But Shaq wasn't talking to Ming. He was making fun of the way Asian people talk.

Your just flat wrong! I heard the interview. I didn't just read third hand accounts of the inflammatory portions of an article on ESPN Insider. Yao Ming doesn't speak English and Shaq doesn't speak Chinese so if he is going give Ming a message it's gonna be nonesensical. And my Spanish wasn't garbled it was a nonesensical parody.

And no your statement about me being a dumbass black boy didnt' bother me. Speaking of apples and oranges, however, I should mention that there is quite a bit of difference between calling someone dumb (stupid), and calling someone weak (Likely to fail under pressure, stress, or strain; lacking resistance). So your analogy is crap.

I love the Lakers too. Heck, I was at game 6 in the finals against the Pacers.-

It is just that Shaq just can't seem to get his huge foot out of his mouth. Sometimes he acts like he is 12 years old.

I just wish they'd all just shut up and play. First the Sacremento "Queens" remark, and now this. Sheesh.

My analogy is only crap to you because you have failed to grasp it. Please explain the difference to me. Both are adjectives used to describe certain personal characteristics. And I think you are being untruthful about my remark. If I were in close proximity to you, and I said dumbass black boy, are you telling me you would let that remark pass without any noticeable response from you?
