The Yao Standard: President Quotes Ming to Soften US-China Relations

http://huggingharoldreynolds.blogspot.com/2009/07/president-quotes-yao-ming-to-soften-us.html

Having already elicited the philosophical teachings of Turkoglu and Okur to connect with the Turkish Parliament, and Ovechkin before the Russians, in yesterday's remarks to the opening session of the U.S.-China Strategic and Economic Dialogue, the president quoted the Rockets' oft injured center, "No matter whether you are new or an old team member, you need time to adjust to one another." Adding "I'm confident that we will meet Yao's standard."
