Two of the players on the Spanish team are from the NBA (Pau Gasol and Jose Calderon).  Will be interesting to see if the NBA takes action against them…

I really doubt it. What does the NBA care?

KUDOS to you for reporting on this, Andrew. If even one ball player had had the balls to say “This is wrong....I’m not participating,” this would not have happened. I have heard from people who’ve lived in Europe that folks over there can be very politically incorrect.

You are right Elena. I spoke to a couple of Spanish friends of mine who have lived in the States for a while and they both said that in Spain people are not PC at all. In fact they would find this funny and cute. Go figure!

Are you going to report on the new photos?

This photo is an outrage. I saw the Spainards sorry apology in my local newspaper. They said that they are sorry “which was a sort of sorry” for the photo, but they didn’t think that they did anything wrong. They consider the photo as an affectionate gesture to the Chinese. “Look guys! We are making our eyes like yours, so now we look like you!” LMAO GET OUTTA HERE WITH THAT RACIST BULLCRAP!!

I still can’t believe they were this stupid to pull off something like this and STILL do it.
