NBA All-Star to Taiyuan, one of the worst reversals I can think of.

He'll sell lots of his Starbury brand shoes in Taiyuan. How many "Shanxi Zhongyu Brave Dragons" jerseys will he sell back home? ahahahahah

Could be.

I haven't seen this one yet - I read about it a month or so ago - but it seems the NFL is STILL trying to get their foot in the door/hands in the pockets/piece of the pie (choose your metaphor) and scrapped the 1/2 hour NFL weekly highlights show that they had contracted with CCTV-5. Instead, they came up with the idea of a 1/2 hour quasi-reality show where a group of American football players are sent to China to travel around the country in a bus to teach American football to school kids...and all the highjinks that would go with that scenario.

Anyone seen this on TV here?
