sure he was just joking. But that doesn't matter does it? Because you and I couldn't get away with making the same fun of Shaq...no?> I remember when Fuzzy Zoeller made what was considered to be a racist remark against Tiger Woods. I see Shaq's comments as no worse than Fuzzy's, but of course, the media reacted very differently. <Not a bad stereotype if you have to have one.> You won't believe how many of my college friends didn't want to have that stereotype. Chris Rock put it best. Blacks would love to exchange their stereotypes for the ones Asians have. "Oh, look at Tyrone over there. He looks smart. I wish I could sit behind him." Tenchusatsu
