The writing in USA Today makes me weep for journalism. But glad to see Zhang getting some national (U.S.) love!
Ahhh, USA Today
The only newspaper in the country that’s not afraid to tell it the way it is: That everything is just fine!
And with full-color graphs and pie charts as evidence.
Whose Axe?
OUR AXE!
Caption contest! What did Max say to his mom (I assume) to cause her to react that way.

I wonder how tall is his mother
I guess thatt Mrs. Zhang is closer to six feet than five-six.

Egads. It’s like it was written by a lazy high school newspaper writer.
Quoting Encyclopedia Britannica?
Seriously. It was like "Max Zhang is 7’3, which is tall, for a human, who tend to average around 5’9. In Zhang (pronounced: “Zhang”)‘s homeland of China, where the average height—which is used to measure tallness—of a human is 5’6, he is even taller than the rest of the population, relatively.

In an effort to fit in, he changed his first name from Zhaoxu (pronounced JOW-shoo) “because my name is so hard to pronounce, I wanted to find a name that would be easy,” he says.
Huh, didn’t know that. Hard to blame him though. I can just imagine how people (myself included) would butcher ‘Zhaoxu.’
The #1 greatest threat to America: BEARS
So, his real name is Zhaoxu Zhang?

Zhang Zhaoxu if you want to do it the Chinese way.

Why not ditch all the funky spelling and just say: Jang Joe-Shoe.
He should have chosen Joe instead of Max.
Joe Jang.
Although, is it Jang like, “the phone Rang”, or “I like it when she wears that Thong”?
Or, maybe that’s Jow, as in Wow, instead of as in Joe.
Oh, I get it, Jow, rhyming with Yao (Ming).
Big Yao.
Little Jow.
From the land of Mao.
…(how white am I?)
Can we get a movement going for calling him by his actual name, and leave Max behind? He’s getting famous enough to have his Chinese name back.
Huh, while browsing around, I found these interviews and, frankly,<a href="http://" > lowlights of Max vs. Canada during the World University Games this summer.
I don’t have enough time to sit around and translate right now – but maybe this weekend. Also, it’s interesting how much more confident Max is in answering questions in Chinese.
Thanks! Ah, Chinese TV. I spent about 5 months there, and that clip kinda made me miss it in a way. It seems they didn’t really try to collect much footage, so they didn’t have a lot of good plays or anything to showcase. Also, Max didn’t seem to be as focused as he usually is.
